Sun, 7 January 2007 point and click the notes.
it is not an easy road.
music finds a way.
...
This is my first official GarageBand composition. I was playing around with it, clicking on the notes on the floating tiny keyboard pallet, and, before i knew what i had done, this came out. {I was in a Skype call, if i remember rightly - live on the w0kie network (i think), and someone in the IRC had asked me a question. I had opened GarageBand to check if it could record in 24-bit linear, and i got side-tracked (as usual).}
Needless to say, i got hooked. I began lusting for MIDI controllers, did some research (a lot of research), and formed the dream of using a Kawai MP8 Professional digital stage piano - which, unfortunately, costs a couple grand. But, this has been the imputus for me to get off my duff and score as many gigs as i can manage. I still don't have the MP8, but should be getting an M-Audio Radium 49 delivered tomorrow. {Hey, it was only a hundred bucks.} The 'point-and-click' method of music composition is just too frustrating; i had to do something. ;-] And so, i started this Podcast in anticipation.
Enjoy! ~joan
