Interview: Columbus, OH Artist/Producer Voxcore Talks About His Self Titled Debut Album "Voxcore"
/
“I like to describe it like a mad scientist as I work in variations and lay out all the options. Once I find a sound or melody that I like I start to build and layer on top of it. Piece by piece working to create a final sound.”
If you had to describe your music to a stranger in a few words, which ones would you choose?
Emotional Audio Experience
Vibrant, Neon, Synth, 80s, Visual Narrative, transcending
Tell us about your creative process when you are working on new music.
I like to describe it like a mad scientist as I work in variations and lay out all the options. Once I find a sound or melody that I like I start to build and layer on top of it. Piece by piece working to create a final sound.
Then I shift my focus to the song's structure and presentation, moving around all the puzzle pieces until I find something that feels right.
Congratulations on the completion and release of your debut album "Voxcore"; tell us about its development and whether it was self-produced.
Thanks a lot, the album has been the culmination of several years of work.
It was self-produced and promoted, even the album artwork, visuals, and videos are all done by me.
Would you say that the "Voxcore" album has an overarching theme or concept?
Absolutely, the album tells a story from start to finish. With the rise of Perpetuance and Fabrication to the fade of Reign I wanted the album to be a reflection of the journey we all experience through life, love and the pursuit of happiness.
Were there songs that you recorded that did not appear on the "Voxcore" album? If so, why didn't they make the final cut?
Yeah there were a few, I think every artist knows that the final piece or presentation doesn't always match the original idea or vision.
I had an idea of how many songs I wanted to include, but only you decide what's complete and not. So yeah, there were a handful of songs that I was on the fence about that ended up going back into the oven for some more TLC.
Maybe you’ll hear them on my next album, stay tuned. I'm not committing to a specific date just yet, but I am happy to share that my next album is well underway. Look out for the first single in the next couple weeks and expect to listen to the full album before the end of the year.
