It is very challenging to make an honest to god hip hop album, I feel that I am chipping away at it, I am speaking my mind, and overall the result is pretty good. Making lyrical hip hop is very different from the robotic scifi instrumentals I'm known for and it has really gotten me out of my comfort zone. I'm not use to saying shit, I like the awkward silences shared between people that know each other, when I make instrumental music it is an exploration of that awkward space for me. Lately I've been a bit anxious, as I always am when the fall starts up, the leaves are changing color and falling, and there is always this un easy feeling as the plant life begins to die. I can't wear white anymore, so I can't have a canvas for all the abstract mustard stains my love of hot dogs creates, it also doesn't feel right to eat hot dogs as bbq season is behind us. I don't know what it is but fall is always so tragic. My creative process isn't at all helped by the increase in production at work, but trust me I'm working my ass off trying to come up with content for you for this LP in my spare time!
