an ep at the moment in my digital home studio, probarly out in the next few months.
For me the writing process always changes. I never try to write a song, but i do look for infulence and thats where the writing to comes from. My songwriting infulences come from the likes of The Beatles, The waterboys etc.
But i do suffer from writers block but having the musical ability is very helpful, it means i can save that melody
I'm also very intrested in poetry and books like "Stephen Frys" poerty book are very helpful and very intresting. Something that always makes me feel thats another reason to like
Paul Mc Cartney and the Beatles that most of the songs written up the early days were written years before, a fact the Lennon/Cartney probalry wrote about 300 songs altogther. And to really be honest im sick of the way that people talk about Paul Mc Cartney and the Beatles in general. He doesnt get enough respect for what he has done. People just read the Sun to much and read
into it. They gave us songs which have become Brittish instuitions and they are Brittish instituions in there own right. There the reason i do what i do and there music has even got me out of situtions and made me pass certain essays in college and also a lot of there songs reflect all
our lives.
Im also very keen in the study of popular music and go back to the days of Baroque and in paticualar Handel. His wonderful music with its mathmatical concepts and soul is just magical. Ive been to his House in London where he lived most of his later life in, which is now a museum. As i enter his bedroom with the guide i start to feel a very emotional feeling, because its still the old floor and most of the room is from the 17 centuary.
"Jimi Hendrix" lived next door to handels house in London. great place to go"
