It’s Friday and I have to admit, it’s time to move forward. I have started composing again and it came at the most unusual time.

Jamming with the Writer

The first piece came to me while reading an acoustic guitar magazine. I was just noodling a bit with 2 of the chords in the exercise given by the writer.

It’s like jamming with the writer and you come up with a different riff. Then you develop it over a few days. Not intentionally, but sort of like living and breathing the piece. Adding and subtracting from it each time you pick up your instrument.

I have since added a chorus and have started developing a 3rd bridge type part.

Hopefully soon I will put up the first demo.

What accidental or “on purpose” composing experience have you had lately?

Decided to get my studio set up.

So where do you put what and what should be in reach?

In my situation I use audio and video in the studio, plus some web programming. So where do you start?

I have a main computer work station (web, R and D, uploading and video. The music audio computer is a separate station.

Now the room is about 15′ by 11′ and 8′4″ ceilings. Hard wood floors and plastered walls. 1 window and a single door entry.

There is the placement of the equipment, monitoring position, acoustic treatment and a video back drop for video-webcasting.

Stay tuned to see how I pull this of.

Do you have any ideas, challenges and/or solutions for home based studios? Please feel free to share your thoughts
