I made my left wrist hurt mighty good on Sunday.<\/p>\n
I’d been working all weekend on my NaSoAlMo<\/a> album, and I was really struggling with NaSoPiAlMo No. 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n It’s a piece that employs a very active left hand, which I haven’t developed very well. I also use the left hand to CTRL-X, CTRL-C and CTRL-V when I’m working in Cakewalk SONAR. An entire weekend of that left my wrist in a very raw state. That’s what years of being a tech professional does to a person.<\/p>\n I’ve so far recorded 20 of the 29 minutes required for my NaSoAlMo album. Tonight, I wrote and recorded "NaSoPiAlMo No. 6", a 5’30" song that quotes Sigur R\u00f3s at the end. I think this song has a vocal version in its future.<\/p>\n So far, I like what I’ve done, even if a few tracks bear too much of a resemblance to their source material. I get downright minimalistic on "NaSoPiAlMo No. 2" and "NaSoPiAlMo No. 5". Too much Michael Nyman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve so far recorded 20 of the 29 minutes required for my NaSoAlMo album.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-167","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-vital-signs"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4Bkjq-2H","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=167"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=167"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=167"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gregbueno.com\/sakufu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
