I've gotten into this little habit lately, of listening back to all of my recordings, watching my videos, both the solo stuff and stuff with other musicians.
I have a friend who makes his own music at home and he does the same thing, he takes it a step further and purposely doesn't listen to anything but himself for periods.
It's not a conscious thing but since I started this I have seen my style change and I'm coming into myself a bit more by hearing the things that I tend to do and changing/embracing them.
I think I've made the mistake of over doing it and I'm getting either a bit narcissistic or self depreciating at times... but I wonder if I should just let that phase ride out.
What do you think? Is this good/bad? Do you think musicians obsess a little "too hard" over their work?
