Tribute: The Process



Almost seven months passed since I posted my first post describing the work on my Tribute project. Some part of what was planned is being successfully materialized, some things had to be corrected in course of time, and some ideas abandoned. Nevertheless, the result tends to be even more interesting than it was expected in the beginning.

One of the most important achievements is discovery and consolidation of my own vision of the idea and choice of the way it is materialized. I had to make decisions several times. At such moments doubts do not leave me alone, but my brain works due to their existence. Who knows, maybe in different situation, in different time and place I would resolve those problems differently, but today it is this way of working that gets me closer (significantly closer) to my goal.

Sometimes it is sudden “aha!” that helps. It is pretty possible that that is just a result of brain work, aimed at resolution of the above-mentioned task, but when it happens its nature is not that important. Not that important when you go forward on the wings that you feel behind your back.

The amount of “a few more songs” which should be added to the group project has now exceeded a dozen. Fortunately, sense of limit helps me to resist the temptation of doing more and more. After all, the songs that will enter (let’s call it) “the album” must prove to have the right to live. And I have lot of work to do to make this happen.

Given that the frequency of my coverage of the “album” creation process does not change, the next post has all chances to describe the accomplished work. We’ll see....

P.S. The Group Tribute album has not yet been finished as well, but it also grows up to become Something Big!
