“After the release of ‘Anti-social’ and "Rio", I was pretty much busy with the tour,dealing with two record labels, opening for Miss Vanity. I had not time to be a pop star. But I always found time to write. I always do. It was hard, I will admit. Mainly because being tired and the focus on making sure the shows happen, it really takes up a lot of time.
Even though everything has been going very well for me, everything I wrote down for the record was completely negative and I started to hate myself for that. I felt that I was like some sort of old fart complaining about everything. No matter what it was. I was making the worst happen in everything I wrote. It started to get more serious and serious. That’s when I started thinking. What exactly do we live for? We all work so hard for something, and then we die. That's when it clicked.
So yeah...the concept of “Baby Virus” came very clear to me. I never tend to write anything that's "Easy Listening". What I was writing was more focused and straightforward, but once gain, it came out in a unusual way.
Overall, the sound is experimental, so even though the sound is more rock based, you can always expect an unusual formality within the record. I like to mix in some unusual instruments that you never hear. It's great that many people now want to go "Experimental" with their music but many people seem to forget the main thing about being experimental and that's creating your own instruments. That's what experimental music is really about. It's not just about mixing, and making crazy sounds, it's about originality. In other words....no sound is original these days, but what do with them can be original.
Preview Insight on some of the songs:
1. Mrs. Supernova/Failures
(Preview)
"Mrs. Supernova" is the perfect woman. She's a conspicuous star. The first time I fell in love, which was not recently. I felt like a downgrade, in comparison to her. But I still remember the feeling. The first time I experienced a real rough heartbreak was recently and that's when I experienced Mrs. Supernova.
The first part of the song, is the exploitation and as the song progresses, it turns into complete disaster.
"We made love in the strangest places
and you made the strangest faces
But that's why I loved you, Mrs. Supernova"
2. Cheap Kids
(Preview)
"Cheap Kids" is a political movement song that talks about the value of our younger generation. Daniel preaches about an education system that's being built to fail; specifically in America. Highly relying on the internet, and sources to build intelligence.
The song is set to be overwhelming sound. "I will describe the vocals as fruitful, whispery with an edge at points and exhausting. Overall with this album, I truly feel like I have intimacy with the record. I'm not just fucking out the tracks, I'm making love to them."
3. Internet Darling
(Preview)
"Internet Darling" doesn't necessarily have a clear meaning. It's an incredible diss towards internet culture and somehow it all relates to love. The psychedelic rock flavored production contains/incorporates "doo woop" vocals (emphasized in the lyric "internet darling"), randomized "beats", low fidelity, and somehow a brainwashed Arabian-rock DNA. The vertical and consonant melody makes it some what catchy, but the vocal interruptions ruin "the moment" where the song is suppose to capture you and rape you dead in the ear. But in the end, it does, and that's the beauty of it.
OOC: Track by track begins May 31st. Stay tuned...
