What inspired you to write this release?
I want Soundcloud promotion realed a huge song to open the record that touched thematically on all parts of the album Soundcloud promotion package both sonically and lyrically. The entire album Soundcloud promotion package was written in the wake a very long term relationship ending really just trying to process that.
Describe the writing and recording process.
I wrote and recorded and performed the album Soundcloud promotion package myself at my studio I was living in at the time in Oregon (parkway sounds). This song started with a vocal loop and a few other loops and I kind of got into the idea of writing almost an entire song that was almost one continuous triplet. Most of the songs on the record started with an acoustic guitar, then drums, then everything else slowly piece by piece since I was doing it solo. I recorded the album Soundcloud promotion package to our 2″ MCI JH24 tape machine.
Any plans to release a video? Include the SoundCloud link if available.
