Q: I've heard different artists/musicians/writers say different things about this... just curious what your thoughts are... Do you have an overarching concept or vision that guides your work? Zappa called this 'conceptual continuity' and it was a huge aspect to his music. I've also noticed this a lot in Prince's music (a lot of songs are self-referential or reference other songs, and there's certain little recurring rhythmic patterns that he uses, and certain ideas, like sexuality and spirituality, get revisited often). Dwayne Thomas Jr., a great bass player, takes it a step further and says that you should write down your own artistic vision and read it daily... So do you have your own, specific vision or 'conceptual continuity'? It doesn't have to be something that is clearly evident to fans, but just something in your own mind that your working towards, or kind of ties everything together for you?
A: there wasn't, until i realized that in a finite life-time i had better start acknowledging one. in other words, it is tempting to want to do a million different types of things under different names and be the best everything separately, but at a certain point i realized that in just 1 lifetime it's going to be much better if i just admit that i'm just one person. which was the kind of breakthrough that led to me getting a site, settling on one name, and adopting a "more is more" strategy of choosing which things to put on the site
