Details:
The new album is entitled ''Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.'' The album, 10 new tracks all composed and arranged by myself, has a more stripped-down, softer sound than the previous critically acclaimed release, ''What A Day!'' and possesses a consistent band line-up throughout. Every track came to life since the move out to Colorado Springs, and I think this shows through. There''s more sunshine on this album. More altitude. A strong southwestern influence, as well as a new found love for jazz and classical, is evident (to me anyway). Out with the ''epic'', 5 minute anthems (Give, Riann) and in with the 3:30 chamber-pop tunes. The album was recorded entirely at home and at Tom Park''s grandma''s house in Woodland Park (that woman can BAKE! Food of course.)
Unlike with ''What A Day!'' there has been ZERO consulting with people in the business regarding these songs. It''s been so freeing to shed aside my youthful delusions of grandeur, triumphantly raise my middle finger to the industry and say ''this is me''. In that way, I think the album resembles ''Gimmick'' more so than ''What A Day!''
It''s hard to accurately describe your own work (and even harder to not look like a self-obsessed prick while doing so), but I will say that now that I''m mixing and listening to the entire thing in sequential order, I believe it''s just a very fun, very pleasant listen. I hope you''ll agree with me!
Special thanks to Nick Davey for letting me mix my album at his house and eat his cookies.
