Tue, March 23, 2010 at 2:01 PM So it has been almost one month since I released my first EP "The General Analysis of Nature" and I have just tabulated my stats from Soundcloud and Bandcamp.

I would like to thank everyone who has listened/downloaded and helped spread the word. Thank you so much.

It’s a little like National Novel Writing Month, (NaNoWriMo.org) where writers challenge each other to write 1,700 words a day for 30 days, or the great folks over at February Album Writing Month (fawm.org), who encourage artists to write 14 new songs in February. Maybe they don’t have “Grapes of Wrath” or “Abbey Road” at the end of the month, or maybe they do—but that’s not the point. The point is they get busy and stop waiting around for the muse to appear. Get the gears moving. Do something."
Wed, January 27, 2010 at 9:54 AM Over the last 6 months or so I have really been struggling with putting my live set together. For me the problem is how to make an Ableton Live laptop set "live" enough to be entertaining. I'm trying to run visuals through VDMX while playing my Ableton set as well... What I really needed was a way to practice live, without an actual audience staring at me. So of course the internet is the answer. Enter USTREAM (http://www.ustream.tv/)
USTREAM gives me the ability to stream my live set and (with some 3rd party software) visuals. I can also record my broadcast and view/embed it.
Below is a recording of my first live streaming set on USTREAM, follow me there: http://www.ustream.tv/kurtlrnz
