#NewTrack #TheTinkerer #School #ATFU
If you’ve been keeping up, you know I’ve been listening to pretty much nothing but David Bowie’s catalog. It’s been an enlightening experience, and in some ways very liberating. In fact, when I consider how I’ve approached my last few projects, from the month that was nothing but the #BASEDRUSTY to becoming ‘The Tinkerer’, I think it only makes sense that I would fall into a zone where I listen to nothing but one artist. My approach to listening to music has been very singular. Obviously, I’ve had to listen to other music; I work on an R&B station, man…and I gotta know what’s gonna work in the club and on the radio as a DJ, and I TRY to keep up with what my people are doing…but there’s been a LOT of David Bowie in the whip.
Anyway, I got outta the shower the other day and the chorus from Nirvana’s ‘School’ jumped into my head…all kinds uninvited…then naturally, the verses jumped in there. I got dressed and grabbed my ‘Bleach’ CD as the day’s soundtrack. This would be the first album by anyone other than David Bowie in the whip. I hopped in the whip and went straight to ‘School’, the song that decided to pay me a visit that morning from some ‘recess’ (no pun intended) of my crowded musical mind. I hit ‘repeat’ and left things that way for the rest of the day. Obviously, I like Nirvana.Then I came home and did the track that’s posted up there…check that out. Just The Tinkerer’s take on one of his favorite songs by Nirvana. (The intro is actually called ‘Kindergarten’ (heh).)
I think I’m working on the follow-up to ‘The Tinkerer’ right now. I have a few ideas and I’ve started producing, writing, and recording again. I’ve got my process kinda down pat, now it just takes me taking the time to get the music outta my head. This whatever-it-is that I am working on now actually started as a remix project. (I have remixes for ‘Speak Monster Speak’ and ‘Add On’ already done.) The playlist (tracklist?) I am looking at has 10 tracks…so far. I’m feeling pretty good and ready to start attacking some more tunes. I guess this cover is me getting back in the zone and getting my #PUNKROCKTHISSHIT on.
Hey yo, man, if you like this stuff, I just wanna remind you that I put out a pretty cool album last week.
Aight, man. Be great.
No recess.
