Words cannot explain how excited I am for some new Solange. Solange writes: MY CALIFORNIA MISSION FIRST STARTED FROM DECIDING TO RECORD MY ALBUM IN SANTA BARBARA. (OF COURSE NAMES AFTER THE HISTORY OF THE ”MISSIONS” STARTED THERE) BUT AFTER WEEKS OF COMPLETE ISOLATION AND LOTS OF FREAKY SOUNDS AT NIGHT ON A 5 ACRE ”PARADISE”, I DECIDED TO PACK UP AND FINISH MY ALBUM IN A FEW DIFFERENT PLACES IN CALIFORNIA. THESE ARE PICS TAKEN FROM THE HOUSE IM COMPLETING THE ALBUM IN. ME AND DEV ARE PRETTY MUCH FINISHING THE TOUCHES ON THE WRITING SIDE AND IM RECORDING THE FINAL VOCALS. THIS HOUSE IS AMAZING, COMPLETELY INSPIRING AND LITERALLY ON TOP OF THE WORD (OR AT LEAST LOS ANGELES). AFTER FINALLY FIGURING OUT HOW TO COMPLETELY CAPTURE MY SOUND, ( THIS ACTUALLY TOOK ME FIGURING OUT I SOUND BETTER ON A 250 BUCK LIVE MIC AND DITCHING THE $7000 “TOP OF THE LINE” SHIT) I AM ON A ROLL AND LOOKING FORWARD TO FINISHING UP SOON.
