Cooking lines 171 00:19:33,519 --> 00:19:41,559 makes some strains, ties a knob with the nails on the face, And 172 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:51,799 it's all in my head. I wish it all goes away.

It is the 179 00:20:51,880 --> 00:21:00,240 same breath that keeps you alive when too hot and tempo pled. What to 180 00:21:00,519 --> 00:21:08,960 complain? Because it's all in my head?

Now on the album, is it? Is it all you? 186 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,720 Did you have any collaborators or no, it's just me. It was recorded 187 00:21:37,759 --> 00:21:42,279 in like a month. I've had these songs maybe four since I started my 188 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:47,000 undergrad so like two years ago. Yeah, And well I've had songs since 189 00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:48,680 two years ago, and I've been writing and writing and writing, and I 190 00:21:48,839 --> 00:21:52,400 just wanted to prove to myself that I could make something that I hear in 191 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:53,920 my head. And I wanted it to sound very low fi, like I 192 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,880 love the sound of tapeists from like sixties recordings. Oh wow. Yeah. 193 00:21:59,079 --> 00:22:03,039 I just wanted to make it sound as like organic from what my like. 194 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:07,440 I consider organic and stuff like that as possible. Yeah. Yeah. Have 195 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,480 you only performed solo or do you?

I think would really 199 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,599 be fun to have a band. I've actually kind of been writing a bit 200 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,880 more poppy lately and really yeah, yeah, yeah, I would love to 201 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,920 have some drums within stuff like that.

And it's very funny 242 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,119 because now every time I go back to the city, I get like, 243 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,160 and this was never the case growing up, but I get like anxiety. 244 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,599 I'm like, oh my god, was it always this dirty? Was it 245 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,319 always like all like these people here and stuff like that? Yeah, yeah, 246 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,720 you don't notice it when you're like living it, and now it's very 247 00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:26,480 noticeable when you like live in the woods twenty four to seven. Yeah, 248 00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:29,559 no doubt. Yeah, that is a big change. So why the change. 249 00:25:29,599 --> 00:25:32,880 What brought you here? H a bad breakup, I guess you could 250 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,880 say, and I just needed music. I was doing music back then and 251 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,440 it wasn't working out. I was just not taking myself seriously. I wasn't 252 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,759 taking good care of myself. And I was very lucky to have parents who 253 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,400 or like come up here and spend a year to think about things. And 254 00:25:48,599 --> 00:25:52,119 what happened was I was actually about to leave for Austin, Texas, and 255 00:25:52,319 --> 00:25:56,680 like a month before that happened, I met someone and I was like okay, 256 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,880 and I still went to Austin, Texas. But then I moved back 257 00:26:00,039 --> 00:26:03,079 here and we've been together ever since. Oh very cool, congratulations, thank 258 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,119 you. Now, why when you were when you were planning to go to 259 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,359 Austin, what was the reason was that the music scene there? Cost of 260 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:11,759 living too? Oh? Really? Yeah? The cost of living was really 261 00:26:11,799 --> 00:26:15,759 good. And I didn't know. I didn't do the research like I would 262 00:26:15,759 --> 00:26:18,599 have done now. I was just like, yeah, Austin be cool, 263 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,400 right right? Yeah, that is a great city. It's beautiful. Absolutely. 264 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,440 Do you want to play another I'm down here more?

It's falling down that ring. 272 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:10,400 It's all the ways you make me feel and cry. So I want 273 00:27:10,519 --> 00:27:15,720 to take my hands and help me understand as we sit still, the world 274 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:22,400 is passed by. I recognize the mistrust I experience, the pain I've seen, 275 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:27,799 the way that men contend to lie. So I'll work hard each day 276 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,119 and think of how to say I'm here to love, not here, the 277 00:27:33,319 --> 00:27:41,079 change of mind for you know, where not were or so focused on the 278 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:48,279 way you're making sounds for you know it's time for you to go.

Because I made 285 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,079 you a promise, a promise I won't break. But I think I found 286 00:28:48,119 --> 00:28:55,279 a way to a compromise.

