Musical direction of Amphlux, and less digital perfectionism.
Here's the human behind Amphlux So I don't want to get too wrapped up in writing blogs.
Hey Minds. Have another blog. Writing to say that these blogs are going to be a lot of flowing thoughts and free flow of ideas rolling out. I'm too structured sometimes to a point where perfectionism might actually be a flaw. The funny thing is this doesn't quite translate into real life; only in the digital realm it seems that if I write or do something it has to be perfect.
Kinda tired of being like that. I want to get where I don't mind having stupid ideas and saying them out loud on digital social media. I don't want to get so timid in my thinking that I fear some sort of backlash for coming up with an idea that might be unique and might work but also might be really dumb because I haven't thought about it in a certain angle. I think that too much, that I can't say or do something without blasting all possible angles of the idea in my head before expressing it outwards.
Also, here's me more. I'm going to be much more present of a person behind my brand. In the age of digital branding, I think a lot of people seek authenticity and someone just being real about who they are and where they are coming from.
Musical directions are subject change at any time.
Thus far in the cycle of what Amphlux is, it seems to have developed into a pure electronica, synth driven, orchestrated and produced package with little to no live elements and instruments, and barely any voice. The idea of writing music that tells a story with little to no vocals has always been an intriguing and compelling thought. I think I've done that with a few of my tracks as well.
But I'm also starting to look at what the possibilities are when it comes to music. Where I come from, where I'm at, and where I would like to go. Amphlux was created in 2006 after I started doing less rock/metal and more electronica elements like D&B and chiptune. As electronica evolved as an overarching style, so too did it's genres, with dubstep, trap, witchhouse and many more coming out since.
But I still recall back to my live roots with a sense of longing. I feel a strong pull to record more instruments and dive into recording myself vocally more as well. Believe it or not, I can sing. My voice sounds kinda fat, but hey, I'm working on losing weight as well and I can sing in key. So whatever.
So to wrap it up: writing my blogs will be more streaming flow of conscious cause really, who's reading these lol. My music is subject to become something new and different at whenever point, but I do plan on releasing a pure EDM album. Also, I'm going to be more visually present, the world is just going to have to fucking deal with my ugly mug. Also I cuss a lot, deal with that too. I was recently told I have an image problem and it kinda pissed me off, so here I come world.
