“… Nocturnal Parade will take you by the hand, walk you into the forest and let you hang out there by yourself for a minute…”
When I began working with Valeska (Kevin Leahy) I knew I had struck gold. Always had it been a struggle to find musicianship with an individual who would understand the sound I wanted and be able to pinpoint it in a flash boil. This young man knocks it out of the part when it comes down the producing aspect, technicality aspect and overall craftsmanship of a piece of music.
We knew we wanted to flesh out a recording that we would be proud of. A recording with a particular facet and eye for detail. In fact, what you are listening to took roughly 3-6 months to complete. We took our time. Our sweet time. Some would say why would you do this? Just record a song and move past it…
Yet, after the few years that have passed on by - when I place these headphones on my head and listen to what we created I can’t help but want to cry. We were really proud of this piece and I don’t give a rat’s behind what anybody thinks. This is Nocturnal Parade. I wrote this song and Valeska titled it. We recorded it together.
Valeska and I still stay in touch but we haven’t found the time to release any new music together. He is always working on something brilliant and you can check out his bangers here.
