Brass Hogs
My sax has been on my bench at work for a while, finally got it going again. I'd like to do more with my horns but my hours of playability and dynamics do not blend that well. Head chart, improvised tenor trio.[audio:http://documentofadaydream.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Brass-Hogs.mp3|titles=Brass Hogs]

People of the Wind
They travel from town to town, briskly tickling the blades of grass sprouting throughout the hills. Without you knowing, their children play pranks on your hair, their warriors destroy cities, and the romantics blow kisses to the dandelions.[audio:http://documentofadaydream.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/People-of-the-Wind.mp3|titles=People of the Wind]
Things You're Bad At
Repairing instruments for a living is pretty cool because you get to play test a bunch of things you normally wouldn't get your hands on. This is about my fourth time playing an oboe....Im pretty good at bad oboe playing. I tried to balance it out with some clarinet...but Im not to good at that either.[audio:http://documentofadaydream.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Things-Your-Bad-At.mp3|titles=Things Your Bad At] G: "How many snakes have you charmed?"

Licking Electrical Sockets.
[audio:http://documentofadaydream.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Licking-Electrical-Sockets.mp3|titles=Licking Electrical Sockets]It was drawn to my attention today that I have been skimping out on actually writing in this blog. Although it's main purpose is for audio documentation, I still enjoy writing when I can. For the most part, I like to let my music speak for itself and only use the title as a descriptive to what will be heard and what I was trying to imply through sound. More efforts will be made to do little write ups here and there.
Documenting all this takes up a lot of time so certain songs end up being short, unsubstantial, and/or humorous do to dealing with daily life. There is tons of ideas in my head for the future of this project and I hope to make a lot of them happen.

Squids
Creatures from space and poets of the sea.For they're home sick and misunderstood, Their works never seen and words never heard, As ink does not adhere to water.
