Kids,
Other than the Exchange Bureau release made up of rarities and unreleased tunes, I haven't been able to put together any sort of album or EP for a while. Though I've been inspired to do individual songs, I can't come up w/ an album vision that appeals to me for more than a few days. It's like, rather than a single album vision I have multiple themes, attitudes or angles that I want to explore at will. This usually means that all these great and diverse song ideas usually get lost because I'm trying to force all the creative energy of a given time period into a restrictive mold. And then I think, "Aha. I just need a new album concept." Then the whole stupid cycle happens all over again. Shit. That's the best I can explain it. Enough...
Fine, then. Fuck the album idea.
Instead of trying to "finish an album," I'm going to imagine that there a lots of shelves. As I make a song, I'll decide if it needs it's own shelf or if it makes sense to group it with any preexisting songs. So yeah... no albums. Just a series of shelves. Maybe after some time I will release the contents of shelves in groups. I guess we could call these groups albums or whatever. Hahaha!!! Why do I torture myself with definitions? Hahaha...
Anyway, I will release songs as free digital singles right here at this site until there are enough to group together as a release package. Or not. Perhaps some of it will serve as demo material for a release on another label? That would be cool. I really want to stick with this single-song plan. It seems to make sense. Understand?
Boy, am I sick of typing.
Love,
Jason
