been thinking about the process of music making. myth and mystery. how much to reveal, and what is best left a secret. since my songs don't really have "words" (oops!), i figure it's better to provide information that surrounds the songs, i.e. things i'm thinking about, etc.
i'm going to try something and upload tracks from the new album as i finish them...sort of like revealing the whole thing, piece by piece. but not in order. instead, it will be more logistical, to be honest. those i can get done faster, and done more in a more precise fashion, will get up. but of course, i am one who loves to focus on context, so i will no doubt be thinking about which songs are coming next...
since albums are pretty much dead, this might be an interesting way to work; a smaller quantity of songs (more EP like), and uploaded piece by piece (more immediate),
the first song i got done is "searching for the ghost of rasmussen"; it's pretty much a straight-ahead punk type song. has lots of "1,2,3,4" counts.
"searching for the ghost of rasmussen" is a direct reference to flemming rasmussen, the guy who had an important hand in those "classic" metallica ablums ("ride", "puppets", "justice").
i am searching for his ghost. (he's not dead)
