ABC - ALWAYS BE CREATING
At least 1 song idea a week in 2018
AVEC SANS has begun writing the follow up to debut album Heartbreak Hi.
Will their New Year's creativity resolution stick?
Our first album took a LONG time to write, as with all artists, we had to define what we wanted to sound like as a band and when interest first started, we only had one actual song to our names and while we fibbed to labels about having a whole album ready, we were secretly playing catch up, writing songs one at a time around our full-time jobs. It proved a bit harder than we'd expected, songs could take months to finish and this made the process a grind and could lead to real slumps in creativity and motivation.

So, for album number two, inspired by the classic play / film Glengarry Glen Ross we're adopting the ABC method. ALWAYS BE CLOSING (or creating in this case).
Every week we will create at least one song idea / loop and post it on here. Some of these ideas will remain ideas forever but some will become the basis of our next album.
These will just be rough sketches. An exercise in keeping the brain creative at all times
Depending on feedback we can go in to the sounds used or even tutorials etc.
We'll be posting our first idea by the end of the week.
For those who dont recognise the reference to ABC:
