Holworks Evolution
Hi All,
This is Mark Holman from Fayetteville, North Carolina saying hello. Thanks for allowing me to send updates about my musical musings. Summer is rapidly winding down with Labor Day only a week away, Hurricane Harvey is bearing down on Texas, and I am writing music to keep pace with the delivery. Rehearsing for my almost nightly broadcasts on Periscope, I am feeling more in tune and alive with the concepts I initiated years ago. I must thank all of you for this regeneration as I thought you might like to hear a lot more of the songs I have written, so here you go. My page is plastered with them.
I have not put all of these up on iTunes yet. I was hoping to transform them. I realize now, like the movie, this is as good as it gets for me. However the instrumentation is recorded, or vocals, I can only do the best I can with the ideas I hear. I long for proficiency. Rehearsal brings me closer, yet no resources drain my ambition one penny at a time. I always told myself, if it is good enough, they will come. . .ok. I still would like a boost.
I am curious to know what you think. After all, I contribute noise to an already noisy universe. Does any of it make you take pause to listen? Do I fit into your playlist? Feedback is so important especially because I am too close to the material and cannot be objective beyond self satisfaction of having created something from nothing. Is that something more than nothing? I sing about that in Next to Nothing.
Most of all, I am grateful, humbled, and at a loss for words to show my appreciation for the few thousand receiving this message. The world is a small place as evidenced by how diverse you are. Guess that is why I have no genre, no preconceived notions of how a song is supposed to turn out, rock, country, folk, R&B, dance,blues, etc. It just happens to be the flavor for the story behind the music, my forte, if I have a forte. Hope I make you smile!!!!
All the best from NC!!!!
Mark
