Video Confessional 14: Creating Unique Albums

And...

I'm back.

Hopefully everyone is doing better than I am these days.

I have been quite busy, but sadly, just busy with things I don't want to be busy with. If that makes any sense.

I still have a small backlog of videos I have not uploaded yet, so I found some time to put together the next video I recorded which leaves off from the last one about doing something for a reason.

In this video, entitled, "Creating Unique Albums," I talk about how I approach each album as a new and fresh experience, a generic road map for Envinity going forward, and the downsides to taking this path.

Videos may be a bit sporadic for a while until I can get some personal things in order.

As always, comments are usually on our facebook page.

See ya,

Video Confessional 13: Do It For A Reason

Hey guys,

Here's something that crosses my mind from time to time, especially when I browse news about bands.

Does it seem to anyone else, that many bands just go through the motions of putting out a new album, instead of waiting for an important reason to create a new album, or piece of art?

Perhaps you don't agree.

However I do.

Check out my observations on "doing music for a reason" below.

As always, come leave some feedback on our facebook page.

Tolerate your weekend!

Video Confessional 12: Lyrics Vs. Story

Hey there,

I'm going to hitch onto the topic of 'story' from last time, and today, discuss why there are two separate components to the text of Moira's Lake: Lyrics and story.

So, why are there two pieces of text for this album?

How did the idea come about?

What is the difference between the two?


And how did writing a concept record change my approach to writing?

Find out the answer to these questions, and much, much less in the video below.

Come leave some feedback on our facebook page.
