The Night Owl's Day Dream

I began working on this in mid-winter, January. Like I said before, I ran through several different drafts of the album. And out of all the different types of sketches I tried I took parts from all of them and put it in this album. In a few of the songs, it's hard to understand my voice. I tried to use the muddy reverb to hide my voice as like an instrument, or ambient add-on to the song. I tried a few different things here, there is more beat orientated songs, there is more ambience all done with mostly my effect pedal, keyboard and guitar. After the many different tries following January, I finished it over Spring Break and decided to release it on my birthday since it was close enough.

I wanted this to turn out to be a sort of audio kaleidoscope where everything inside isn't exactly pretty. Not just colorful shapes and lights. The quality is a bit better. The flow is pretty interesting...it almost runs in a pattern flow of different types of sounds, see if you pick it up, man.
