Warm Sea
A real easy writing flow has descended upon me the last couple of weeks bringing the Short Songs For Long Faces EP up to 11 songs. Though the running time may be lean, these songs are coming from an authentic place. It’s tough to remember a time when the creative process has been so unfiltered.
Today’s song is titled Warm Sea, at least for now. It came all at once, words and music, allowing for a very easy demo recording. The denial to one’s self of our own desires is one of life’s mysterious tendencies. Or is that just me? One thing I’m not afraid to admit to myself is that polishing these tracks is going to be satisfying – although I must face, yet again, how to balance the drum tracks between electronic and acoustic sounds. They are both great loves yet somehow the overall approach would benefit greatly from a graceful simplicity.
The evening walk turns out to be an excellent mobile blogging venue. All’s quiet on the streets as long as an eye is kept open to avoid potholes.
