Recording Thoughts...

So, this is pretty new to me - blogging. Not used to things being so… personal.  I’m normally scribing documentation on the online-front to do with my band, Suspire.  However, this does feel like a breath of fresh air.

Over the next couple of months I will be embarking upon a new recording project. It will comprise of a handful of compositions on drums, inspired primarily by a particular incident that happened around four years ago. The day my grandmother passed away. I will elaborate.  But not right now.

Right now, I am trying to hunt down the small, very old-looking book I found in a small bookshop called Voltaire and Rousseau, in Otago Lane, Glasgow (those four years ago).  I cannot remember the author’s name, nor the definite title of the book. I do know that this book is located in Rutherglen, at the home of my great-auntie Mary – my grandmother’s older sister.

I thought it was called something along the lines of The Greatest Thing in the World.  The online search rings a few bells.  But. I still cannot be sure.  Time will tell.

The blogging idea is mostly to record thoughts, processes and the general day-to-day growth of an artefact.

Next week, I will be uploading some short video recordings of infant ideas.
