"Heard Scenes"

i want to talk a little about the album i'm starting to work on, which will be my first LP and will follow my release of the Broken Homes EP. it's going to be called Heard Scenes, and it's going to be built with acoustic guitar, vocals, and samples. i recently bought the Korg MR-1 and i'm going to collect samples of sounds from all over New York, using them as everything from percussion to pitched "instruments" to ambient noise. basically, i want to capture the different noises around town and make music with them. i have a few songs that i'm sketching out already for this album, and i'm excited to take the rhythms of the city and make them into something new.

i'm hoping to be done with it by September or so.
