For the time being

I think during the summer, at one point I said that "Summer is the season of music!" meaning I had things in store for 25:17, but obviously that never really fell through. See, I had things lined up, and I have things half done, but thanks to some bull shit tech stuff, I haven't been able to complete anything. Recording has become slower and harder, not to mention frequent laptop crashes and the ever so dreaded BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH... fuck. So I've had to come to a decision on what to do about 25:17 for now. With this lap top pretty much never coming out of recovery, I may just keep 25:17 quiet until I finally get my hands on a mac book. Any kind of production for 25:17 has become a burden with the current situation, and it's something I don't really want to deal with... so 25:17 is going to be inactive for a couple months or so. But with that said, I should mention that my lap top isn't complete belly up. It is able to with stand recording Naut (Acoustic project) becaue how many layers I'm NOT recording as compared to 25:17. So I figure this is a good time to pick that project back up as I already have been. I've written 3 new songs so far and they all sound great. And there is so little to recording it that my laptop barely manages to hang in there. So over the next couple months, I'll be doing lots of Naut work. I'm sorry if that dissapoints some of you, but the 25:17 thing is beyond my control right now.

Feel free to follow along with Naut at

or
The Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/Naut/9045829429)

Again sorry for any inconvenience, and I hope you will also enjoy my acoustic stuff.

Ideas

Wow, I realise I haven't updated since like early summer. I apologize. I've just been very busy with things, and not to mention having tremendous problems with the laptop (recording). With a slow laggy lap top, it's hard to do multitrack recordings, so I'm keeping quiet for now, but also for another reason. My acoustic project hasn't been touched in almost a year, and I haven't given it any exposure, so I think I should pick that back up for now seeing as A) It's been neglected, B) I'm getting inspired to do it again, and C) It's easier to record acoustic with a slow lap top (no multitrack).

So what I'm going to do now is merging my Naut blog into this one. (and btw, Naut is the name of my acoustic project)

That way all of the updates can be posted into one account. Obviously I will mention who I'm updating for in the subject title so there is no confusion. So, shameless advertising time!

I've been writing a lot for Naut lately, so expect new things real soon.

As for 25:17, I have to try and get a good recording program onto the main house computer to continue to record again. Hope you enjoy Naut for now!

The website is back up and running!

Okay, so after a couple of down time, I have finally brought back www.2517.mfbiz.com . I changed a few things and a different background, but nothing dramatic. So enjoy!

Merging (part 2)

So ehre are the first two vlogs put together as I said i would post. All the rest of the vlogs to come will be posted here from now on.

Merging

Okay, to those of you who don't know, I have started the 25:17 Vlog, and it can be found here. (http://feeds.feedburner.com/2517Vlog). But since it's main feed comes from a seperate blog from blogger.com, I decided to just merge them, it would be a lot easier to keep track of them. So from now on, all blogs/vlogs will be here in this one, so that way this will still export to many of my main accounts.

I'll post the first 2 vlogs on here within the day so you can catch up.

Vlog up and running!

So I finally have the vlog started! and I posted the first intro video!

Click here for the new vlog! (or if you have no HTML, ( http://twenty57teenvlog.blogspot.com ) click/ copy&paste that link.

New vlog blog...?

Okay, so this is just a small update.

I'm just letting you know that over the next little while, I'm setting up a 25:17 Video Blog. It's not going to really be a news blog like this one (although I may mention updates), it will just be small video updates on things I may be recording, working on, or what ever. I'll post the address when it finally gets up and running!

And also, The first Cluster is nearing completion. More details to follow.
