Finished 30 songs in 30 days :)

Well, I almost didn't make it, but I pulled it out in the final hour. To be honest, I have been not thinking about writing or attempting to write for the last few days....My mind needed a break. I am really excited about some of the songs that came out in these last 30 days and thanks to everyone that took an interest. From people around SD to people we met through AZ, it seemed like some people were really into the project. A lot of the songs that I wrote, I already had the chance to record and some are being rehearsed already with Seismic Leveler for our live set so we will be debuting them soon.

I learned a lot about my writing process through this and and also the importance of setting aside time to be creative everyday. I felt like I really got into a rhythm writing as much as I could, but I for sure started hearing similar themes in some of my songs, Its a total bum out to write a full song and then realize the chord progression is almost the same as something you previously wrote.

In these last 30 days I wrote hip hop, dub, downtempo, dubstep, ballads, rock and electro shit but looking back I am surprised I didn't write any latin songs. I hope you have enjoyed reading the blog posts about this and I look forward to releasing a lot of the demo versions of these songs and fully produced versions. I also have a bunch of these songs recorded acoustically on my phone and think it would be cool to release some of these in their raw form.

Our shows in Tucson and Yuma were great and want to say whats up to Synergy for having us in Yuma and Skitn for having us in Tucson. Turns out Synergy and us know a bunch of the same people throughout California and it was great to hear about some of our old friends. We are always happy to go back to Tucson, the crowds are always great and its feels good to be in a place I used to live and spend so much time. Tucson is a cool town... Whats up Jesse and the Hut?

We have a bunch of great shows coming up in Southern California with some great bands and will send out an update via our mailing list in the next week. Make sure to enter your email address in the box on the left to keep up to date on everything that is going on and receive exclusive downloads via our reverbnation page.

We also want to say whats up to Nug Magazine for our mention on their site.

This is going to sound weird, but there seems to be an animal living in my walls....kind of creeping me out right now.

Much Love,
Tommy Dubs
