In pursuit of a new genre, my projects have been getting more and more complex. I love science fiction and I love symphonic rock... so a blend of synthwave with the latter just makes sense to me. I'm in the process of making a full album, something I've wanted to do for 5 years now but never had the time to even consider. Thankfully, living in Japan and working a job that is generous with time, this is becoming reality.

Sadly, I've come across a roadblock. My last song had to be split in 2 - all the synths and recordings in one project then all the orchestral elements in another. The reason?

RAM.

My laptop has 16gigs of RAM which I thought I would never fully use. Well, as it turns out, yes, I have used it fully and now I need to think about upgrading it beyond this point if I want to make these kinds of songs.

At least my new 7 string guitar is incredible - beyond anything I could have wished for considering it only cost £500 or so... It's inspiring me!
