FINALLY STARTING TO FEEL LESS LIKE WINTER OUTSIDE, BEEN MAKING MAJOR PROGRESS WITH IDEAS FOR THE RECORD. enjoying the last final steps before this is all said and done. it’s still scary to think about not having this to work on when it’s out. something that’s been on my mind and my main priority for over 6 years now and suddenly it just won’t be anymore. there’s a lot more i wanna do. for these songs, for newer songs. i still wanna take my time but i also want to push them into the world. i feel eager yet reluctant all at once which is insane lol. i dont know if i’m really even saying anything useful or meaningful in these blogs, but it’s more just a documentation of where my head is at. for myself maybe but also i guess it’s cool for others to read as well. these songs round out to about 24 mins of work and what i’m most proud of is how i’ve captured all my walks of life in that short amount of time. i think it really represents so much of me as a person and artist from the last decade and a half which was one of my biggest goals when i sat down to make these in 2020. played the songs for my friends/managers and i realized that day how much i love them. having others feel the same about them gave me goosebumps, made me feel more excited than i’ve ever felt about anything. i hope the visuals can relay even more of those feelings altogether.
really want to see new places this summer, meet new people, try to enjoy and let go a bit now that i’ve conquered this crazy goal lol. 2020 was definitely a long time ago but it feels even longer than 6 years for me. seems like i was such a naive wanderer with no direction at the beginnning and those years locked inside helped me find myself in a sad way. wish it was a more delightful journey to get here but i guess it built me up. no idea what will happen in these next 6 months, i know what i hope will. the uncertainty still drives me crazy and makes me want to hold and tweak things just another month, or two or three or four lol but i definitely need to get onto the next chapters of life and i hope this work will make those chapters pleasant. whatever you are doing, if you’re in love with it keep doing it. that is the best version of life to live. can’t wait to show u the radio.
