Sundays are days that I normally try to keep as a sabbath, so I try not to do anything toward music projects on this day. But I found myself listening to Christmas music on the way home from church and that makes my mind drift toward my own project and what it might sound like.
I was listening to David Spencer's Christmas project. He's one of the guys I am considering for production of my Christmas CD. He's very creative in his arrangements, taking old tunes and making them very interesting. So what might he do with my tunes I wonder?
I am going to try a song with him and see how it goes. There's no better way to know what it's like to work with someone than to actually work with them on something.
I sent him my "Night of Miracles" song and will look forward to hearing what he does with it. Ed Cash's company (Chris Tomlin) recommended his name to me and I've liked what I've heard of the music he produces.
Other than that, I've tried to keep my mind off the project today. It's a good exercise in controlling my thoughts. That's something God has been working on in me...teaching me to take my thoughts captive and renewing my mind with His thoughts and not letting it roam wherever it wants....which is usually toward worry and fear or in this case, obsession over all the details of a project. That's a whole different kind of elephant!
