Conceptualizing a new Paper Plane Pilot release

October 9, 2009

For the past few months I’ve been jotting down ideas for a new album. Like First Flight, the new release will have 10 tracks and will be recorded and mixed by yours truly. But unlike First Flight, the release will be broken up into 2-song segments, which means five separate releases.

I like this idea for two reasons. First, writing, producing, recording and mixing 10 tracks all at once is a ton of work. Second, the current state of digital distribution just begs for a more frequent release cycle.

So five little mini-releases just makes sense — it’s easier, and it means that more music comes out sooner. And after all five, I’ll wrap the 10 tracks together in a proper release.
