How Anchored Soulz was formed?
As you can read in the About me section of this blog, Anchored Soulz was born out of a desire to connect with family and friends through music and instrumentation. The Shaken Not Stirred album shows what is possible if the effort is put in and the project is finished. It develops its own sound as it is created and captured. Coming to life, it isn't about being perfect, its capturing something real. This album was based on a family bonding project. It is alive and honest. Like no Job before, the best versions and work are always changing and developing as it should be. As the songs are played and jammed we merely hope to capture the greatest version at that point in time, thus far. This is not about emulating an ideal of perfection or popular mainstream fads. Some strive to attain certain levels of a particular sound or genre only to use the best bits of this or that but, music is about expression and freedom to create and do and be who and what you want to be through those sounds. Music breathes and it varies in each performance. Not a machine, its about demonstrating a surge of feeling in a given environment and attraction, give and take, sending out what comes to us through our vessels and demonstrating the result into the universe. It is the purest form of being human which includes all those little imperfections that make this project well, kind of perfect.
Why Shaken Not Stirred?
The name of the album is less 007 Classy and more off the Spectrum, as in shaken or stirred from a catatonic autistic state. A great representation of growing out of or socializing in adulthood, overcoming social awkwardness and communication challenges that many face in the society we've created. Coming into an awakened state of awareness as we grow as individuals and realize the importance of being in touch with the world around us. Music is an expression of that. Using instruments to convey the mood of the story. Theory as tools not rules to help say things in a way that is felt, making that tone as important as what you say. We feel when done correctly, it is not only moving but enlightening and enjoyable. We hope you enjoy the songs. It was fun! This project goes to prove how significantly important supporting art in our society is. Vital to human nature, whether in schools, churches, community or just family fun. Bottom line: Support the Art form.
