Random Thoughts....My Next Album

I know...it's pretty ballsy to even talk about a next album when the first one isn't even out. The numerous delays surrounding it have definitely been beyond my control, but as a result, it's changed my outlook on the next project. I'm almost positive I'll be less dependent on outside resources to help bring things to a finish.

Anyways, I'd love to sit here and explain what's going on with "My Mom Thinks I'm Cool" but despite the delays, I'd say we're still pretty much on schedule. So all I can say is, if things aren't entirely sorted out by January, then what IS ready to be presented, will be. So stay tuned.

As far as the next album, I haven't really had a chance to talk things over with my engineer but I'm already coming up with ideas as far as the mix goes. I've been listening to A LOT of songs from the late 60's to mid 70's and diggin the mixing techniques used. It really spices things up and the number one thing I hate about songs today is how clean they sound, there's no real warmth, spacing or technique to what's happening. It's all pretty much squash this, eq that, limit this, and so on. So yea. Next album, if it ever happens. Dope ass throwback mixing.
