I actually quite like promo, which is quite odd for an artist, but recording's not the easiest thing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Everything I record, I just try to sound like me and come up with songs that suit what I do, and then just go for it.
To be honest, making albums is really never easy. It's always a bit excruciating because there's always this fight to make it great, and then you hit these stumbling blocks along the way.
I thought I'd be wasting my time to go to commercial record companies and make demos for them, because don't forget, I was doing what I was doing and nobody understood what I was doing.
In the music business, I found it was much more about interviews, photo shoots and appearances rather than actual performing, which I do best.
The biggest difference between me and other artists out there is that they'll put anything out to sell a record or sell a ticket.
To record an album and stick to one specific style isn't really my thing.
I get a lot of demos sent my way, and I listen to them, and sometimes they just have something very special.
Everything I record, I just try to sound like me and come up with songs that suit what I do and then just go for it. I never know what the public's going to like, anyway.
I hate the whole 'record your album, do your promo campaign, have a year off to write another album' pattern. As an artist, you should keep creating as much as you possibly can.
I never record anything like a demo, I just go for it.
