Lexincrypt
This Descent


From the folks behind Boundless and Symbiont comes Lexincrypt, another aggressive electro project that's done well enough but fails to linger in the mind. So let's talk about something else today.

Namely, that it's been three months since I started this blog, and I'm only at the 61-minute mark. It's possible that this project will take close to a year to complete. I'd figured on about six months. And who knows? Maybe it'll fall somewhere in between. The trouble is, I keep acquiring new CDs. If only I knew how to stop...

And then there's the issue of traffic to this blog. Uh, there isn't any. Turns out I'm pretty clueless about how to drive eyeballs (barf) to my site, and I have trouble even convincing myself that this is something even fans of this kind of music would be interested in reading. So I've come to the realization that I may be doing this just for myself. Just for the simple exercise of writing every day. Forcing myself to do so. And maybe that's OK. Maybe attracting a large audience isn't the sole reason you do something.

After all, how many copies of This Descent do you think Lexincrypt sold?
