It's kind of nice having a blog title that doesn't end with !!!!! right ? :)
I had some pretty insane dreams last night. I was able to remember every part of it when I first woke up but dreams have a mysterious way of vanishing from the memory in the course of one day. Now I only remember bits and pieces but it did involve outer space, people visiting us from the future, random people I know coming in and out of the dream, and time travel.
Have I ever talked about my secret passion? It's the study of the universe and time. I've probably read A Brief History of Time about 10 times. When I go to the bookstore, I love to browse through the huge photography books on the birth of the universe and the cosmos. At the airport (which is the only time I ever buy magazines) I stock up on Scientific American and Discovery. Someday when I'm older and I have a lot of time, I am going to finish school, and become an astronomer :)
Anywho.. back to life right now.. the recording process for this album is now complete! I had a very intense and difficult meeting with my label to choose which songs actually made the album. I made so many wonderful friends during the making of this album and it was hard to choose ... some people's songs made it, some didn't. I love them all.. it was kind of heart breaking but I know that all songs have a way of surfacing over time. If you guys are interested, some of the incredibly talented people I worked with are on my top friends and you should check them out ...
'Unfold' is my debut album.. it is the album of my dreams. It chronicles my life from age 15-23. It is a page in the story of my life ...
For this next album, I wanted to try something different. The lyrics would remain my truth, my story but I wanted a whole new landscape sonically. I wanted beautiful melodies, and I wanted beats That is the concept for this album
I feel like it's so easy to stay in one place .. to stay comfortable I wanted to stretch myself ... my voice, my writing
This album was made during the course of oct 08 - jan 09 Which isn't a lot of time but so much happened in those few months I broke down, I was scared, I was thrilled, I felt heart break, I felt love, I felt confident, I became more comfortable in my own skin, I felt alone, I felt hopeful.... I felt so much and i think that's what comes across in the songs.
I'm trying to figure out how best to introduce you to the music... I'm not sure yet but I'm sure whatever I do will find its way to youtube :)
That's it for now. Hope you are all very well.
love,
marié