Oh yeah, yeah, I'm obsessed and John 333 00:32:10,279 --> 00:32:15,240 Mayer just because for me, everything that he plays just makes my legs like 334 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:20,079 kind of shake. So I love his music a lot. But I love 335 00:32:20,119 --> 00:32:22,920 a lot of music. I love sixties folks songs, which like I'm kind 336 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,000 of embedded in that type of tradition where my mom grew me up on, 337 00:32:25,079 --> 00:32:30,079 like Peter Paul Mary and Paul Simon and Joni Mitchell. I love jazz a 338 00:32:30,119 --> 00:32:32,720 lot, like I love Chet Baker, I love classical music. I love 339 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:37,599 I don't know. There's so much, and with Spotify now, it's like 340 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,759 you're always just discovering more and more. It's overwhelming. Yeah, yeah, 341 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:45,200 absolutely. John di Petro is in the Facebook live chat. Hi John, 342 00:32:45,519 --> 00:32:51,079 He says, wow, Eric is impressive. Yeah, absolutely absolutely, And 343 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,519 of course you can find him as a Temple Mountain online. I'm curious, 344 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:59,680 do people ever contact you thinking that you're a band because of the name Temple 345 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,279 Mountain? Not yet, but I'm just not It's it's still too early. 346 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,440 It'll happen. It'll happen, but I guess if you ever do decide to 347 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,240 bring in other people, yeah, or the more interesting question is will I 348 00:33:08,319 --> 00:33:14,960 ellude that I'm a band to get the gig. Yeah, sometimes there you 349 00:33:15,039 --> 00:33:19,480 go, there you go, he's thinking, he's a think, Oh my 350 00:33:19,519 --> 00:33:22,440 gosh, we were because we were talking earlier. You're starting to play out 351 00:33:22,519 --> 00:33:25,000 now now you're really looking to get out into the clubs and get into play 352 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,799 Absolutely. Yeah, I love it. And I'm surprised with how much I'm 353 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,640 enjoying live music because when I was in New York, I didn't really like 354 00:33:32,759 --> 00:33:37,599 playing live. I would do it, but I felt uncomfortable, and something 355 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:44,559 happened in my thirties when I'm just like, oh, this is not now. 356 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,519 Have you released anything else other than the album that? Uh not yet. 357 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,359 I'm releasing a video, like I said after this interview, and my 358 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:57,279 goals, I would like to have another record by the end of this year. 359 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,400 I have like some songs in mine and stuff like that. I'm also 360 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:04,279 doing I forget the name of the studio, like Lee Van Studios in Brooklyn. 361 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,760 I'll be doing a campaign for that and they do direct to vinyl recordings. 362 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,559 Oh no kidding. Yeah, So I'll be doing two songs for that 363 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,559 and it's like personal records and stuff like that. I'm very excited about that. 364 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,400 Now, what should we know about the video that's that you're going to 365 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:22,840 be releasing after the interview. It's for that song Interpersonal Relationships. It was 366 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:27,800 recorded by a guy named Omega Keene. His name's Max actually, and he's 367 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,079 in Keen and he does He did a really great job. We kind of 368 00:34:30,199 --> 00:34:32,840 tried to make it almost look like the album cover, so it's in black 369 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,960 and white and it's got like a bluish kind of hue to it, and 370 00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:40,840 it's a very simple music video. It's just me playing and performing and trying 371 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,360 to look as cool as I possibly could look. This was it wasn't an 372 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,960 easy task, and he succeeded, in my opinion, so I appreciate it. 373 00:34:49,199 --> 00:34:52,320 Is it your first music video? Yeah? Yeah, technically there. 374 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,599 I used to go by Eric Phillip, and if you scroll the internet you 375 00:34:55,679 --> 00:35:01,679 can find some slightly embarrassing videos of me playing to that name. But other 376 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,360 than that, this is the first time I've ever done something like professionally and 377 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:09,599 actually invested money into like my art and my dreams. Yeah yeah, well, 378 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,800 why why were you Eric Phillip? Is Phillip your middle day? Yeah? 379 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,360 Oh yeah, and my name is apparently named after Disney characters. I 380 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:20,320 like to bring that out. So Eric is the Prince from a Little Mermaid. 