inner circles - part two

friends,

episode 638 is part two of a series surrounding my 2018 homemade project "inner circles." sadly, the final song mixes remain more in-flux than i wish they were, but i'm actively working to improve. if all goes well, this series will end with the true final versions in hand.

i'm sincerely thankful for your patience + kindness,

+ for taking the time to be here.

i hope you'll listen.

mid-post p.s. - the original (flawed) mixes remain @ simplemuzik.com

(to be replaced as soon).

the series (so far):

part one is - episode 637.

part two is - episode 638.

tonight's songs:

- yes and no (inner circles, podcast re-remix)

- facing up (inner circles, podcast remix)

- she understood (inner circles, podcast remix)

love,

russell

inner circles - part one

hello friends,

this week begins a series through the songs from my 2018 homemade project titled "inner circles." i'll be playing the songs in the order they appear, reading the lyrics, + talking a bit about where they came from, how they feel now, etc.

unexpectedly, i'm also frantically re-mixing and mastering the tracks in an attempt to put them out with the best possible representation.

i'm thankful you're here,

+ hope you join me... :)

part one is - episode 637.

the songs:

- all grown up (inner circles, podcast remix)

- drifting (inner circles, podcast remix)

- yes and no (inner circles, podcast remix)

love,

russell

p.s. for now, the first (substandard) mixes of the album remain @ simplemuzik.com, but they'll be replaced as soon as i re-finalize things... ;)
