Score – Betterwithmusic

How does a girl guarantee a guy will agree to meet her again? Borrow his camera! A “meet-cute” by Southampton water.

After some time having abandoned my guitar, I finally took it with motivation. The result was “Home”. And for the album the first song I wrote was “self-Portrait”. I’ve been a long time seeking a song like this: acoustic guitar and no much more. Maybe a voice with a fair echo. Slow and relaxed folk.

As an starting point two very clear references: “Don’t find the way home” from Blid Faith and the “Sea Changes” album from Beck.

The result was this lucky mantram (first and last time I have recorded voice so far). Composed to make your mind wander for a while … or maybe to meditate. And as the humanists would say, to find yourself.
