Working on a new album. I haven't made a new full on album in almost a year lol. And what I mean by "full on album" is an album with a minimum of 9 new tracks, or more, and either leaving it like that, or adding more tracks, to make it bigger.
This album, if you couldn't already tell, is titled: "tribute to myself" and that's for a good reason. You see, lately, I've been looking back on some of my older songs and albums, and overall projects. And haven't been willing to accept, how great they were at the time of production, and release of them.
But recently, I've been looking back, and actively actually listening fully, to each and every one of these tracks, and appreciating the fact, that these were tracks, I put my whole entire heart and soul into. But at that time, they didn't get much recognition, as most people didn't know I made music at that time, and tbh my music was okay quality, but not great.
But I was very limited at the time, with what I could make. Considering I only had a budget pair of cordless earbuds, as a microphone, and my literal phone, as the producing device lol.
But anyways, enough rambling haha
This album, is about paying homage, to my younger self, from when he first started making music. And when I first started putting my heart and soul, wholeheartedly into every song I ever made!
And I actually took this pic today, in the exact same place, as the one in the next photo (literally! Compare the next one to this one, and you'll see the similarities!) and the reason for that, is because it's imagery. Imagery of quite literally paying homage to every track I ever made.
And what better place to start, than the literal album that changed both my career, and my life as a whole! "find myself" was about me trying to find my way in life. And find love for myself, family, friends, and everything I ever enjoyed.
And I did that! I found myself! And I remember the entire process of that album! From start, to finish. It only took me 5 days to make. On average I'd write, record, and produce 5-8 songs a day. As I made 19 new tracks, and the rest were either ones I had prepared on the rack, or ones that I thought were wack, but decided to add anyways to fill slots.
But yeah, that album was kinda rushed, but I'm still incredibly proud of it! I personally think it's some of my best work ever! And that's saying alot, as I've made over a hundred songs!
But yeah, so that's why this album mainly pays homage to that album. As that album, is in my opinion, the best album I've ever made! And I'm actually planning on making a remastered version of it too, so stay tuned! XD
But what I'm also planning on doing with this new album, is going back to my old sound aswell. My old sound, style, and everything! Back when every song I'd make, was mixed with an insane amount of reverb, and special effects! Back before everything became mellow lol
And the reasoning for that, is for the sake of treating my old self, with respect. As like I said, I haven't been liking my old songs, till now, so it's a great way, to relearn some things lol
But anyway, I'm done explaining, I'll let you all know when it drops! THEN GO ENJOY IT!! XDD
(Oh, and btw, there's more meaning to the cover to this album, but I'll leave that, for you to figure out! Haha) Just go do your research! 👀💻📱🎬📄♓🎵
