8 am dream

21 June 2008

I’m sorry once again…I’m not sure when I’ll be able to make regular updates, but I’ll try to get on the ball as soon as possible!

I’d been working on the guitar part for 8 AM Dream since I lived in Brooklyn, and I even had a vocal melody and everything, but I didn’t like how the vocals seemed to overpower the guitar; I really wanted to have the guitar part stand out on its own and have any accompaniment be just that: background.

It seems like I have my best dreams, or at least my most memorable dreams, when I go back to sleep after waking up in the morning. I’m not usually able to sleep all that much longer (although I do my damnedest to try), but the sleep I get is awash with detailed dreams that have the best chance for me to remember them. I’m not sure if this one was reminiscent of a dream, but I think I named the song after I woke up from one. Yatta!
