been listening to the stone roses, and then in followup a guy named ian brown considered a hero by the folks in oasis singer of the stone roses, there was a concert in 89 or 90 that folks went to that really knocked their socks off the marriage of 80s " modern " beats with teh beatles sensibilities creating the new british sound of the 80s and 90s the madchester sound. the band ... what's their name couldn't remember but they owned a club named the hacienda where they kinda fostered this whole scene, whic had me thinking about where the major scenes are now and whats going on right now in music and all that.

something about these old rockers that spits out good music, take paul mccartney's newest one and this guy ian brown, his came out in ... '07 so last year. but it's cool to hear that mccartney had one out in 08 too. honestly i enjoy whatever he does hah. frankly alot of these other guys seem to come across as amateurs. way too hard on the draw and not nearly as good as paul. in my opinion anyway hah. far too many of these guys have way to hard of a grab on the way they sing and make sound.

i thought i was done

so i thought i was done with music for december but no, just got done recording for about 30 minutes as a reaction to anita being away and feeling kinda shitty about it.

also, the whole fucking thing is just one song not a bunch of different ideas so hah its pretty intense. i got the shit sorted and recorded w/ the new shit. headphones n shit. was pretty fuckin good.

trying to figure out my sound

so yeah im trying to figure out what i want to sound like, beyond just the acoustic guitar. im not sure yet but so far im leaning towards the sigur ros/radioheadian style and / or the my bloody valentine style of caressing people or at least leaving gaps in the music for people to be able to involve themselves in it for an interaction rather than a listening session thats the main thing i want people to get involved in the music i make so i want it to have those open holes in it. but yeah im not sureabout it. i like the writing ive been doing i think it has potential and i think if i apply that to some kindof music that really has the real potency im looking for then it could be a lovely marriage.

their bio from lastfm. these guys are awesome, what struck me is in the ... bio? there's this bit about them talking about how they want the my bloody valentine sound, which i kinda feel like i get, i like it as well hah. which is cool because now ims tarting to get the kinda stuff the artists themselves are saying about thier own work. i like massive tingly chords too. maybe i'll try that out. but i like this whole dance punk thing theyve got going. it reminds me of teh DFA records discs i used to get my hands on back in the day. really groovy stuff. i want to go and get some more of those hah.

Supermassive Blackhole by Muse

Ooh, baby, don't you know I suffer?
Ooh, baby, can you hear me mourn?
You caught me under false pretences
How long before you let me go?

Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul alight
Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul alight

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked into the supermasssive (Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked in so...(Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul...)

I thought I was a fool for no one
But ooh, baby, I'm a fool for you
You're the queen of the superficial
But how long before you tell the truth?

Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul alight
Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul alight

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked into the supermasssive (Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked in so...(Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul...)

Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked into the supermasssive
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked into the supermassive

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked into the supermasssive (Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstar sucked in so...(Ooh ooh ahh, you set my soul...)

2 albums to be done this month

so i have the goal of recording two records this month. the recording portion is most improtant, packaging can be done later, im just concerned with the files.

so yeah.

two albums
the welsh assembly presents anita herald and
the welsh assembly presents sandeep sehbi

and the welsh assembly is our creative group. so together we'll be working the computer and helping each other and stuff. but largely it'll be the person being featured's calls for these albums. and so for my part of it i need to figure out what songs i want featured on the album.

we'll see how well we work together. but this is the best idea i can think of. and i can already see its really rough. but im going to get something out of this either way, my songs are going to sound the way i want them to. anita also will get something that is according to her own preferences but im not sure if she'll like the final outcome. i already like how my recordings sound anyway, so i dont think ill get disappointed.

so this is getting more and more annoying. i try and bring up the details for our meeting and instead of responding coherently anita tries to repremand me for asking her to go to cleveland. what the fuck heh. fuckin bitch ;p. dont fuckin try and tell me nonsense like that. see thats the sort of shit i can do without. im not looking for someone whose going to send me daggers. fuck this shit heh. that was a deal breaker in my book heh. fucking rediculous. its fucking rediculous. why should i be fucking bothering with someone whose fucking got these daggers up her sleeves ready to throw my way. thats fucking rediculous and i certainly dont want any part of that shit. she can record my album, and ill record hers, but we wont be friendly. maybe ill take her to new york, but there's certain things that she'll get restricted from. the point is, she'll be restricted from them ebcause she's considered unfit for them rather than because she's just not meant to invade the privacy. she's a bit of a fucker and i don't need fuckers in my personal shit. she's just fucking like sitting there and im pretty sure she'll bite at any time. and this isn't the first fucking time that she's done this shit. a few days ago she fucking told me not to call her.

