After The Complaining

After the complaining. After the hypotheticals and what-ifs. After all the blaming and deflecting.

Who has a good idea?

The good idea is the best way to complain.

Low Budget Energy

A low budget plus excitement and drive equals a great vibe.

No time to dwell. No time to pick apart. No time to slow down.

We have to go and we have to go now. The budget is running out!

Of course this is beautifully portrayed in the making of an artists first record. No money, all heart, overflowing passion.

That low budget energy is hard to recreate by throwing money at it.

Talking Artists

Artists can talk. Artists love interviews. Artists love talking about their songs, being asked about their melodies and lyrics and creativity.

Because artists know that as long as they keep talking they can hide within the words.

Because artists know that the music itself is fully exposing. No more hiding. The music is the thing. The centerpiece of it all.

Most artists can talk their way into their music coming off the way they want it to come off…but then what do the songs have to say about it?

Stopping At Nothing

What will you stop at nothing to do?

Of course there are other needs of the day that will get time and attention as well…but sometimes internalizing extreme language like this is a helpful jolt out of an aimless daze and into fierce determination.
