The Spirits of Music EP, by The Spirits of Music - Released 2007

This is some pretty original sounding stuff if I must say so myself. This is my band from a few years back consisting of Matt Martin on drums and Colton Boyles on vocals and bass, with myself on guitar. We really created some pretty awesome music. Our writing process was very organic and nothing was ever forced. Basically, we would get together and jam out different ideas, improvising and being spontaneous. We definitely experienced some deep levels of flow whenever we jammed or performed. Each time we would play a gig, our songs would be different. We kept ourselves open to letting things evolve naturally rather than being fixed to a rigid arrangement. This is the kind of music that for me is the most fun to play and create, because one has to be completely present, actively listening to others, ready to respond to anything, and open to take chances. We really jammed our songs out, and I was always surprised at the types of things that came out of not only mysef, but also Colton and Matt. Often, we had no idea where certain ideas or motifs originated; at times it was as if different spirits of music were possessing us as we played and we were conduits. Thus the name or our band. Our EP was recorded in Dallas at Luminous Sound and engineered by Brad Prakope
