if you immediately heard n'sync, shoot me a dm cuz we old in this bish.
I'm so excited for the work I have ahead of me. It's all towards my baby (the album). i can't wait for yall to hear it!! I don't know if it will change anything but I know it's for a purpose that its coming out now, after so long. This album has been 4 years in the making! unknowingly too, i mean we started out to make a 3 or 4 song EP, and junez just said, hey lets just vibe out and record over the next while and see where we land, choose a few tracks and put out an EP. But then we accidentally made banger, after banger, after banger, in my opinion anyway haha. we couldn't cut ANY from the project, so the EP, funded by canada council, ended up being a whole ass project!
i just realized im legit supposed to writing the press release for this right now and instead im like, lemme hit the blog i havent touched in a min, and by accident, im basically writing the press release…i may have to copy and paste some of the above, dang i went off for a min had to catch myself. ok ok so anyway, I think maybe I look like it's easy peasy stuff we do, but it's hard work, i just love every aspect of it so i'm having fun hehe. and money is weird for me, but thats another story. might hear about it later on a something i cant mention. hahaha. list of things to do before the end of april? most even before end of march? lets see:
press release for bbbo; press release for album; bbbo release date; bbbo video promo ready; schedule posts for may; schedule posts for april; practice blue jay sessions set; song for karlotta; find funding for 2nd video; apply for grants for vids after album; write liner notes for bandcamp/vinyl; reach out to vinyl lady; sort professional pics; finalize divorce ish; learning to make beats; credits for all instruments on album; ummmm i think that's it, although i'm sure im forgetting some things lol.
And i'm super excited doing all of this, i have a white board to sort out what i do after work each day. i was able to change my schedule to 6 hours a day at my job instead of 8, which helps a lot, starting to work on my art from like 2 or 3pm in the day is a blessing. i can still be in bed by 9 or 10 most time, unless it's a session or show or something. aaaahh sorry im listening to the album rn and my fave song just came on. oooff i cant wait for yall to hear it. did i say that already??
It's kinda cool too cuz i'm sure if ur reading this, it's cuz you've been to a show, so you've prob actually heard a song or 2 from the album, but what's amazing is that instrumentation and harmonies and verses etc have been added so it's not going to be what you saw me perform. a lil same same but diff. shit im writin the press release basically aren't i. ok well i should prob just go do that. I have so much more to say for the blog tho..
january was amazeballs cuz i got to sit in the room whle junez mixed it. being a part of that really made me realize, it's my baby, this is happening, it's coming out! I wanted to create something you can listen to years later.
