So this is the 2nd EP of my 2010 trilogy. Its called "Spilling Over Every Side" I created it pretty much everywhere, as a majority of the production took place while I was touring over the last 4 months.
It isn't a new concept for me, touring and working on an album simultaneously.. but this time around it was pretty intense, there wasn't much time for anything else.
I really tried to push my style with this EP and explore several different genres, sometimes within the same song. The songs are long and there are a lot of parts... I guess, because thats what I want to hear... fresh, intricate, beats that attempt to communicate ideas or tell a story somehow.
Another idea I implemented on this EP more than once, is the transitioning between something pretty and organic to something heavy and electro. A sort of dimension flip.. something I've done in the past.. but I really tried to push it with these tracks.
Anyway, I hope you like it, I do.
