About
Sparked by a marked disappointment in the trend of music industry, Jason Suwito created Polaris At Noon, hoping to give a new model for fans to grasp on to. The concept is simple: serialize the release of music in which a song is released weekly to form a "season" of songs.
Polaris At Noon was conceived in January 2008 after Jason Suwito realized that his back catalogue of songs was piling up. Being a writer who's music ranges from rock, to pop, to piano ballads, and electronic, releasing music in a serialized manner (one week at a time) was perfect for a collection of songs that don't necessarily fit into one cohesive album. The dynamics of fan-to-artist relationships are changing with the plethora of social networking sites popping up on the net. With no record label, no distribution, and literally no startup fan-base, what better way to start up a project than with something new and heavily reliant on the Internet.
"Season One: The Prospect" showcases 11 tracks; 3 of which are to be released on "The Pilot EP", and 8 that will be released one week at time, for a two month period. The songs came into fruition through Suwito's love for songwriting and as a means to channel life's events and ideas into. "Every song stands on it's own. Being able to write freely, with no inhibitions, enabled me to write songs all across the board of genres, and get away with it. Not having someone breathe down your neck and try to tell you what to do is quite liberating." gleams Suwito, reflecting on the album and the process of creating the songs. All the songs were written, recorded, produced, and performed by Suwito. When asked about recording with no help of an outside source, Suwito responded, "It was taxing at times. Sure, having someone press the buttons, and edit everything would have been great. But this way was so much more gratifying at the end. I hope people will find something they like in the collection I've made, because I know I've worked to my fullest capacity for these songs to exist."

August Update
Hello all,
It’s been a while since I’ve updated this and I apologize for that. I can’t believe that it’s practically August! I’ve been in hibernation, working on new songs for you all to hear. I have over 40 demos and it’s a daunting task to narrow down …

Gagosian Liga, Jan 31, 2008:
"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov)