its fucking rediculous. i dont give a shit how shitty your schedule is, you needa give me the basics so that i can operate accordingly. instead, she's keeping her shit veiled, has plans to go to school in june? and i guess she's gonna be workin while she's in school? i dunno man. but if this bands got any long term hope she's got to be free. otherwise if i have a part where she's singing anything critical then those songs will be unperformable. so i think on the recordings we shouldnt really have much stuff on each others recordings otherwise youll find yourself in the position iw as in when the band broke and youre im my head and basically everything wasnt playable. when we already know that this shit wont work then why bother intermixing our shit too much. so what we should do is check our lyrics, and check our chords n stuff.

im guessing she's at work now.
this whole thing is crazy, if i try to contact her and she's at work she yells at me. i mean thats fucking rediculous how the fuck am i supposed to contact her at all then. i mean i need the ability to actually speak with this girl otherwise shit gets annoying. she's like, worried she's going to get punished, so she punishes her friends. she's rude to her friends why? because she's at work. it's fuckin rude. and meanwhile, im working on the music. its fucking rediculous. so thursday and saturday, and hopefully we'll be finished by then. because i think im about ready to be done with this situation. its fucking rediculous man. all sorts of bullshit, "wah i dont wanna go to cleveland im tired" what a fucking whiner man, and then all sorts of other shit. it was fucking rediculous. and then all the shit with her mom and her mom says go get a ID and she gets it. i mean the fact is im going to be myself always im not going stop being me just because you dont want me to be. im guessing she's furious because im texting her at work but its her own fucking power to turn her damn phone off man. and if she wants to bitch about it im going to stop regarding her current state as my priority. i may just text her for the hell of it because i dont need some 18 year old girl bitching at me about bullshit. im going to text when i need to, and if she wants to continue this, she'll tolerate it, otherwise she won't, and i won't tolerate her intolerance. im going to keep being me. so yeah. its fucking rediculous. now its like 4, she's meant to be off by 12, and im not sure whats going on there. but its like, how many hours, 8 hours? i guess that makes sense if she got into work at 4. then she just started at like 4, and maybe she's been in there for forteen minutes. but there's no fucking way for me to know how thats going on because she wont actually tell me what time her shit is and i bet she's sitting there getting angry to herself because im texting her but i need to know when she's coming so that i can plan my shit accordingly. but instead of making it easy for me she wants me to fucking have my schedule open as shit for her who works all the time and can never do anything. its fucking crazy man. she's got all these restrictions and stuff which is fine but she's acting like my own time isnt important so thats kinda fucked up. so yeah. i dont know what the fuck is going on there.

so i guess what i should do for myself is just take a selection of stuff from this month stick it on a cd and call it "The Welsh Assembly presents Sandeep Sehbi" and stick them all on CD and let people buy them for 5 bucks ill copywrite the disc.

makin an album

so i have this goal of makin an album while decembers around. not sure which songs are gonna be on it but i realize that basically anything can be on it. ii dunno what id put on it but i think i need somethin just to circulate amongst people maybe. but yeah i think i really need contacts. that would be really great id think. but can i go and get contacts with the info. i dunno. so maybe ill have to go find out.

definately need a drumset

man i came here played the drumset, boy am i missing it. i needa buy one thats shaped like a proper set, buts electronic. thats the main thing, then i can practice drums daily n stuff without loud noise n all that. thatsthe main thing, no noise to avoid complaints frmo neighbors n stuff. if i could id plug everything into a mixer n just use two headphones to kinda hear what we're doin, mics n stuff as well so that i could indeed live near people and still play music thats the main thing really, the ability to play the music.

to copyright, or not to copywrite

so yeah the articles about this guy whose telling us we needa copyright our songs, why? because there's nefarious characters out there waiting to copyright it if we do not, all they need to do is send a cd in with 30 dollars and its now saved as their work. but really, im not sure how important this really is. firstly i wanna learn more about this shit, like where are these copyright offices, and what exactly am i getting if i pay them their fee. i was thinking of taking all the mp3s ive done in october and sticking them on a cd, then if anyone wanted music i could give it em but eyeah ifi did this id mail them the cd and theyd send me back a copyright form with all the songs on it saved. so yeah. im not sure if i have to literally go through and type of each song name ( there's over two hundred of them ) and then fill out some form and then send them also 0 bucks. id rather visit the office, get info, then figure out if i want to do it. but yeah, whats kinda fuzzy to me is if i dont copyright it, and lets say someone does, or someone makes money off my osng, then what is teh crime thats being committed, and then what should i be bothered about. esentially its about money, making it, whether you are, or someone else is, off of an dieayou coined. essentially thats the bottom line. but im not really sure if its necessary to go and copyright this shit. its just an agreement between people about their own shit. but im not sure if its really all that important. lets say i did copyright it, then would i be able to go around and sell cds without fear and that sort.
