I have no idea where to begin. I have done so much in such a little space of time, it's actually quite scary. I have actually surprised myself with how much I have actually done.
I suppose best place to start is back on the 5th of March 2011. Before this date I had began work on different recordings. I had started a recording of Don't Feed the Troll (Pt. 1), a new version. Musically it sounds far far better than the original lost when I got the third virus. I also started recording another new song which is the same bass riff for 'Blue Funk'. I had originally wanted the bass riff used for a rock song, so I thought I'd just do it. Turns out that this recording is a fucking beast. Great sounding rock tune. I started recording this song on the 5th. I also added to a weird mix of noises and out-takes from a project I am doing with my friend Geo. I honestly didn't think I'd be able to use the tune cause it was so messed up, but I tried it with a tune I wanted to rerecord. The tune used to be 'Liberation', an old song about leaders of the world. However I put lyrics to it I had written, influenced when listening to 'Codex' by Radiohead. The song entitled 'The Search' is about searching for people online that you miss, and would like to show appreciation to for just being in your life at a point when u needed them, but not being able to find them.
The Search
There are so many people I have abandoned,
So many faces I have lost,
I feel a quiet saddness,
Inside my thoughts,
I'd like to speak to you one last time,
To say goodbye, the way I should have,
To have one last moment, Ending on a peaceful silence,
Indistinguishable faces flicker past,
All the names their all the same,
And amongst the smiles and cuddles,
I don't see you, none of them are you,
You are that needle in a haystack,
And I can't find you, no I can't find you,
There is an emptiness,
I will continue to search for you

The tune that was/is 'Blue Funk' I coupled up with the lyrics entitled 'Operation Payback', a song about about denial of service attacks made by group anonymous on visa, mastercard and paypal and postfinance websites due to freezing accounts of julian assenge. And how fbi are putting out 40 search warrants for members of anonymous.
Operation Payback
Sneak in the backdoor,
Denial of service,
They wish to cripple those whom, you serve,
Pull the plug,
That plagues your conscious,
Actions of the weak,
The power is switched off,
Operation Payback,
Shots from the backrow,
Collective underground bunker,
Operation Payback,
V Territory in their hands,
State attempts a system restore,
Error, error, error,
Hello e-crime unit,
The renegade youth of cyberspace,
FBI, FYI, are on your backs,
They round them up,
Lock them behind a firewall,
Empty the recycle bin

I managed to get vocal recordigs of all three songs, and I must admit, they are not the best quality. The chorus in 'Operation Feedback' sounds cool; the vocals in 'The Search' are good but there is a lot of hissing behind them. The hissing is a problem with all of the vocals. I am not hugely happy with the Don't Feed the Troll (Pt. 1) lyrics. So I may rerecord them. However all finished versions are up on youtube at wullaewrightmusic.
So on Sunday 6th of March 2011, I sat in the livingroom listening to the new songs on my ipod and enjoying them. My wife studied next door, so I picked up my electric guitar and played away. I came up with a funky sounding song, but sounded more something I'd put on 'Slowly Slowly Catchy Monkey'. So I kept playing away, and came up with a great new tune. I recorded it on my Blackberry. Then I added vocals using lyrics entitled 'Honey-trap' about Julien Assange and American and Sweden using anything to capture him. I then got the opportunity to use the computer, and with an hour or so, I managed to recorded two guitars, bass and put drum together. In an hour I managed to record an excellent sounding song; in half a day I had managed to not only record most of the song (oh and a guitar solo too), but write the music that day, and have lyrics for it. The only thing I haven't done to the song yet is add vocals. I will use a day I have, when free, to record vocals for this, and maybe for all three new songs again. I'll see. But some good good musical progress over the last few days. I'm very very happy. I want to do more. The Anonymous album is becoming a rock album, which was partly my intention, but I didn't think it'd actually work out like that. Good times indeed.
Watch this space,
