CHAPTER

Over in Appointments

Appointments is the second track on Julian Baker's album. The first is an instrumental called Over but there's no gap between the two tracks. I wanted for that tiny arc that occurs within over to indicate how the rest of the record would flow from despair into provisional hope. A lot of how we processed the vocals was also based on mimicking emotion being told in the verbal lyrical part. The record is all told in first person but is an attempt to locate the self in relation to where you are inside your own head.
