Confessions Of An Artist

Confessions Of An Artist

’Confessions Of An Artist’ is an introspection podcast, that talks about everything relating to music and the musical & visual works I create for you. I candidly share what being an artist in modern times means to me. My approach to Composing, Live DJ Mixing, Mix Engineering, Recording, and Performing. And the struggles, mentality, and philosophy behind the projects I’ll be sharing with you. What I hope you gain through these episodes is hope and inspiration. And through my journey, you find your path and the courage to go down that unwritten path and challenge the current music landscape. If I can do it, so can you! Who wrote all these so-called ’rules’ away?

This week on Confessions of an Artist, we discuss the creation of PRESSURE (Valarijex Version). How we approached the recording of instrumentation, the inspiration behind the screaming guitar leads and why I mixed them in a 'Non-traditional way'. I also discuss the genres represented in the PRESSURE piece and why I chose them.

I share something I've been putting off with you in this week's episode. I wasn't too keen on recording this one; sharing it was its own thing.

I hope you find yourself confident in sharing your journey through this. It might not ...

Alright, welcome to the inaugural episode of 'Confessions of An Artist'. I reflect on the past few years and why I decided to step away and pursue the craft of musicianship and artistry, over entertainment. Asking the question, 'Are you putting your best foot forward'? With so much music being released daily, it's not an aspect of releasing more music. But rather release the best you can offer at this particular time.
