I have had a breakdown! *of This Is How I Go Down
🕑 Added 2024-04-19 16:56:27 +0000 UTCHowdy Eggies. Trying something different (I tire of performing today!). Here, as you will discover if you wish to spend 30 mins with me, is an absolutely imperfect breakdown of one of my songs that I've thrown together this afternoon. But I hope that, mixed in with the chaos of my CPU malfunctioning and the levels of the screen record being so off at one point I had to save it with my phone mic, there are a few golden nugget glimpses at how I work and think about these songs as I'm writing them.
I had fun doing this, including the process trying to be myself (honestly wouldn't recommend it to anyone). I'll try to do more, let me know what other songs you'd like to see.
Lots of love JE xx

This is amazing. Can't wait for the (Sample Rate Remaster) re-release.

I really enjoyed this. It's really interesting not only to see how the songs actually come together but also where your mind is while you make them. This song really spoke to me, but I couldn't figure out why and now I know it's because it came out of this internal struggle that I am also familiar with. Thank you for sharing

A lot of nuggets that were much appreciated

Loved this, it's so interesting to see what goes into making a song, I don't understand most of it but it's still very entertaining! And it's nice to see you out of character. Very excited for the new album and the videos idea. Btw you have a lovely voice, you shouldn't hate on it so much.

Thanks for continuing to work on this video even through the hard drive problems. This is the first time I have seem you not in a music video. Happy to know you are a real person and not an AI designed to make amazing music for us. My wife and I also hate watching videos of ourself! Haha I still can't believe how fast you can write a song and get that flow going like you do. Greatly looking forward to your next album. Praying you can find a good drummer cause that can sometimes really elevate some songs. This song always has me vibing down the road in the mornings. God bless you sir and stay sane out there.
