theVOID! (Interlude)
theVOID! i’ve had this concept for years, theVOID is a space where one can relax in defeat and know the worst is over. where you don’t have to try so hard to impress or please, and can simply just sulk and take it in before you work to pull yourself out. i think im close to capturing that in sound with this one. a little interlude for the project. feedback always appreciated, would love to hear your thoughts on defeat as a creative and how to overcome it. stay blessed, keep creating. “mordecai” soon. -julian.more
