THE QUEEN OF TIME COMES OUT NEXT WEEK!!!
And the timing couldn't be worse đ
I'm actively packing and gearing up to travel across the country to attend Burning Man 2023, and because everything hits at once, this also happens to be the week that my mastering engineer is able to get me the final deliverables for the album! đ
Since this is my first public release of anything noteworthy, frankly I'm not too worried about being immediately inundated with messages I'm unable to receive. I think more serious promotion will happen in the weeks after I return from the trip.
It would have been great if the release were ready *NOW* so I could give it propper attention before disappearing off the face of the earth for 10 days, but hopefully that's not a death sentence for my career or anything. I think attending a thing like burning man will be good for me artistically and professionally in a variety of other ways (even if it means I can't be glued to my computer the moment Warner calls and tries to sign me đââď¸ /j)
I'm doing my best to keep my modest goals in mind as I get ready for release. I really just wanted to make something that was artistically and personally meaningful, and felt real. I wanted to make something that I could actually feel comfortable and confident releasing publicly. And honestly, I think I did! I'm super happy with the way everything turned out, and I'm able to live with the small imperfections I know are still there.
I've learned a TON about this whole process and I understand much more clearly what I can do to make things run more smoothly next time. It feel like ages since this project first started to take shape. Every step I thought would a week, took a month, and every step I though would take month, took a year, lol.
I have lots of plans for future endeavors in music and art, and releasing this album is a huge step in the right direction as I figure out what it means to be an artist who actually publishes their work. I'm excited to get to use the platform I've built to release so much more in the future! Things are bright! I have a lot to look forward to, and so many exciting projects to work on next! â¤ď¸
