What I’ve got to do…
I don’t do New Years Resolutions - they die to quickly and rarely get achieved. I’ve just got a list of things I want to have done by the end of the year.
Write and record a 12-track album:
…This initials writing a minimum of 150 tracks over the course of this year, 12 of which I’ll choose and record myself; a totally independent project. I have my own ground-rules on what genre(s)/styles and suchlike I must stick to. Whatever the end product, as long as it’s done it’s done. I’ve got no idea if I’ll put anything out on the internet. This will also include saving money to by more musical equipment.
Gain a full repertoire and Jazz theory:
…This will compile mainly of Jazz Standards and other Jazz tracks. Reason: I have an absolute love of Funk music, but Jazz for me is the key to all contemporary music regardless of popularity. Through this I’ll use any resources to develop the theory of Jazz music.
Listen:
I need to listen to more music and read more reviews and be in touch with the industry. There’s so many times in our lives when we just hear music, without really listening to it. Since being out of education, I’ve slipped out of the habits I had and have let myself down. It seems like the time and as good as any time really to make amends.
General things… Read more, stay in more, save more money.
I want to use this year to be a better person and use all the time that I have more wisely. Last year I seemed to be busy all the time, but I never found that I was really achieving anything that worthwhile to shout about and that’s a first after a whole year.
watch out for this one, she’s an unknown star at the moment!
