CSS3 testing

I added some text-shadow to the headlines since ff 3.5 now supports it.
:D

Will try more later.

My music making habits as of today

Before I moved out of my parents house last year in February, I used to sit on the sequencer all day making small clips, loops and tests.
But now, after focusing on other things, I find myself making one track every 2 weeks or so.
It’s better that way because I don’t wear myself out all day, and I get to feel refreshed and actually have a creative spark once I sit down to make a track.
I have many times thought ‘ok now I’m done with this genre’ but then later I hear something someones done and I get new inspiration from a different angle.
I wonder how long I will be making music for, because lately I’ve found myself with a ton of ideas, and I released the Wasteland and Xenoplasm EP’s because of that.
I still have more ideas in the same vein I want to make and release too.

My music has gone a bit away from melody and more onto sound design, which is actually refreshing.
I know some people see that type of music as ‘just sound’ but i can’t stop loving it :)

Also, I plan to write reviews of most of my favorite albums over the years and create a full review section.
I find writing reviews is fun and enables me to think more about what I’m listening to.
Either way I want to build out my website and be more active, which may also include me commenting on news and stuff too.

Uploaded Mobius and Garden to last.fm / Air Space Express EP

I uploaded The Third Mobius and The Ice Garden albums to last.fm
Last.fm didn’t add them automatically in the albums list anyway.

You can download them there now for free.

—————————————–

Also, I have given a new EP to Nik over at kahvi.org, and he’s going to release it.
But it will take many months because the queue is so large.
I reckon it will be out this winter though.
The name of the EP is “Air Space Express” with the following tracklist:

1720. Coax – [Air Space Express] Eclipse
1721. Coax – [Air Space Express] Sunshine
1722. Coax – [Air Space Express] Kobolt
1723. Coax – [Air Space Express] Dark Corridors
1724. Coax – [Air Space Express] Blue Day
1725. Coax – [Air Space Express] Xerxes
1726. Coax – [Air Space Express] Pale Blue Dot

So some old tracks too that haven’t been released yet but have been uploaded to my site before.

Cheers!

Back from 3 day trip

So I just came from the trip, and it was amazing.
The weather was absolutely astounding and we got really lucky.
Most days were spent water skiing, riding a banana on the water and other sports.
I’m going to be uploading images of it next..

Dreams

I’ve been dreaming more in the past few months than I have my entire life, and while this has numbed down the impact some, I still like them a lot.
A couple years ago I would wake up after a dream and kind of obsess over what I had just seen, especially weird scenery and the likes. The images would be in my memory for an hour so after waking up.
Now, I don’t obsess over them, but I enjoy them while they last. It’s kind of a break from reality/wakeness, like drinking or something.
I enjoy any altered mind state really. But they do make an impact in how I think about the world around me.
Earlier today I was out having a smoke, and since it’s summer the sun never really goes down and it never becomes fully dark.
So at 11 pm I was out, and there was a strong wind, lots of clouds, and a kind of eerie gray look after it had just rained.
It was very dreamlike, and that’s what I like the most.

I always try to absorb natural atmospheres in nature, and tonight was perfect for that..
All hail our brain:)