381 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,679 Oh and Philip is the Prince from a Sleeping Beauty. Oh no, 382 00:35:25,519 --> 00:35:30,239 cool cool Carol's and Warwitz joins us in the Facebook live chat. Hi, 383 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:34,320 Carol, Miriam said regarding she said, Kat Stevens, I was trying to 384 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,000 think of who he reminded me of. Kind of took me back in time. 385 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,519 Yeah, I asked about, you know, if you had other material 386 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,920 only because you strike me if someone who's probably always writing, I assume you've 387 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:47,599 got a lot of ideas that you haven't. It comes and goes. I'm 388 00:35:47,599 --> 00:35:51,519 also so I'm in grad school at the moment. So yeah, Like sometimes 389 00:35:51,559 --> 00:35:52,360 when I get home, the first thing I do is I just pick up 390 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:57,679 the guitar and something will come out. Yeah, but I'll get writer's block 391 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,159 for sure. And when I get that, yeah, oh yeah, and 392 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,760 when I get that, that's really difficult. Like I don't know, it's 393 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,920 I just don't want things to always sound the same, like I can't. 394 00:36:07,039 --> 00:36:08,960 And I love music that does this, but I can't ever just do very 395 00:36:09,159 --> 00:36:14,519 simple like bar chords. I need to, like my fingers need to be 396 00:36:14,599 --> 00:36:17,000 moving, like it's the ADHD in me. Yeah, so I don't know. 397 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:21,079 I'm when it comes. I do get writer's block, but once it 398 00:36:21,199 --> 00:36:23,719 breaks, then I have like I'll write like ten songs. Do you remember 399 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,920 the first song you ever wrote? I do. It's called nineteen ninety three. 400 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,840 I don't remember it by heart. I remember the riff. The riff 401 00:36:30,079 --> 00:36:37,079 was like something like that. Yeah, and I I'm not going to sing 402 00:36:37,159 --> 00:36:42,079 it, but it was. Yeah, it took me. You know, 403 00:36:42,199 --> 00:36:45,119 I'm still not very happy with my voice. And I say that, Yeah, 404 00:36:45,199 --> 00:36:46,320 I say that in a good way, like I'm always searching. But 405 00:36:47,159 --> 00:36:52,039 I did not sing like with confidence like five years ago. Yeah, yeah, 406 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,400 what got you to be able to sing with with more confidence? Have 407 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:02,639 you've taken lessons or no prozac? Prozac for sure, be honest. This 408 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:07,639 psycho pharmacology, like done ethically and properly helped a lot. Yeah yeah, 409 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:14,199 good good. You struggle with depression. I didn't realize it. Yeah yeah. 410 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,320 And then now I see life much different perspective. So yeah, yeah. 411 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:23,719 I in my family like intrusive thoughts I think are definitely like a thing. 412 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:28,039 And then my sister who's a neurologist, he was just like, have 413 00:37:28,119 --> 00:37:30,199 you thought about this? And gave it a try, and it's like, 414 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:35,840 bah, no kidding. Oh, that's good, that's good. You want 415 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,920 to play another other song? Sure, if you're just joining us, Temple 416 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:45,840 Mountain is here with us, alive in studio, sounded amazing. Sure this 417 00:37:45,920 --> 00:38:08,199 song is called the Unconditional. All I sees you, my thoughts can't be 418 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:15,480 alone. Oh, falling through the sky. I was thinking i'd fly, 419 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:22,679 but you cut me in your arms. And the day I was gone, 420 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:29,960 I tell you that I saw a happy to my songs. But dreams they 421 00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:37,960 fade away, and someday you'll be gone. Been running out of lights, 422 00:38:38,519 --> 00:38:45,880 been staying up too long, thinking how we've never met, And I'm willing 423 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:52,960 to make a bet that your dreaming is so wrong. And the day I 424 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:58,800 was gone, I tell you that I felt a rose by its thorns. 