Silencio Barnes — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:32:13 PST

This is a test to see if one or the other of two plugins I downloaded work. One is old and reported to no longer function and the other is called Socialite, which they say may no longer work as well. They are supposed to cross-post my blog entries to my myspace blog. So let’s [...]Related posts:

On Thought and Nothingness

Silencio Barnes — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 16:44:18 PST

On Thoughts and Nothingness or, It is What it is It is What it IsLife is full of contradiction and inconsistency. But life is just life; it’s the human mind and the collective conscious that adds so much complexity to something that is so simple. Consider this: We live and we die. That’s it. Everything else [...]Related posts:

Practice Words

Silencio Barnes — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 14:26:09 PST

About Practice Words If somebody were to ask me what Practice Words was about, I’d tell them that it’s one of those “I’ll kill you “lyrically”" tracks :) There doesn’t seem to be a lot of artists making those types of songs anymore.

The Problem With the Idea of Freedom in the U.S.The problem with freedom – the idea of freedom – is that no one wants it. That is to say, no one wants to put in the work necessary to achieve it. The sort of concerted effort needed may be currently beyond our reach. We don’t [...]Related posts:

Mixing and Mastering My Sound

Silencio Barnes — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 12:10:38 PST

The sound of my recordings have been a major problem for me for a while. I record my audio in my room, not a studio. I try to mix it to the best of my abilities, which are, admittedly, non-existent in this area. I suffer from a deaf ear to musical nuance as well as [...]No related posts.

Asking for Help

Silencio Barnes — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 16:10:47 PST

Today, my horoscope had this to say: You should find that people are more than willing to step up and help you in almost any way you need them to — but of course you’ve got to swallow your pride and ask directly first! I’m not an avid follower of all things astrological or anything like that, [...]No related posts.
