Occasionally Wonderful

This one really means a lot to me. Last spring, I was at a pretty low point in my life. I wasn't getting anywhere in my academic, social, and creative life. This project serves as a sort of memorial of that time, a time when I forgot who I was, and let all the negativity of the world surround me. I wasn't something, I wasn't nothing. I was somewhere in between. I was still. ..

I've been working on this project for a while. Originally I was going to put it out in the summer, but it didn't feel right. At that point I just knew that I hadn't grown enough from falling off the wagon a little bit haha. I just knew it wasn't the right time. So I buckled down, and wrote a few songs. 

The oldest one, "home," I wrote probably around this time last year. The difference between the two versions is insane, it's pretty amazing to see how much I've learned about music since originally making it.

Not that this matters to any of you, but I always like when my favorite artists share a bit about their process, so here are a few fun facts about this project:
1. "Moonrise" was a freestyle.
2. If you listen closely, you can hear me beatboxing alongside the drums in "Ripped Jeans & Ferraris"
3. The instrumental for "Nosebleed" was originally meant for a deleted song off the Graffiti EP called "XO RIP."
4. At the beginning of "Martyr, Murder, Momma" you can hear me say "Yeah let's do it." This was me answering my sister's question about whether or not I wanted to go on a bike ride. It was a super nice day for bike riding. But even better for a skateboard.
5. La La Land (as of right now) is my favorite off this project, and was written and recorded in less than 2 hours. 
6. (bonus) the clapping and cheering sample used in "La La Land" was taken from a video I took at a Young the Giant concert finishing their set. I used it because at the end of the show I felt this wave on inspiration wash over me. Someday I want to be rocking out on stage.

But for now, I'll be here, somewhere in between white noise and silence, waiting for you to listen.
