Finished the track I was working on, and... I don't like it 😭 It doesn't really know what it wants to be. It's neither one thing or the other.

Ah yeah! Now that's what I'm talking about.

Remember LIBER ELEVEN? It’s back. Never heard it? Even better, you’ve got eight remastered tracks to get acquainted with. Out today on vinyl, CD and download. theblackdog.bandcamp.com/album/liber-...

Time to complete the annual Self Assessment for work. Objectives don't get finalised until March then you do "year end" in October. Ours is not to reason why...

Cruelty! Cruelty, I tell you! Power adapter has arrived. Thing that power adapter will power has not. It's sitting there, teasing me.

Another hour listening to the same 16 bar loop. Tweaking knobs, fading things in and out, sometimes just sitting there convinced of the sad beauty of it all. No recording, no extra programming, no progress beyond the surety that this should exist — needs to exist. But not tonight.

OK. I think three hours of getting tearful and lost in the same 16 bar loop on repeat is probably about enough. Goodnight sky people 🥱 Stay squelchy 🫠

Started something on Friday night but couldn't decide between three different acid lines. Went up to the studio and it all took a complete left turn. Might be a single release as it no longer fits the idea for the new project.

Made the joke "What's a dead magician's magic word? Abracadaver". Didn't realise Abracadaver is a villain in the Power Puff Girls, the title of a couple of novels, and a character from The Wizard of Id comics. Oh well.
