In Solitude

by K Gocebe a.k.a. The Strange & Odd Secrets Club


What is The Strange & Odd Secrets Club? It’s not a club, or even a band. It’s really just one person – Me. Hello there! I try to put an emphasis on making my songs sound like a collective effort rather than the solo project that it truly is. Through some “social experimenting” with other musicians I found that I work much better in solitude. Part of this is due to my insecurity surrounding vulnerable lyrical and arrangement ideas, but also because I love taking on the personal responsibility of creating each element of a song.

Listen to the EP while reading the text.

With that being said, I would love to talk a bit about my latest EP; II?. 

What greatly inspired me when making this EP was the warmth and delicate dynamics of some of my favourite albums from the early to mid 1970’s. While many an artist would agree that songs are never truly finished, I much in the same regard consider the sound of this EP not to be fully-realized, but I learned a lot about mixing and arrangement in the process. Overall I consider it a step towards replicating the retro sound that I’ve always loved.
