“808s and Heartbreak” is Kanye West’s 4th Studio album and after hearing leaked versions of just about every song and I can safely say that this album is going to be UNREAL. I especially love that fact that West proudly labels this album under an entirely new genre he’s created which he calls “Pop Art.” After losing his mother late last year and a recent breakup with his fiance, Kanye has managed to pour his heart out in the form of heavy TR-808 beats and distorted auto-tuned vocals. The results are a solemn and truly artistic piece of work that is destined to become an instant classic! Did I mention he recorded the entire album in Hawaii?! The 808 State… coincidence?
“808s and Heartbreak” is set to release on Nov. 24th, 2008.
Pre-Album Mixtape?
Pre 2nd Album/Summer ‘09 Mixtape?
2nd Album Project?
I spent the better half of last weekend recording w/ my good friend, Aldrine Guerrero, for a Christmas instrumental project of his. Our sessions were pretty quick and productive, mostly due to his preparation and my workflow. We tracked 5 traditional Christmas songs (Sleigh Ride, Winter Wonderland, The Christmas Song, Up on the Housetop, Carol of the Bells) as well as a new version of Aldrine’s original composition, “Schizophrenic Snowflakes.” I just finished mixing & mastering lastnight but after listening to the final product on my iPod I feel like I can do better. So, today I plan to remaster the project, hopefully for the last time and add “The Four Strings of Christmas” to my production/engineering resume.
