someone who's doing some things
I’ve been waiting for this one ever since the last release back in June. I’m so pleased that they released it and kept the story going. If this is anything like as good as the last 2 releases it’ll be amazing. When I’ve listened to it I’ll let you know the verdict.
I’ve always been interested in space. I’ve always been interested in the history of it and this exhibition reminded me about a lot of the things I’d heard about and lived through in the 70’s. When the space race was at its height, when the USSR was launching Soyuz missions and the Salyut Space Station was being used. There was so much good stuff in there, so many interesting artifacts.
It was exciting. It was amazing, and this exhibition took me back there and reminded me a lot of what it had been like when those events happened. I think it’s also given my interest in space a bit of a nudge too. I’ve always been interested, but I haven’t done much about it for a long time. Perhaps I should now, perhaps I will.
I’ve been wanting one of these for a long time. I’m really impressed at just how neat a little device it is. I’m going to make a little video of it in action soon. It really is pretty cool.
I’ve listened to the album and the actual physical version arrived now. It’s rather lovely though. A nice package. It matches the album.
I’ve posted on this before, but here’s a little reminder. This event will be completely amazing, or at least I hope so anyway. It’s starting to shape up now and really come together. So I plan to be posting a few more details about the event quite soon and show some of the things I’m going to do be doing and showing there, and some of the amazing people who’ll be there.
If you’re interested in attending or being a part of it in some way, then take a look at this page on the SoundLab web site.
Here we are, Movember has started, and I’m all ready for it. If you’re interested in seeing my Movember page it’s here, please do take a look. I plan to add a lot of stuff to it over the whole month of Movember, so you should always find something new there.
If you can support me with a donation I’d really appreciate it.
I actually thought this was a brilliant little story. Really good fun, very well written and well performed, and thoroughly enjoyable. If they can keep this up throughout the whole series. If they can it’ll be amazing.
I was thinking about this a bit more the other day, and really I’d like to see the ability to prototype directly in the app. That would, without a doubt, be the coolest thing possible to do with this app. It would be nice to play with a set up and be able to create stuff in the app that used not only the bits you owned, but others, and even prototype bits, or bits on the bitlab too.
That would be my preferred experience.
So just a few first impressions really, after only listening through once.
Firstly, I loved it. It was very story focused. It was funny, and sad, and poignant, and beautiful. I really enjoyed listening to it a lot.
So I’m expecting to really enjoy it on all the subsequent listens too.
Another problematic album to listen to, but it’s actually very good when you give it a chance and listen to it with focus and care it is well worth it. There’s a huge amount of depth and beauty in these songs. There’s always something new to find in each one, but it does require patience and that’s not always easy. Neither are these pieces, but just because they’re not easy does not mean that they’re not good. They are.
