A New Beginning

Now that we are somewhat acquainted, I think it's time for me to show you a little more of myself. From here on out I will accompany each post with a song of my own creation. I originally wanted to start with the first song I ever made, but then I realized that I don't want to waste your time.

It is my hope that our growing relationship will be mutually beneficial. I want to provide you with a deeper look into my mind and the sounds within. I want you to feel what I feel and hear what I hear. I want to tell you things that can't be expressed with words. However, far more important than what you will learn about me throughout our time together, is what you will learn about yourself.

I've always had these sounds practically blaring within my skull - fighting and clawing their way out through any musical outlet I afforded them. But just as any artist, be it a painter, sculptor, or even a watchmaker (that shit can get pretty crazy), I have had to work very hard at refining my technique. An idea is only worth so much if you can't express it accurately.

For a long time I took a playground approach to my music. "Anything goes! Just try it out and see what happens!" This worked for a while, but as soon as I wanted to dabble with and create more complex sounds, I realized that I needed to work on my technical skills. Therefore, I cleaned out my toolbox and started fresh. The track attached to this post is my latest creation. It has been somewhat of an obsession for me over the last couple of weeks. I've played it over and over again while listening ever so intently. I wanted it to be a perfect portrayal of what I felt when I started it.

What does it make you feel?