425 00:39:00,039 --> 00:39:07,920 And our hands stay bled. But I knew some day I be yours that 426 00:39:07,159 --> 00:39:14,079 dance with you, the moment so divine, like a blanket I held tight. 427 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:21,679 I always fear the unknown, but with you, the unknown feels so 428 00:39:22,159 --> 00:39:27,639 right. So I keep my eyes on you, keep you locked inside my 429 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:32,960 mind. And it's so hard just to see how every part of me it 430 00:39:34,079 --> 00:39:39,800 is just a shadow in the night and the day I was gone. I 431 00:39:40,079 --> 00:39:47,320 tell you that I saw a breath inside my home and I love the way 432 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:53,559 it looks at me. I love how it's all I can see, and 433 00:39:53,719 --> 00:40:21,679 I know it's more than fantasi coming r beautiful you Temple Mountain here with us 434 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:27,039 alive in studio this morning on Matt Connorton Unleashed. By the way, Melanie 435 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:31,000 La Liberty, one of our friends from Vermont, said, I love that. 436 00:40:31,119 --> 00:40:36,840 He just said that promoting good mental health is fantastic. I agree. 437 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,960 She also said mental health is health. It really shouldn't be separate from medical 438 00:40:40,039 --> 00:40:45,440 care. Yeah. Absolutely, yeah, absolutely. Do you have songs that 439 00:40:45,519 --> 00:40:50,239 deal with that subject specifically? So just this album I got. I just 440 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:54,159 finished in December my undergrad in psychology and I'm starting grad school now, and 441 00:40:54,880 --> 00:41:00,320 you know, an undergrad degree in psychology can't really do much outside in the 442 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,760 field. So I was like, well, I put all this money into 443 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,519 it, might as well make my album based on it. Interesting. Yeah, 444 00:41:06,559 --> 00:41:09,880 okay, so there's all the songs are based on psychological terms to a 445 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:14,000 certain degree. I yeah, see, I wondered about that, you know, 446 00:41:14,159 --> 00:41:15,400 like I saw a transference for example. Yeah, it's like you know 447 00:41:15,519 --> 00:41:17,239 that's uh, I know, I know a little. You know, I'm 448 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,000 a hypnotherapist, so I know, yeah, I saw that some very just 449 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,519 very basic psychology. But but I did notice that, yeah, diagnosis and 450 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:29,360 uh yeah, and they're loosely based on those terms. I want to I 451 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:35,559 should emphasize because yeah, yeah, did you go into did you go into 452 00:41:35,599 --> 00:41:38,800 the project intending that or did that happen organically? It happened organically. Yeah, 453 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,599 I think I've had other names for some of these songs. In fact, 454 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,840 I also struggle with names, like naming my songs like so, I 455 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:50,320 don't know, it just felt right. And I always like concept albums in 456 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,920 a sense, like in a way it doesn't have to be a full concept, 457 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:54,639 but like how many themes can you add to the record, and then 458 00:41:54,679 --> 00:42:00,519 how can you incorporate those themes into the following record. So, for example, 459 00:42:00,559 --> 00:42:02,880 I'm thinking for my next album, my album cover is like blue, 460 00:42:04,039 --> 00:42:07,000 it's black and white with a blueish hue, and I'm thinking doing something similar 461 00:42:07,039 --> 00:42:08,519 both a different color. So oh, it's like, yeah, keep the 462 00:42:08,599 --> 00:42:15,360 theme going. Okay, very cool, very cool, boiler alert, Yes 463 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,599 we have time? You want to play another one? Uh? Yeah, 464 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,320 I can figure something out. We're uh, if you're just joining us, 465 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:25,639 we have Temple Mountain here with us alive in studio. The album is called 466 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:30,599 Schema, and uh this is this is great and you sound amazing live. 467 00:42:30,679 --> 00:42:32,039 I mean the tracks you know sound great too, the studio tracks. And 468 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,039 well we'll play another studio song at the top of the hour. But uh, 469 00:42:36,119 --> 00:42:38,960 you sound sound fantastically that. Yeah, yeah, I appreciate you absolutely. 470 00:42:40,639 --> 00:42:45,960 Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna play this is the newest song I recorded 471 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,519 forty album before I released it.

