Yeah, not really happening

OK, so "album in a month" may have to be re-designated to "EP in a month" or, more likely, "one frickin' song in a month".

Fourteen tracks ain't gonna' happen at my current work rate which stands at one four-bar riff in four days.

Therefore my revised objective for the month of February is to simply write a new track, maybe two if I get on a roll. All things considered, I want to produce some quality rather than quantity.

I suspect that all these produce-something-in-a-month challenges simply aren't the kind of motivation I need, and that successfully completing National Novel Writing Month in 2005 was a fluke. Any substantial piece of work produced in such a short space of time is not going to be of the best quality and I don't feel inclined in expending so much energy on something that will basically need to be completely redone from scratch in order to make it any good.

No, I want to concentrate on producing one or two good pieces of music this month rather than fourteen tracks of shite.
