My new solo EP is released today, but since the title is Wait for it… Vol. 1, I found it only fitting to also release it in slow motion. So today, it only contains the first of four songs: Demon Song. The rest will follow – in due time.
I guess you can fit it somewhere within the realm of alternative pop, inspired by artists like Ben Folds, Tori Amos, Radiohead, Björk and Peter Gabriel. I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of years on this EP, as the work has been taking place in between various projects within theatre and film music, which is what I normally do. So it’s been a long time coming.
Thank you to everyone who gives a listen – more is on the way
Thank you! That is a bass clarinet, a wonderful instrument!
In addition, there is a string quartet (overdubbing itself in the chorus, in other words eight string parts), grand piano, bass guitar, drumset and various VST synths + vocals.
This was great. Great singing, great piano, great orchestration, and mainly great composition. Made me think of a Gabriel Kahane apartment session called "Empire Liquor Mart.
I’ll have to check that out. Thank you very much for the kind words, greatly appreciated!!
EDIT: Wow, just watched and listened all the way through Gabriel Kahane’s “Empire Liqour Mart”. That was simply mindblowing! Thank you for introducing me to a new fantastic artist!