Love is made beautiful Temple Mountain with us live in 490 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:57,760 studio here on Matt Connorton Unleashed. And by the way, I was noticing 491 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:04,039 on band camp this quote the good life is a process, not a state 492 00:46:04,079 --> 00:46:07,199 of being. It is a direction, not a destination. I appreciate you, 493 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,719 Carl Rodgers. Yeah, tell us about that. What does that quote 494 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,840 mean to you? Why is that there? Well, it's funny, that 495 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,719 was a good time because that song's based on that quote. So like the 496 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:19,760 chorus is the good life to dance for? It's just like a rephrasing of 497 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,480 it. Yeah, I don't know, I think one. I just love 498 00:46:22,599 --> 00:46:28,440 Carl Rodgers. I think Client Center therapy is like just so beautiful and like, 499 00:46:28,679 --> 00:46:31,440 I'm so fascinated by it. And I'm sure he has his imperfections like 500 00:46:31,519 --> 00:46:36,000 all of us do, but I just really find him inspiring. And that 501 00:46:36,639 --> 00:46:39,440 line just kind of reminds me to just breathe right, you know, like 502 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:44,920 take it. And I've really grown to love my mistakes. And I've made 503 00:46:45,039 --> 00:46:47,599 quite a few of them in life, and I've grown to really see how 504 00:46:47,639 --> 00:46:52,199 those mistakes have evolved me into a person that I quite enjoy. I don't 505 00:46:52,199 --> 00:46:57,119 wake up feeling ediolated anymore. I wake up feeling really proud of myself. 506 00:46:57,159 --> 00:47:00,280 And yeah, I think that comes from knowing what not to do. Right. 507 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,639 In order to know what not to do, you have to do it 508 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,719 sometimes. Sure, sure, yeah, it's part of learning. Absolutely absolutely, 509 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,639 no, I think. And that's uh, that's good advice, good 510 00:47:10,679 --> 00:47:15,320 advice for people. Now, what do you have coming up? We talked 511 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:19,880 about and we'll remind people too, uh before we uh before we wrap about 512 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,800 the video that's gonna be released right after the interview. But what else do 513 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:24,400 you have coming up? As far as do you have shows this weekend that 514 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:28,960 you want to plug or no, I have a family dinner tonight, so 515 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:35,159 no Monday. I'm playing on the eleventh, I'm playing in Guildford. I'm 516 00:47:35,159 --> 00:47:37,840 playing at Patrick's Pub. Okay, I'm gonna be the featured artist that night. 517 00:47:37,079 --> 00:47:43,039 Very excited. Do you have and sometimes you know from my own experience, 518 00:47:43,199 --> 00:47:45,639 I don't play anymore, but I have played a lot of bands and 519 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:49,239 whatnot. Do you have anybody that you kind of team up with, because 520 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,599 sometimes that happens organically. Where is there someone that you play a lot of 521 00:47:52,639 --> 00:47:58,159 shows with? Not yet, but I've grown to meet a couple of cool 522 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,679 cohorts. If you would that, I would love to show out, like 523 00:48:00,119 --> 00:48:04,719 I really love this band, Modern Fools, Okay. Yeah, Josh is 524 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,679 an incredible songwriter and very very talented musician, and he just does a lot 525 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:12,440 of the sound and stuff like that, and the whole band in that is 526 00:48:12,519 --> 00:48:15,880 incredible. John is the guitar player for that band. He does his own 527 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:19,960 stuff. He's fantastic. Ian Gallipo is a bass player for that band. 528 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:24,760 He also does singer songwriter stuff. Oh yeah, either we've had him on 529 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:29,679 or I've met him. He's he writes beautiful stuff. He just released a 530 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,679 song called I believe it's called The Little Things, okay, and that song 531 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:37,119 is gorgeous. There's also a guy named Dylan Patrick Ward who I'm hoping to 532 00:48:37,159 --> 00:48:40,519 do some shows with and he writes just incredible music. Okay, yeah, 533 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:45,880 very good. Do you think you'll ever collaborate with any of these folks? 