Gusto! by Buddy Peace

A salute to my past, an acknowledgment of the present, and all created with a respect for the future, whatever forms it may take.

This project was such a lot of fun to make, from the initial idea to the last moments of saving the project, and was as refreshing as it was cathartic to put together.
Refreshing in that it was a complete ball to throw together bits and pieces from majestic creations in their own right, and cathartic in so much as - on a personal tip - it felt like it was answering to a lot of calls within me.
I wanted to throw drumkits down stair cases.
I wanted to tie double bass strings across skyscrapers and walk across them blindfolded.
I wanted to snorkel with trumpets and saxophones.
Percussion? I wanted to tie it to fireworks and launch it high into the atmosphere.
For sure, this is hyperbole, but what I'm getting at is that I just wanted to make a fucking godalmighty racket, and I think I accomplished that.

And it felt WONDERFUL.

So here it is, my gift to you. I call it 'Gusto!' - a joyful noise, and celebration of the raw.

Thank you so much for your eyes and ears. I really hope you like this one.

All love.
