Every beat I would come up with wound up being something I would rather hear my own voice and my own lyrics on. In the same process I found myself working with Austin Gaines on the beats and many times he would help cut the vocals. I realized that I had something that was bigger and more special than a production album. It wasn't some solo effort that was a shallow attempt at self promotion, it was a living breathing piece of art.

Eventually, we had about 8 songs that had potential and 4 really good songs. This was about the time Speak, Don't Spell showed up on the internet. These days more people are working on the project and it is slowly turning into a collective of like minded musicians, much like Broken Social Scene. The next offering of songs will feature Jesse Astin of Like Clockwork, Aaron Robinson, Kirkland Underwater, and other artists. My only goal is to create something that is so huge, so inspired that people can't help but pay attention.
