I KNOW i said that i would finish the previous blog soon, so i really apologize, but TOO much has happened since then and now that I have to start a brand new post. I will, however, start where I left off:
After the session with Flamboyant, Chris and I caught a movie (although at this time, i forget which movie exactly) and from what i remember, I couldn't find a ride home from the movie house, so i walked. On Saturday, I recorded a song for my makeshift romantic outfit that was requested by someone, a cover of a bright eyes song that Im quite fond of. I'm not done, but of course, I'm going to post it anyway:

Sunday was a work day.
From Monday, all the way to Friday, Flamboyant was in the studio, so we got a massive amounts of songs done, including several mixtape songs, as well as completed some unfinished songs for his album, including Touch N Go (wherein which I do my best Timbaland Impression). I'll post it when I have it on hand, but for now, take my word on the fact that they are Top Shelf stuff. Also, within that week I acquired Nickasaur officially onto my Itunes account, so thats great. As of the time I am writing this, his EP, Carry =On Monday!!! is currently processing and will be on Itunes within a matter of days, up 2 about a week and a half. I also made for him a beat for his cover of the Backstreet Boys' I Want It That Way:

Nick really can produce and record himself; I simply answer any questions he has while looking like im actually doing something, Here's a song he produced and recorded himself this same week:

Friday morn, I went with a friend to go out of town to visit another friend. I was there over the weekend, returning on Sunday to go to work. On Monday, I began working on a fall out boy cover for my A Makeshift Romantic outfit, which didnt take that long. Granted I didnt finish that day, but I still put it up on my Myspace, just for fun. I asked Chris to do the background vocals, suprisingly, he said yes. I also recorded Flamboyant. I recorded Flamboyant everyday this week, not to mention Chase on Wednesday (i'll post the song later). I also worked with an artist I havent worked with in a while, a girl named Ruth.
Ruth:
I met Ruth through Flamboyant's girlfriend Paige. I went out with the to the Hookah Bar one night, and I struck up conversation with her. Hailing from New Zealand, She now attends college out here. I also found out that she, in fact, sings. So ends that story.
Today, I recorded 2 songs with Flamboyant, and watched Street Kings with Chris. Great Flick, go watch.
When I got home, Chris sent me his part for the Cover Song.

I like the way it turned out. And so, I sleep. But before I do, I must give a HUGE thanks for Flamboyant and my buddy Christian. Ever Since my Car stopped running, they have been my means of Transport. Thanks, guys, and see you tommorrow at the kegger at USC.....

Carpoolizms (and other isms....)
I apologize for the lack of updates (to the six of you that DO, in fact read this.... and for the 3 of you who can actually READ). Busy is an understatement. I find myself doing about six to 10 songs a day, and often forgetting to sleep in between days. It sounds hectic, I know, but the odd thing is that it only sounds hectic when looking back on it. The fact that I do several genres of music gets tough sometimes, mostly because you forget which mode you're currently in. Granted, you are still you, but.... its hard to explain. I suppose the BEST way to explain it would be to say that although you use the same part of you're brain to make all those different types of music, you use different parts of that part of your brain. it that got confusing, then hey, welcome to my life. hmmm.... let us take the day back to last friday, due to lack of upates....
last friday, chris was in fact fortunate enough to join me on the adventure of the day, so that was good. Flamboyant recorded an old-skool inspired ditty, featuring both chris and myself, called think it thru:
