Note from JJ: If you are a fan of Kate Bush, you might like this. Then again, you might be revolted, in which case, I will gladly refund the full purchase price. No questions asked. No receipt needed. It’s like you made a deal with God, or something like that.
It’s not a ripoff of her work, but she clearly influenced mine with this project, in terms of music and lyrical themes. I was aiming for that early ‘80s vibe. Google the “album” title for the very cool East Wickham Farm backstory.
I’ll STFU now.
Oh, wait…
Headphones.
Use a GOOD set as I did, to mix and master everything. There are some decent stereo effects worth a closer listen, not to mention intentional and relevant sound effects at the very nose and tail of the mix. And there is an intentional flow to the track sequence. Details…
And… if you… indulge… by all means, you might like to do first and make damn sure you have an hour and a half to kill. I would indulge and join you, if I had any and you made a pot of Earl Grey. We GenXers are totally up for anything, since we’ll sluff this mortal coil soon and all.
Ok, NOW I’ll STFU.
