"Take Off Your Inhibitions" reviewed

"Take Off Your Inhibitions" has been reviewed by Gods of Music. As with "Ebony," the reviewer liked the song itself, but had issues with the production. The production critique doesn't surprise me, as both tracks come from an album which became a project for a class I was taking - overall, it was a learning experience. I'm certain that my production techniques will become more refined as I continue working on them. I still have much to learn, but my pursuit of the "perfect album" shall be tireless.

Speaking of pursuing "perfect albums," I mentioned a while back that I am working on a new one. I've yet to come up with a definate title yet for it, nor have I even a definate set of songs that will be included. I will say this: one song is nearly finished and I have a feeling that people will either love or hate me for it once it is available for public consumption. Personally, I can't wait for the backlash.

There be dinosaurs in Pittsburgh

About a week and a half ago, I left work and walked to the Steel Plaza Subway Station to find a statue of a tyrannosaurus rex wearing a business suit and sporting a briefcase standing outside the entryway. It was a curious thing to see, especially at 6:00 in the morning, so I walked over to take a closer look. Protruding from the base of the statue was a pole with a plaque affixed to the top. Upon it was the name of the sculpture: "T. rex VP."

I would later discover that this sculpture was part of a series in a project known as DinoMite Days, sponsored by The Laurel Foundation and The Carnegie Museum of Natural History. If nothing else, this will give me a reason to walk around the city. Hunting dinosaurs is a worthy distraction in my book. I've found six thus far. Though I could "cheat" and find out where all of them are going to appear, it's more fun to try and seek them out by guessing where one will pop up next. I'll be doing that until the exhibit gets close to closing, in any case.
