maximum bass in all frequencies (Patreon)
Content
hello loves.
just a short one because i am pretty much brain dead.
i have a song for you. not yet it's getting born literally as we speak
(it's sleeping, in somerville)
i woke up yesterday and i read your almost 600 comments
i fell into a pit of delicious but painful reality of life
and politics
and weather
and dismal what do we do
and overload
it took me 5 hours to read all the comments
i wrote the song last night
i finished it this morning
it's so so so so interesting writing music fast. you don't get a chance to judge yet
it's all just happening.
i went straight to the studio
i spent 8 hours there
we didn't finish
i go back tomorrow
on my way home to reward myself for working so hard i went and saw a goth band at the middle east play for an hour called Drab Majesty. if you want a nice dark wave bath of beauty, go listen to them
i am too tired to link. use google we are modern
this is me practicing/playing bass naked in my apartment last night but mostly just excited to take a picture of myself holding a bass
then i tried to play in the studio
learning curve
i'm really not great at the bass guys
but it's such a great songwriting tool
i never woulda wrote a song like this on piano
so then sean slade, who was/is in the studio with me (and is amazing, as usual) wound up playing the bass for the entirety of the parts of the song that has bass because believe me you don't actually want to hear the sound of someone learning to play bass on a song that has bass, not this song anyway
also jherek bischoff instagrammed me and asked if he was out of a job it was very funny
mostly i played piano
and organ
here's my underwear
and here's me and sean and our engineer james
this song is
so so
different from the last one
i can't believe i have a patreon and i get to do this
i looked at the wall of books in the studio today while we were on a break
and i thought to myself
i am getting paid to make music
it doesn't get old
ever
that's all
goodnight
zzzzzzzzz

p.s. I AM GOING TO HIT YOU ALL UP TOMORROW WITH HELP FOR A VIDEO IF YOU ARE ANYWHERE NEAR NYC OR UPSTATE. watch for it
fuck i am tired
