MP3 Jared Cicon - Ate tracks for 8 smacks
10 MP3 Songs
FOLK: Folk Pop, EASY LISTENING: Soft Rock
Details:
Although I have been writing songs and recording demos for about 25 years, this is my first collection of songs for sale in an album length format. So it ''loosely'' qualifies as my debut LP.....Much thanks to https://www.tradebit.com for helping to make it possible.
I''ve been played on AM and FM stations in the Los Angeles Radio Market. In the mid 80''s on KLOS, and most recently, my jingle entitled, "Political Human Sacrifice", aired in Los Angeles, on the John and Ken Show (KFI AM640), daily between Sept. and Nov. of 2004.
I''ve always wished to provide an established act with songs in leiu of performing them myself. It''s not that I don''t like performing, . . I do, . . but I would also recieve satisfaction from having a successful artist, (with possibly better vocal range and production capacity), cover my songs. And now, at this stage of my life, my four children need their daddy in the house, more than they need a rock and roll relative who visits occasionally.
If I could achieve "one" musical goal during the balance of my life, it would be to write the soundtrack for an artistically respected major motion picture.
About the music.
I grew up on Billy Joel. I ate, drank, and slept
Billy Joel. I also loved what Don Henley and the Eagles did for rock. In later years I came to appreciate Danny Elfman(Oingo Boingo), and his motion picture film scores. All 3 artists have influenced my songwriting.
Regarding "Ate tracks for 8 Smacks", if you were to ask me to point you in a direction, . . . "Nothing Gained" or "Touch Me Tonight", (tracks 3 and 10), would be good spots.
If you are looking for someone to offend or shock you with a lyric, you''re in the wrong place. It''s too easy, degrading to the art, and frankly lazy, to insert profanity into a song and call it profundity. It is my monster peeve concerning hip-hop and rap. Any art form that embraces such levels of negativity has little redeeming social value. My test of a good song is to strip away everything but the lyrics. If the message/story is weak, so then is the song.
I am critical about the recording process, and want to give the consumer an intellectual recording experience. I try never to ''settle'' on a recording unless it''s sponanaeity was magical.
Listen to some of the tracks, even if you don''t pickup the LP, leave a review, I read them all.
Time is precious, . . thank you for yours.
