About this album

  • Updated: 30/10/2008

untied started in 2007 when I had had enough of repeatedly getting confused by love, and decided I had to look back and document its process if was to gain a perspective on it.

 

The result became the album “so this love…“; and extremely personal album documenting love from its ignorant beginning, through its confusion, doubt and distrust, its evident demise through to look forward to yet another future failure.

 

One special technical aspect of the album is that it was produced using only a standard home computer, free audio plugins and samples, and a very cheap software DAW (Reaper) to prove that music is not about the price of one’s equipment, but about talent and passion.

Good style to Breathe, I like it. Soaring synths and middle range pace, with minimalist vocals. And it's important to not assume you do it, especially in times of crisis. Repeat, is another passionate piece, wheels within wheels. Doubt is ever present, how ever many years go by, it's part of the human condition and a reflex to assessing your circumstances. Obviously too much of anything emotionally speaking leads to an imbalance. Hence, the turmoil evident in Delusion. That is possibly something like doubt getting out of hand and creating the sensation that you cannot trust anything. Fixed is part of the cycle, wherein we believe we are on top of things, and there is a truth to that essential part of the development spiral. The trick I believe is in the spiral model, each successive revolution putting you into a position where you have resolved the issues or some part of them. That inclines me to believe that something has been gained. Wisdom has accrued. Broken sounds broken, and again is part of that learning, cyclical spiral of development, but at the other end of the polarity. It has to be endured to teach you what you need to know in order to get back to the sensation to feeling fixed again. Interminable I know but it seems necessary. The answer, so I believe is that there is no end. The question is: How do you get there? Over, is the most melancholic piece, next to Broken. Many relationships have passed me by, some I wish hadn't finished, some I'm glad did. The one I'm in is, as it stands at best for the meantime. Though there may well be others, and in some senses there are. There is something to be said about not putting all your eggs in the one basket. And I feel the same way about relationships. Humans are naturally polygamous creatures, bound by the certitude of religion and personalised philosophy to finding only one soul mate. Solitude also has a melancholic air to it, but it need not be so. We sometimes need room to breathe and develop as individuals. I have found myself in periods of solitude where it was actually very beneficial to me, in that it gave me the opportunity to find a strength in my apparent weakness. That means if all else fails, and sometimes it does, I can rely on myself. There is sometimes a point to solitude and it is deeply personal. Alive (still) kind of proves the point and is a much more optimistic sound and structure, stronger and less introverted. The final track, finds me wanting to reiterate about what I have said about solitude, cycles, spirals, and trying to attain the 'end'. The solution should never rely on another person, because that makes for a potentially dangerous position, if that person (or thing) is removed from your life, for whatever reason. Alone (still) is not necessarily permanent, and probably, being polygamous, not true. There is always, or I think should be, someone that you can turn to, but it depends very much on what you want, or expect, from another individual. When it comes to human relationships, disappointment is pretty much inevitable. Take it easy and enjoy the getting there, because there is no end. Thanks for sharing the feelings, we are all human and all prone to suffering. Nice album.
