Today was so awesome, thank you again to the super creative Joe Scala to bring out some very interesting side of my music, I'm telling you, he's a freaking genius. We worked on two songs today "In This Ritual" & "Awake Your Observer", and he decided that we approach them differently, which was a great decision. Here is what happened. "In This Ritual". This has a more meditative vibe to it, so we approached it in a similar manner. I woke up at 6:48am, with first light, simply brushed my teeth, had some water at room temperature, no vocal warm up or talking or singing of any kind.

Since it has both a front and back facing camera, it would be perfect for vlogging. So I used it to take all the video for the vlog. When I got home, I wanted to simply download the videos into my PC and edit them like I normally would.
