Behind the Music
Lester Nowhere & o k h oI rarely start creating music with the idea of maintaining a certain mood. However, I’ve noticed that some of my best work has developed from this idea of depicting or conveying a specific emotion or story. I am not always able to create something like this, but within the deeper stories of The Outlaw Music Project I was able to play with a new type of sentiment — sadness.
My goal for my music is to successfully represent the gravity and importance of Ian’s stories of an abused ocean and its victims. Therefore, the tone of my music shares a certain kind of melancholy that is inspired by the weight of Ian’s reportage, and hopefully contributes to a broader knowledge of these issues.
