So, here we are.
Nothing new has happened. A side project was started and has stalled... not sure what will come of it: nothing probably.
But, luckily (or unluckily, depending on how you feel about it) it has reinvigorated me into trying different things within my own music. Sadly, I do not have a drum machine anymore. It was not fulfilling my needs as an artist. I wish to own a simple drum kit in the future, but we will see. The full band sound I was hoping for was, as expected, scrapped. On the other hand, I am trying a new approach to my music, in that I am just going to do whatever the fuck I want to at the time.
This means, if the song is 1 minute long, so be it. If it is 3 chords over 8 minutes? As long as it feels right, it is in. Will this bring in more listeners? No. Will this alienate anyone from ever listening to me? Probably. But it is liberating as an artist to just do it until it, whatever it is, is done. In that mindset I have created songs I think are unique and my own.
Here is the tracklist for the new album (in no certain order):
On My Way Again
Song of Rhyleigh
Out to Sea
Belong...
Useless Machine
Awake Forever
Waiting for Malachi
Thinkin...
Nothing Wrong
Change Everything, Become Everything
Old Videos (Tell Me Who I Am)
For now, the title is still "Casanova Nights." But that may change. I do have some album art I am working on, though, but I might just stick to the old design, or scrap it all and do cardboard sleeves. Who knows? I sure as shit don't.
Well, until next time,
PDA
