Tongues of Angels . . . and some other little bits

Aloha! Thanks so much for taking time out of your day to read this! Here is the first blog entry for my upcoming album, Language of Emotion. The first track is entitled, Tongues of Angels. It's relatively short but sets the stage for the album concept. With that in mind, let me explain the initial idea behind Language of Emotion. Back in May, when I was starting to formulate the makeup of this album, I thought that it would be really interesting to do a concept album; essentially having some sort of continuity throughout. Over the past several years, I have become increasingly fascinated with human emotion and the expression of such. Across the board, emotion is one of the most beautiful and dangerous aspects of the human existence. It can make or break you, your relationships, and your life. Some emotions are visible, while others are felt way deep, down inside where no one but God can look. I thought it would be a unique task to try and capture a few of these emotions in music and put them on display for the world. Thus was born the idea, Language of Emotion

Now, as I stated earlier, the first track is entitled, Tongues of Angels; a phrase which is taken from 1 Corinthians 13:1 (slightly paraphrased). In the reading, it refers to the realization that regardless of what one does, if he doesn't have love in his/her heart, it is meaningless. I have come to greatly appreciate that verse and what it means for my life, so I thought it appropriate to start the album with a similar idea. The track is very ethereal so to suggest the speech of angels and leads into the 2nd track on the album, Elysian Dream. Until next time . . .
