This album was a partial endeavour into all branches of trip hop, spanning all of the eras of music. I said in my Hidden Gems Vol.I EP that i would make a jazz EP, but it proved more difficult that once thought! It still happening though; I've just got to get my music theory up to par. I think there also might be a return to Drum & Bass/Electronic genres, in the form two/three different EP's.

In the one year period since the release of Hidden Gems Vol.I, I have also been learning Ableton as well, which has been interesting (Primarily used to be FL only). I think looking at workflow and attempting to refine it is a must for any artist. It brought me to the realization of just how much workflow affects the sound of the output you create. Trying to refine a process while still retaining the exact same sound is a difficult process! :P

The concept behind the EP is multi faceted. Everything from the cover to the names to the audio content inside the tracks themselves tells a story. I've used a lot of layering inside the tracks and have really tried to provide emphasis and tension where i felt necessary to create amazing moments in a track. There is more information about the thought process of making this EP in the behind the scenes text file if you download the EP from bandcamp. I would love to hear what your understanding of the songs were, feel free to send me an email or message!

Every band you've ever been in, every song you've ever written was really just a way of beta testing what works and what doesn't work. Honing your sound as a musician. Well that's what Cold Blue Stars is, a combination of all those years rolled into one new and exciting band.
