smile[sic]

Finished July 28, 2022 Download

This album was made as my final project for the Digital Music Production course at Langara College. I originally called it smile[sic] as like a kind of "I'm smiling but uh oh, it's not a REAL smile... I'm actually really freakin' sad or whatever" which I think is pretty corny now, so I'm probably not gonna call it that if I ever actually release the album outside of this website. The title also doesn't fit the album since all the songs are happy except the Outro, and they all have a sort of summer theme to them.

This album has also been in basically permanent development hell because I haven't gotten around to making album art for it, even though all the songs are done. (I also have a ton of songs I still haven't released because I don't have art for them yet.)

Anyway, I really wish I released it since I think the songs on it are all pretty consistently good, except maybe "what a wonderful day to be at the sun" which I think has silly drum writing.

Also ether has solos on tracks 1, 3, and 5 since I was making it over the course of a year and I never really thought about how he would have his greasey little fingers on half of the songs. He just was like "hey can I solo over this song? pleeeease oh pleeeeeeeeeeeeease" and I let him, like the spineless geek I am. That ether fella has a way with words, he has me in the palm of his greasey little hand, all of my precious music could be his at the snap of a greasey little finger. Like that. Like THAT.
