Just remembered when I was in the process of signing my first major label record deal how one of the A&R guys at the record company was really disappointed that I didn't want any cocaine

Like, really disappointed, and kinda angry When I was signing my record deal I turned down all the booze and coke they offered me, and this really pissed a lot of people at the record company off

I don't regret it

I can't think of a single instance in my life were I regret not doing those things

I LOVE IT WHEN THINGS WORK!!! I find it helpful to pay attention, and notice when things go well

Particularly things that could go wrong

This breeds the sort of mindset that is able to find solutions

And see a way around an obstacle

Rather than throw hands up in despair

With tech like Unreal Engine, phone mo-cap etc

we are rapidly approaching the point where what happened to the music industry happens to the movie industry:

My granddad was taken from his school and put in a Russian concentration camp

Bless them 99.99999% of your ancestors has to shit in a hole in the ground and wipe their asses with leaves

But keep broadcasting to the world on your pocket sized supercomputer about how awful the world is and how much your life sucks

I’ve been engaged in an experiment in extreme hyperoroductivity all year

The idea, simply, was to get in the zone

Then refuse to leave Practically, Get In The Zone, Refuse To Leave, means entering a state of flow, then maintaining activities that keep that state going

In my case making music almost every day at a very high level, very fast and barely consciously, not pausing to question my decisions
