This new Soundcloud recording (part of the Chasing the Sun series) is culled from nights at the Lokal in Boracay, where I slogged through standards in a quest for glimmers of the next. I am a big fan of bootlegs & demos––that is one reason why I trawl through artists of the 60s and 70s (as opposed to the synthesized generations). There is a lot more pulse in handcrafted trial and error, often recorded by self/audience members. In the immortal words of Leonard Cohen, "I have tried in my low-fi way to be free."
* Kind of ruins the mood, though it could eventually save me the trouble of recording shit.
