April 09 Update
A little update for you all on all things mmd. Previous posts told of our housing drama, so it is expressed with relief that we have finally arranged a new place to rent! As of late April Galloway Street Studio will be no more and a short move 3 blocks away will see the beginning of Dorothy Avenue Studio. Preventing the homeless problem and having a nice cosy house to be in will certainly help R and I think about what the next move is and how to do it. In the meantime, I’ll have to spend the next few months trying to figure out how to best set up all my equipment…
We are also very happy that as of the end of this week we’ll be off on a much desired holiday from work! For a few weeks we’ll be out driving around western Queensland like we did last year – more desert adventure that will hopefully lead us to Mount Isa. It’ll be food for the soul and good thinking time. We’ll also be spending some time in Brisbane catching up with some folks and items of culture. For now, it’s adieu to computers, and adieu to the web (said with much joy).
By the way, Hunz’s finished album is now up online for streaming listening here. I had a listen to it today and did some reflecting on the mix work I did on the project back in the flurry of activity during Feburary. With the benefit of hindsight I can detect one or two micro-moments where I think “gosh that should be 5% more THIS way”, but otherwise I’ve happy with what is there. It was a great opportunity to help Hunz get to that final point, and to have a hands on experience with his fantastic music. I’ll keep you posted if he does a physical release.
