专辑简介

Derek Schmidt is a bay area songwriter that has played in various projects from folk to electronic to individual composition commissions. He'd like to emphasize craft and lyrics as best as he can and wants to move the 'songwriter' genre farther as a vital art form separate from its popular music limitations. It's all about the construction and bringing the constructed piece to an audience for communication. It's about minimal production, maximum earnestness, and an almost neurotic urge to communicate ideas larger than himself and his audience all through music and words.
