So I hadn’t checked my site in a while, and I guess my payment method wasn’t working for my web hosting service. I got it squared away though and the site is back up. Not much new to report. MPC 3.0 has finally come out of beta and is in it’s “gold” or “final” version. It’s pretty tight and Akai has actually collaborated with Native Instruments to bring some plugins from NI’s “Play” series to the MPC standalone universe. It’s pretty cool and I’m definitely hyped for it.
I’ve been working on music more, and I want to start adding lyrics to my beats. I know I’ve probably said that in the past, but it’s very difficult for me to find the time and motivation to do it. After work I’m usually so tired that I just gel at my computer desk and MAYBE work on music a bit here and there. A lot of times I don’t even touch my DJ setup. I usually try to wake up in the AM and get some beatmaking and scratching/djing in before work.
I really wish I could find more time to spend on my MPC and DJ setup. This weekend coming up I have a 4 day weekend which, even though I have things to take care of, should give me more time to work on my music as well as some other things I’ve been wanting to tap into. With that said, after that 4 day weekend is up, its back to the grind again where I have to spend majority of my time working and not doing what I really want to do. Ah well, such is life right?
I’m really glad my website didn’t get deleted because of missed payment, and I’m going to start posting more on here. I have some reviews I need to get up in my reviews section and some spirituality stuff to talk (type) about as well. Peace to you reader and I hope you have a good rest of the week. L8r.
