Tagged as: self. biggest personal post I've done in a while. thank you for reading. if you actually do. music.
I’ve been writing my own music for a bit over 2 years, and have finally realized that I seriously need to get my shit together and release something. Not to try and be super cool and have 10K likes on facebook, but for myself. I’m falling in a rut where I say “I’ll do it, eventually”, and I absolutely hate it.
Music, along with photography, is one of the few things that I enjoy doing despite not being inherently talented at. I’ve written songs across genres (metal/core stuff, acoustic, ambient/electro, etc etc), been apart of a few small projects that were incredibly fun yet never went anywhere, but now need to focus and re-write the few songs I have written myself and put time and energy into something tangible that I can be proud of instead of putting it off every time I can. I have a really good computer now, enough money to buy a good audio interface + sofrware + a mic, I really have no excuse anymore. I need to work on myself and pour my being into this work. I need something to be proud of and call my own, because lately the list of things I can say I’m proud of is dwindling. I’m 20, still at home, working a job that earns me pretty little, and attending a photography program at night that is starting to eat away at me and make me dread picking up a camera because 90% of the time it’s to shoot an assignment, not out of personal interest. It’s becoming like a chore, and that is the exact opposite of what I want it to be. That’s for a different late night rant though.
I wouldn’t be comfortable releasing music under my name (for a reason I’m not too sure about), so I’ll need to think of some kind of moniker to guy by. I have a few ideas, but that’s the last worry on my list. The music is more important right now.
If you read this all, congratulations. You’re either very bored, or you legitimately care about what I have to post. Either way, thank you. You’re very sweet.
