Happy New Year

I wrote a guest blog for Outlandos Music. Check it out here: OUTLANDOS MUSIC BLOG LINK. Elaine and I have been rolling up our sleeves. We've been armed with a number two pencil and a good eraser.

This is the first time I have started into music on a project so early, and so far I like this approach a lot. I am able to work fast and stay focused on the core of an idea without getting [...]
