Been listening to your newest album with the wife!!
She says that we need to make a music video for you, (I have no video editing skills, and she doesn't computer, so don't hold your breath.) starring our dog and set in our cannabis garden.
I told her, that you would probably love the idea...and would likely write a completely new song just for it!!!
Just wanted to let you know that people are listening, and enjoying your music. Also, they are inspired by it ...to create new ideas based around it! thought you would appreciate that.
Peas,
Thanks so much for listening and the positive feedback! A member on the PRS Forum had a really bad medical issue last year, and when he wrote to me that my
electronica music has been used as motivation during some of his PT exercises just melted my heart to know that someone other than me was finding some value in it ;~)) Psyched that you and your wife are enjoying it and to think that it inspired someone to produce something else is nothing but bliss ;~))
On the Cannabis topic, I have written several, but have released only two (one under an artist name that I am no longer using or promoting). "
Happy 4 Score" was released this year on 4/20 (not a coincidence) and it is 420 seconds long (aka 7 minutes - also no coincidence) ;~)) The video for that is
here. It is a series of AI generated images (would have loved to use some of your girls in there), as are most videos I have done so far. My favorite
vid that I have done so far was for the song "
Midnight Noon" that I released in January this year (it is an ode to the Rock Star lifestyle)!! The
vids I did for the electronica stuff are fun as well, and I really enjoy that "random chaos" material (the likes of which I had never done before, but did as a part of the "Do Something Challenge" here on this forum and I ended up released a full album of that stuff)!
Of the material on the new album, I have several video ideas, but the video in my head for "Livin' In A Snow Globe" is the one that is most developed and clear to me! Just follow the lyrics and picture the protagonist experiencing all those things while roaming around inside the snow globe he has found himself trapped in ;~)) Check out the
liner notes for the album if you want to learn more about that song and the concepts it was built on and represents!! I truly believe it is the best song I have ever written and I have written >2,000 ;~)) I also hope to one day revisit that song and do a full studio production in a psychedelic style that I would like to pair with a video if it ever gets that far! For now, I have been working on
cover songs but am about to embark on the next album that I hope to release in Nov or Dec. Working title is "Other Notes" to expand on the "Real Notes" duplicitous theme of the songs being both musical notes and also notes from my soul/mind/heart ;~))
Your garden and homestead life are definitely worthy of a song (and probably a movie), so if a vision/theme/inspiration comes along, I will definitely write the song that comes along in my head ;~)) I could sit down and write one this moment, but I like to write when inspired, not just because I can, and I have yet to get a thread in my head to follow for your story!!! Something will pop one of these days, and you will get a PM from me with a new song I wrote inspired by you, the pix you post and your lick it like you like it point of view ;~)) Post or PM me some pix of your dog, maybe that will spark something!
Thanks again for listening and responding, I am so happy you have found some value in it! Express my appreciation to the wife as well!!
!
