39'24 at the final reckoning. That makes it the shortest studio album yet. Have they run out of ideas? Are they getting lazy? Or is that all they needed? Time (and people who like to give direct negative feedback online) will tell.
Fun facts!

Right well that was a long day. Off to mastering tomorrow though. Now begins a series of fun facts about the record - fun fact #1:
Unlike the first 3 records, but like the fourth, this one doesn't take its name from one of the tracks on the album.
Fun, eh

As I was saying.

Blackcap today - definitely happening

First chiffchaff - spring is here

Glorious.

In a sane world this would be a resignation offence. Deliberately wasting large sums of taxpayer money and immiserating tens of thousands of people so you can pretend to meet a target. Outrageous.

This one is done. 1 left, then just a heap of logistical and collaborative headaches to get through, plus recording it all.

Chord of the day - F#m(add11). Give it a try - 2 2 4 2 2 2. You're welcome

Writing this 8th piece out of 9 is really becoming rather complicated (/compromised) by my lack of piano-playing ability. Ho hum

I thought the first one was good but I'm in absolute awe at the imagination, creativity, originality, humour, pathos, score, production design, voice talent etc etc etc etc in Across the Spider Verse. I can't begin to comprehend how you make something like that. Incomprehensible

Lovely to see Pale Blue Eyes taking to Village Underground like ducks to water last night, and to see so many PSB fans there to support them too. Good work all round
