About Waxing
Saturday, November 22nd, 2008Waxing documents the beginning of my experimentation with the idea of taking traditionally composed and heavily lyrical music (ie. composed with a piano or guitar) and combining it with the heavily process oriented and explorative composition approach of electronic music. Most of the songs were written and recorded over the summer and fall of 2008 in my home studio in Athens. Real drums, some vocals, and some guitars were recorded at Rockvale studio in Murphysboro Tennesee with the help of Zac Litwack. The drumming is done by Nick Curtis.
Like the stage of the lunar cycle for which its named, ‘Waxing’ is meant to be the beginning of the process of revealing Aman Amun. It is the beginning of my exploration with electronic music, and is, certainly, the first attempt that I’ve ever made of putting my emotions right out on the table with my artwork.
See if you can sympathize, download it for free at bandcamp or contribute to the man at iTunes. If you want a tangible copy shoot me an email. Maybe I’ll set up a system for offering tangible copies if they’re requested.
