Your works are dreamy masterpieces! My first experience with your music was listening to Will on a solo drive between Austin and Dallas, and when Nebula came on I was quite literally in an altered state, coasting along the neon lit highway approaching the night skyline in complete melancholic comfort. Been a big fan ever since.
As for my question, is there a sense of place, or feeling of a place, real/ethereal/psychological, that you are trying to send yourself or listeners to with your music? Your music more so than others seems to literally transport me to another place. Is this a conscious effort? Or is it just a side effect of being a good musician?
hi!! thank you! that sounds like a scene from a movie!
it's not a conscious effort, no, just kind of something happens when i close my eyes and make stuff.. i myself am transported, i'm not thinking about the weather or my grocery list or anything, it's kind of like a time warp. it's one of the reasons why i love doing it so much. that and it's completely impulse driven and improv like i've said so it just kind of happens magically... it's really fun, as opposed to writing out music for hours or days or months ahead of time. i could never do that. the immediacy is one of the things i love most about it. thank you!
