Finally.....

So a couple of years ago Mic L and I released a split EP called "The Rebirth". It was a good cd. His side was amazing. Mine was alright but I rushed a couple of songs and really only 4 of the 6 were good tracks. We did some shows together and really seemed to have a chemistry on stage. Some of my favorite sets are the ones I've done with him.

Fast forward a few years. We start talking about doing an actual cd together. But we both are the type to talk about it until someone takes charge and makes it happen. Aeon Grey made it happen. He finally called us on our bluff and set us in motion to make the cd a reality. I'm glad he did because the songs we've written for this cd are amazing. Some of the best Mic L verses i've heard. Easily some of the best verses I've ever written. The way it maps out, there will be two "sides" the first 5 tracks are produced by Aeon and the last 5 by Mic L. I lack all rhythym and patience to make beats. Luckily two of the best in the city, for whatever reason, are letting me rap on theirs.

But even then I was still nervous. Here we are making some great material, but I couldn't stop thinking about how it was going to be released. I wanted to make physical release better than anything we've put out. I feel at this point we need to be putting out a quality product. Then last night I got a text from Mic L, "luke wants to put the cd out on aplus9. what do you think" I think yet again Aeon is pushing this project foward. And I'm grateful for it. With the support of someone who has done this for awhile and knows the proper channels for effective results, the sky is the limit.

We are still workin on the cd. Still have songs to write. Luckily we already have the concepts. I'm more excited than I've ever been about music. I just hope I can convey that excitement on to you guys. The release is fast approaching. We are having a dual release show July 17th, 2010 with prettygirlhatemachine. They are another local group that you should really be looking into.

So really I just want to say thanks to MicL for making some music with me. Thanks to Aeon for kickin us in the ass to really get this shit started and not just talking about it. I also want to thank Aplus9, for hopefully releasing this cd. This a journey, and i'm loving the trip.
