Lyrics
Ok below is a more in depth "professional" description of the Music and Vinyl Art I make
- ABLE THOUGHT - Stormy Dream-pop
Like watching a storm from a safe place Able Thoughts music is an eerie swelling of powerful sub-sonics gathering amidst a tranquil unpredictable environment. “A storm he orchestrates and engages and recedes and scares away and invites in.”
A love for a bare-bones, honest, intimate journey as in Bon Iver’s For Emma, Forever Ago, King Krule’s 6 Feet Beneath the Moon or Youth Lagoon’s The Year Of Hibernation will be the same force that will draw fans to Able Thought’s serene In Limbo. Looking to the lyrics, like these from the track “Canyons” “The dreams that dwell/ Moral that melts/ The thoughts that make my brain swell/ It helps me understand whats underneath” we get a glimpse into the two years of self discovery that transformed constantly evolving material into the tracks we hear. The title of the album serene In Limbo describes the album vividly. The serene being the chilled out stereo manipulating vocals and consistent guitar picking melodies (produced by his electronically self-updated nylon string guitar), surrounded by the swelling, dark, unpredictable beats that bring a bit of chaos for the melodies to reside in. (ala in limbo). Bringing all the chaos to an abrupt stop sporadically we get the howling falsetto Ooo’s as in “Places” and “From Space” that speak just as clearly as the lyrics (maybe even more-so) to the intimate journey of self understand that Able Thought’s serene In Limbo is.
- LOST LIFE ON WAX - Vinyl Art
Lost Life On Wax is Able Thought’s candid photography collected in his travels as a touring artist of urban life, underground music scenes, street performers and scenic oddities that are super imposed onto up-cycled vinyl records.
The super imposing process is a secret that is Ables own invention and is created out of his most dope-est Toyota camper that doubles as a vintage mobile studio. Its his commitment to an alternative lifestyle that allows him to travel and create simultaneously while opening the door north American urban culture.
Ok that it thanks for looking. Im super excited to share everything I make with you. I appreciate you so, youre my hero.
