I'm never too ambitious when I go into the studio. I always know that I'm just going into the studio to work on or try to develop an idea that I have for a song.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't want to get caught up and be an artist always on the go. Because once you do that, it's hard to get into the studio and do what I do.
When I get in the studio the idea is just to work and bang out as many as I can.
I'm never gonna go into a studio and work for a whole year non-stop. Just every day on my own in the studio working, it's just too damn hard.
I've been to the studio several times, and it's not that I'm not happy with what I've got, but each time I come away, I feel that I've learned something that I want to work on.
Whenever I have time, I try to get in the studio and write, whether it's for me or other artists or my catalog of music. It's definitely one of my favorite parts of the music industry.
I have a rough idea when I walk into a studio though.
Most songs I write are spur-of-the-moment-type things. I have to be spontaneous. If not, songwriting can bore me. There is no pre-design or idea of what I am going to do when I go into the studio. It's all like that for me. I could go in and write two or three songs in an eight-hour session. You can't over-think songs. You just can't.
I just want to be in the studio 24/7. Even if I'm not working on a song right then, just sit in the studio. That's what I love.
When I get into the studio, it's not about trying to get a good song, it's about whatever comes naturally.
Being in the studio is like painting, you know, you can really take your time, and try different things, and kind of go deep into it.
