Take a splash of Trip Hop, a dash of Blues, two healthy measures of Jazz and a finger of Rock, mix well (preferably in a clean Pro Tools), and pour into a decent Hi Fi. Then simply lie back and let A Million Little Lies soothe away the stresses of the day...Warning: A Million Little Lies may produce symptoms ranging from mild melancholia to extreme suicidal depression. If affected do not operate heavy machinery or send a drunken txt to your ex.
LIE NUMBER ONE: Artistic integrity...once you can fake that you've got it made.
One of the most important keys to becoming a successful musician is to convince others of your integrity and dedication to the 'Art' of music. Although those in the business know it's a business, it is vital that others think of it as an 'Art' and the musician as an 'Artist'. One of the 'secrets' of this deception is LOOKING THE PART. Whether you favour the unshaved, haggard and filthy look, the artful post-modern dilletant, the besuited pop pixie, or indeed any of the off-the-rack fashion statements one can now easily purchase from High Street stores such as Next or Top-Shop; it is vital to cultivate the image of the 'Artist' who is busy working around the clock battling to complete their latest creation. Sacrificing health and happines. Sacrificing all to the feiry muse that drives you inexorably onwards to greater and greater heights. The general public are particularly suseptible to this ruse. In a world of disposables and in built obsolecence, they feel much better knowing they are getting not only what they paid for, but possibly something far greater - something 'Artistic'.
