fenside

hello again, everybody.

i found myself with some time today, and decided to finally lay down a track i've had wandering around my skull for the last two and a half years.

for the unaware, i served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in various parts of england and wales. while there, i had my fair share of noteworthy experiences. quite a few of these experiences took place in boston, england (home of the stump and boston united). among these, many of the more exciting and or remarkably upsetting (only because disturbing is too strong of a word) experiences took place in fenside, a neighborhood in the northwest corner of boston town.

after working in the neighborhood and having such an interesting time, it seemed natural that this pulsing little number that i came up with on 24 key keyboard in my apartment should be named after it, if it wasn't at least partially inspired by it.

the song isn't exactly finished, at least in the sense that it has everything i wanted for it, but it won't for some time, i'd imagine. this being the case, i'll share it as is for the moment. let me know what you think if you have an opinion.

anyway, this is it. like last time, the video is just so it's not flat black screen to stare at, so don't bother complaining about it.




the thought of my mission reminds me of the people and places that met me there. to all of you, thanks. i love the places i stayed and the people that populated them. thanks for your kindness and patience with this and many other boisterous 19-year-old american boys.

and ones of other nationalities too.
ta.
