I think I've decided on my first rap-based project. I won't give any details out yet though. I also have an idea of what I want to do for my first DJ project as well. I want to do, like, a word transition mix. Where I take a key word that's common between songs and mix from one song to the next on that word.
For example. Going from the Spice Girls' song Wannabe and the Bone Thugs track Friends.
I'd play the If you wannabe my lover, you gotta get with my friends friends friends friends, how many of us have them, friends friends friends friends ones you can depend on.
And so on. The only problem is going through my slightly-less-than-encyclopaedic knowledge of song lyrics in order to build a list of music that I can transition from one to the next in that style. I'm worried that it might not work as well as I imagine it will, but I'm finding that setting goals is really helping me feel more motivated than normal.
So for now my tentatively titled projects are rapz 4 men and DJ Word Smith.
I either buy my gear this weekend, or order it next week if I can't make it to the city over the weekend. Or if I can't be bothered. They gave me a discount of about $150 for the setup and I can get a better price going in-store so I think I will do that! Otherwise I'll just get it online because the quoted price includes the shipping cost. After this I can't really envision myself needing to make anymore big purchases besides the synth keyboard, but then that can wait. There's still my car (preferably a Supra! But I might get a Celica depending on money), my globe-trotting action, and possibly some local travel.
But we'll see. I'm out.
Oh and I'm rock climbing on Saturday as well. HOO!
