Winter e.p (three songs)

The name of the e.p is Winter.

There are three songs: Can't Believe, Are you a friend of mine, and Rebirth

Worked on a project over the break. Unfortunately only got to completing three songs. Hearing them back I now realize how lonesome and sad all the songs are. It comes from a place where I'm ready for change. Sometimes there no other way to see or understand yourself than through the music you write.

I also find because I believe music influences people values and societal behavior/expectations, I filter my words and re-edit them until they are educational, politically correct according to my rules, "different" or "unheard of", etc. But sometimes as a result of trying to "make a difference" you lose your authentic voice and imperfect words, the stuff that makes a song sound real.

When you spend too much time on the words, I find that it becomes more like a piece of media or an anthem, not art(necessarily). This is my first ep where I completely didn't filter my words. And funny enough, I found out that the unfiltered me has some insecurities. People aren't always what they preach or try to preach, though that's not to say there's anything wrong with aiming to improve, ovi.

I spent only about 12 hours on this project so I don't completely know how I feel about it yet but hopefully I'll look back and take something away from it. I hope you do too. Have a good rest of your winter. And keep up with the good art if you're in to that kind of thing. And if you're not, try it. Thanks for reading.
