my music

December 11, 2000 by krisis

So, Matt ratted me out in regards to how entrancing i believe Rabi at WockerJabby to be, and through the magic of referral logs she {of course} read it. I just hope she doesn’t think i’m stalking her or anything; i just think she’s really neat.

What’s sorta interesting in the light of Matt’s accusation that i’m obsessed with Rabi is that i’m not obsessed with anyone. No one. And, as much as i whine and bitch and moan about being only obsessed with myself, i tend to fall for people. I fall hard. That’s why this is called crushing krisis … it just works on so many levels. But, not being obsessed is a healthy phenomenon. As much fun as it might be, and as conducive to songwriting as it might be, if i can’t give a girl space just within my crush on her, how could i ever realistically be romantically involved with her?

This whole lack of an obsessive center thing made it hard for me to title the new layout for AMkitchen. I joke constantly that whoever gets the majority of songs written about them on my next demo will get it named after them, but in a way it’s true; i gauge the emotional center of my current performance staples by who they’re about, and inevitably one songs becomes the center of all the others. For the majority of this year that song was “Under My Skin,” but lately i’m just not feeling it as much as i used to when i played it. So, looking at the spread of images from this past summer that are currently illustrating my website, i found myself at a loss for a name or a title song. I wound up naming the new layout ‘resolve,’ because above anything else my writing recently has been showing a sense of resolution. I feel resolved, and I have resolve. Resolve.

And, if you feel like hearing “under my skin,” go here and listen to the whole trio, because the version of “almost” at the end of it is really making me regret the fact that i only record in realaudio for this stuff … it’s everything i want to hear from that song. and i haven’t played it since :(…

You know what’s funny? You can’t take a song back. I can never take “under my skin” back. Not that i want to! But, it’s strange because my feelings for anyone else are always going to be somewhat held up against songs like “under my skin,” at least in my mind. I wish i could just say: “Look, i feel this, see, isn’t it pretty.” But that was an emotion that had it’s own time and place and it’s rather unfair for me to invoke it again when i should be feeling totally new and different things… which means nothing from my next demo is likely to be played at my wedding…

Trio is a unique and mostly spontaneous thing, and i’d just like to emphasize that point. This week marks the twelfth concert of three unedited (and mostly unrehearsed) songs i’ve performed for this site, and out of the 36 songs that have appeared so far there have only been 4 repeated songs and 3 covers (two of them in #3). That means i’ve performed 29 original songs. Now, i am both modest and honest, so i can tell you that not every one of those songs is amazing. Sure, there are ones like “crashing” and “never say goodbye” that stand out as great compositions and performances and all that, but then there are those songs like this week’s “fad” and “burn” that are just not quite there. Both of them have their moments, but they both have some other (clunkier) moments where they lose your attention or make evident the fact they they never got “finished.” But, that’s sorta the point of trio; obviously with as much writing as i do not every song gets “finished,” but whether or not the song is set in stone this lets me bounce it to a few willing ears. Last week’s performance of two brand new untested songs drew a ton of positive feedback and really encouraged me to work on both tunes despite previously giving up on them. So… you really are changing my sound by responded to my performances, and whenever my next demo disc is finished you will hear the difference. So, thanx. xoxoxox

Trio: Season 1, #12

December 10, 2000 by krisis

A new and varied trio was just recorded in one take, freeing up the rest of the day for me to lounge around and do nothing. First is the work-in-progress “burn,” and then an amazing turn at my longtime favorite “bridge“, and finally an oldie that i basically rewrote as i sang it: “fad“. The latter was a shout-out to my hostee Sky, who took a liking to the lyrics of the song. So, have a listen to a second week’s worth of unrushed and uncluttered Trio. Yum.
