Back to uni!

Howdy all :) Finally back to uni today, managed to not sleep at all (literally awake all night) but still made it in... this semester should be really good (apart from those bastard morning trains... fuck London is shit before 10am and on Saturdays) as one of my big projects is to build a working distortion pedal!!! I'm spending the next week doing a bit of research and thinking of some concepts for the design that won't get me kicked off (unfortunately my first idea of the Dirty Dick pedal shaped as a penis isn't the best idea lol). Going to keep on the perverse lines as usual... might call it the Super Trashing Interface (STI for short lol) or Super Terrific Distortion (STD), or even Silly Levels Uber Trashed (SLUT). The other one that wouldn't be allowed would be the Bargain Bucket shaped as girl parts but once again, can't see me getting away with that (would be great though, could glues pubes on and everything hahaha).

So yeah, conceptualisation is the order of the day there, as well as a making a plan and working out what I need to do and by when. Really looking forward to this, should be both challenging and rewarding, and will hopefully inspire me to take on more DIY projects at home which is a really cool thought :)

In other news, work on the follow up to A Finger Too Far has started, been writing a part 2 to one of our favourite tracks off the first album via email with Tom... going to try and get the beat down as we go as the mood of the song changes but should be really good fun! I've also (Mark you'll love this) started smoking roll ups as I'd find myself getting through 20 decks too quickly, especially when playing with sounds on the computer etc so roll ups are a good counter to that problem.

Oooooh finally before I go, I had some good news today... over the xmas period I had this audio electronics project due in that took me countless sleepless nights to try and get my head around and actually do... now I would have been happy with getting just the 40% and scraping through it but somehow I managed to get an A grade hahahaha!!! That prick who sent me a shitty email when I asked for some advice from others on the course - FUCK YOU MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!

That's it for tonight, I'm out! G :)
