New intro audio: a mash-up of Dan Benjamin saying “Again, I sound like a conspiracy theorist, here, I’m aware of that.” on episode #80 of the 5by5.tv podcast “The Talk Show.”

I’m still writing the intro to my book (Like Any Gangster: Selected Writings 2006-2011); February release might be moved to March (next month).  (I also discussed the book in #24.)

This month I spent writing time with mostly writing songs: 14 in fact.  I was inspired by (though not directly participating in) the fawm.org site where people share their tracks from their “February album writing month” where they’re trying to write 14.5 songs this month.  3 of the 14 songs I managed to write will probably appear on the upcoming Neener 2 album.

Up and down sound quality on the podcast. Comparing iOS audio recording and Mac OS X audio recording.  GarageBand, Logic Studio and Reaper.