534 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,840 I would love to. Yeah. I feel like, like we were talking 535 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,880 about earlier with recording, because you have the access to record, there's really 536 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:57,400 no reason why you shouldn't collaborate nowadays, right right, Yeah, Yeah, 537 00:48:57,519 --> 00:49:00,639 I would love to hear what like certain sounds would work toge because, for 538 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,440 example, Modern Fools they kind of do like alt country, so I don't 539 00:49:04,559 --> 00:49:07,280 personally do that, so I feel like it would be very cool to see 540 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,280 what the combination of that would be. Yeah, yeah, no doubt, 541 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:16,159 very good, very good. And where should people go to find to find 542 00:49:16,199 --> 00:49:20,719 you online? Is there a do you have a central hub or where should 543 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,679 people go to find Temple Mountain? So Temple Mounts and music dot Com for 544 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,599 sure, and then all my social links there will be on there. And 545 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:30,400 I definitely would say I use Instagram as my main connect with my you know 546 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:35,119 audience, if you will. Yeah, So that's the one I personally like 547 00:49:35,199 --> 00:49:37,159 to use the most I try to avoid. I love Facebook, but I 548 00:49:37,199 --> 00:49:42,000 also try to equally avoid it as possible for my own mental health. Yeah, 549 00:49:42,119 --> 00:49:45,199 that's interesting that you say that. I know that there have been no 550 00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:50,119 shortage of studies that show that when people either take a break or find a 551 00:49:50,159 --> 00:49:55,880 way to avoid entirely Facebook, their mental health improves. Photos don't really hold 552 00:49:57,079 --> 00:50:00,480 debates, right, So on Instagram you see photos of people just live in 553 00:50:00,519 --> 00:50:02,880 their lives, right, Like, I'm not saying there's not issues with that 554 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,320 either, but at least for me, it's very calming and relaxing, where 555 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:10,159 on Facebook, I just get it's like for me, it's personally like watching 556 00:50:10,519 --> 00:50:13,719 the news, which is a beautiful thing and an important thing to do, 557 00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:17,400 but it's just it gets really sad very quickly for me. Yeah. Yeah, 558 00:50:17,639 --> 00:50:22,000 there's a lot of uh, you know, negativity. Yeah, you 559 00:50:22,079 --> 00:50:25,559 know, Uh, it's it's hard to for example, working in this medium. 560 00:50:27,079 --> 00:50:29,960 Yeah, I don't have the luxury of just kind of disconnecting from Facebook, 561 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,559 but I've also kind of learned to just, i don't know, just 562 00:50:32,679 --> 00:50:37,079 let it roll off. Yeah. I imagine also for in your case, 563 00:50:37,199 --> 00:50:39,400 like you also get this, like privilege of you have you can use your 564 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:45,880 voice for like now you can direct a higher voice to like kind of help 565 00:50:45,159 --> 00:50:49,599 the community anything else, which is incredible. Oh thank you. Yeah, 566 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:52,599 yeah, that's that's that's what we try to do. But yeah, there 567 00:50:52,679 --> 00:50:57,199 is a lot of uh yeah, Facebook and Reddit is the other one that 568 00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,239 comes to mind. Yeah, I'm always I always forget about Reddit. What 569 00:51:00,519 --> 00:51:07,840 a cesspoolit My god, it's an interesting one. The horrible things you can 570 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,239 find. It used to be way worse too, Like it's really getting regulated 571 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:12,840 more and more. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. 572 00:51:13,159 --> 00:51:15,719 I use YouTube a lot too, like YouTube, to me is one of 573 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:20,760 the most important like websites of all time. Oh absolutely absolutely. It is 574 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,519 literally an educated source of knowledge if you want it to be. But of 575 00:51:24,599 --> 00:51:30,000 course there's trolls on YouTube. But for some somehow it's almost maybe it's because 576 00:51:30,039 --> 00:51:34,320 you don't have direct It's not like in the comment section of a video you 577 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,159 can really have a direct conversation with someone. It's just people commenting at each 578 00:51:37,199 --> 00:51:42,840 other. So if if a troll leaves something nasty, it's I think it's 579 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,199 easier to just gonna let it roll off you because it's like, well, 580 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,239 you know, it's not like you're replying directly to well you can't. Actually 581 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:52,320 you can reply directly to their comment. But people don't really bother on YouTube. 