Yet Another (Another)...

Another week off has come to a close.  I must say that I feel really good about the "Lost Weekend" remix and it truly went very well this week.  I'm not done, mind you, but all the preliminary work IS done and now it's just a matter of listening to it repetitively and making any necessary revisions.

A lot of memories have come up for me this week when working on this album.  I have a feeling I'll be writing quite a bit about it as the project progresses.  That was a really interesting part of my life, 1997 - 2000, and it's kind of amazing to see how long ago that was now because it only feels like maybe a decade ago to me personally.

I'm feeling really good about my newest template and mixing plan overall as well, and I'd dare say that it's working.  Hell knows, it's been a very long time in the making.  Now, to be honest, most albums aren't quite as easy to mix as this one but still.  I truly feel like I turned a page and have put my lessons learned to good use.  I kind of feel like I finally graduated the "course" and earned my diploma.

I guess I need to start thinking about the artwork for the release.  I'm certainly going to do something similar to the original album cover but I think the booklet and/or tray card will be completely different since I was never super pleased with my designs from back then.  I've found working on album artwork to be much more satisfying over the past 5 years so I'm not too terribly stressed about it but I do want to start thinking about a plan.

Also, I've been pondering heavily what work I'd like to get done for the rest of the year and then also what I'm putting on the docket for 2026.  It's quite a list, let me tell ya, and it should be interesting.
