MUSIC
|
Here, you can check out some of the music that I write, produce, and perform for all of our TV, web series and podcasts.
While the focus of this entire company is on producing media to help promote small towns, I did spend most of my life, before this life, as a singer-songwriter/audio engineer/producer/record company/recording studio owner/operator. Creating, engineering and producing music simply runs through my veins deeper than almost anything in this world. To me, music is a vitally important piece to the visual media that I now produce and it's only fair that I give that hard-won skill-set it's due here with it's own page. To the MTV generation that I grew up in, music that's attached to a visual is intrinsically entwined and connected to the proverbial hip. They are mutually, deeply, co-dependent upon one another. Helping one another spin the very specific type of mythology that I create for each episode. I believe that music is the ultimate mood enhancer, companion and emotional support animal for any visual medium. Yes, there's a wide-variety of styles represented here, but a simple explanation would be that I happen to adore the Beatles "White Album", Wilco's "Yankee Foxtrot Hotel", Princes "Sign of the times" etc... etc... . You get the similarities here, I hope. Basically, any album and artist that explores styles, sound, expression and boundaries without restraint and restriction of genre and expression has been a deep roadmap for me over the years and that's exactly what you'll find here. A hodgepodge of musical styles without any limitation given to genre. It's the way, kids. Haven't we as a society grown past all that nonsense yet? Yes? I sure hope so by now. It's all just 12 notes and how you interpret them and which ones you happen to choose at the time you're channeling what you're receiving from the ether anyway. Explore, express and create wherever your creativity may lead you, I say. And I try to. Everyday. I hope you truly enjoy what you hear and sincerely thank you so much for taking the time to listen my music in spite this entire endeavor being mostly, dedicated to all of the multiple "Great Small Towns" TV series. ~A.A. |