582 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:57,119 I'm always baffled about people commenting on YouTube personally, like because every time 583 00:51:57,159 --> 00:51:59,360 I watch a video, there's just never I never go like, oh, 584 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,480 I'm gonna come yeah, yeah, I never have this instinct to do it. 585 00:52:02,559 --> 00:52:05,760 But like you look at it's like, oh, one hundred thousand other 586 00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,199 people did. Yeah. Yeah, I'll give a thumbs up if I like 587 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:12,880 it, right, But I very rarely comment. But but sometimes and sometimes 588 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:17,400 the negative comments are oh some of them are brilliant. Yeah, yeah, 589 00:52:17,599 --> 00:52:22,559 you see some really uh, you see some really interesting stuff. Well, 590 00:52:22,639 --> 00:52:23,360 before we get to the top of the r and by the way, we're 591 00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:30,679 gonna play another studio track before we close out, but remind us about the 592 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:34,000 video. This is very important. Right after the interview, this is uh, 593 00:52:34,119 --> 00:52:37,039 this is gonna drop. Yeah, I'm gonna upload it onto YouTube with 594 00:52:37,199 --> 00:52:42,280 my iPhone. It's called Interpersonal Relationships. I played it earlier and I'm really 595 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,480 excited. Yeah, I'm just please any love and support it would help and 596 00:52:45,559 --> 00:52:50,599 only helped. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely Uh, so we encourage people to 597 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,639 uh, that'll be on Temple Mountain. That's the name of the YouTube channels, 598 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,960 Temple Mountain Music Music. Okay, very good, very good, and 599 00:52:58,199 --> 00:53:02,239 uh. We will also close out the segment with another studio track from Schema. 600 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:06,000 But I'll let you uh, I'll let you pick what should we play. 601 00:53:06,079 --> 00:53:09,079 Oh. If you guys like Harmonica's my opening track, counter Transference has 602 00:53:09,079 --> 00:53:13,199 a harmonica. Oh yeah, yeah yeah. Uh do you play the harmonica 603 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:17,920 on that? I yeah, I like tried. There was a harmonica holder 604 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,840 at a guitar center and I couldn't keep my eyes off of it. Yeah, 605 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:23,920 and I was just like, I'm gonna buy this, and then I 606 00:53:24,039 --> 00:53:27,639 wrote a song with it. Yeah. Do you do the thing where you 607 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,480 where you have where you you're playing guitar and you're playing the harmonica. I 608 00:53:30,519 --> 00:53:32,519 haven't done it live yet, but i've been I'm going to be. I'm 609 00:53:32,559 --> 00:53:36,039 gonna be doing it this Monday for the first time. Yeah. I can't 610 00:53:36,039 --> 00:53:37,320 know how you do that. I don't know if I would do it like 611 00:53:37,599 --> 00:53:42,920 permanently, like because it's a sound right. Yeah, it's been done, 612 00:53:43,079 --> 00:53:45,199 and but I wanted to have one song like all my favorite artists like the 613 00:53:45,199 --> 00:53:49,400 Beatles have a harmonica song, Elliot Smith has a harmonica song. John Mayer 614 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:52,320 as a harmonica song. I had to this is my harmonica song. Yeah, 615 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,360 we had a I don't know if you know Nick Rolser. We had 616 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,960 him on the show Else, Oh, a couple of years ago. Now, 617 00:53:58,039 --> 00:54:00,199 Oh, Nick is amazing. Yeah, but he but he does that. 618 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:01,840 I was talking to him about it, and I said him the same 619 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:05,239 thing I said to you. I said, because you mentioned the harmonica. 620 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:07,840 He mentioned a harmonica holder. I said, do you do the thing? 621 00:54:07,199 --> 00:54:09,159 And when I said the thing, you knew exactly what I meant. He 622 00:54:09,159 --> 00:54:10,880 said, oh, yeah, I do that. And I've it's always been 623 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:15,119 fascinated by it because when you do that, you're literally playing two instruments at 624 00:54:15,159 --> 00:54:19,480 once. You know which is I mean, I guess in a way it's 625 00:54:19,679 --> 00:54:22,360 with singing to your do it. Yeah, I guess in a way, 626 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,480 it's no different than singing and playing. But anythingels easier because with singing you 627 00:54:25,639 --> 00:54:30,119 have to like remember that you speak, and like with harmonica, at least 628 00:54:30,119 --> 00:54:35,000 the way I play, because I'm playing very very poorly. It's just you 629 00:54:35,079 --> 00:54:37,719 know, I'm just blowing into the thing, right right, it's more about 630 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,559 making sure you have enough breath into it. So you have to like breathe 631 00:54:40,559 --> 00:54:44,480 the right way if anything, and you have to like use your ear to 632 00:54:44,519 --> 00:54:45,960 make sure your pitches are right, because once again, I have no idea 633 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:50,159 what I'm doing on I don't actually I know it's like a it's a G 634 00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:52,679 major or a C major scale, but like I don't know, like oh 635 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:57,079 the chief right here, right right, Yeah, no that makes sense, 636 00:54:57,159 --> 00:54:59,880 but uh yeah, very cool, So we'll we'll give this a list. 637 00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:04,559 Counter Transference.

We will close out the segment with 642 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:20,119 this, but everybody else sit around. We got plenty more show to come. 643 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,199 But here it is.
