the journey
Anyone who has ever played in a band is well aware of the problems involved in getting together for practice, artistic collaboration, and simple "jam time" due to the time constraints of individual members , travel, availability of facilities, etc. What do you do under these circumstances when the creative juices start flowing?
Well, for the rhythm guitar/keyboard player of the small Kona town cover band Fargo, the answer was inevitable. Preferring the security and precision of recording instead of the variables of live performances anyway, purchasing some recording equipment and scouring the manuals seemed to be the way to go. Thus, acmesound was born.
In this environment, time could be allocated as available. A half hour, to mix some tracks, a late night insomnia session fueled by inspiration, or a weekend marathon, to record, layer, experiment, tweak, and finalize an idea. One person with the option to be creative without a schedule. In the end, you eventually come out with something tangible for your efforts, and if you did your job, others may like it too!
