ABOUT THE ALBUM // LUVJONEZ // TABULA RASA

The title may seem ambiguous, but it's not that deep. The 2010 Mac Laptop that I still use to demo tracks and edit audio, takes so long to load videos on Youtube, that it often registers blank boxes with no titles in these weirdly balanced grid patterns.

To me, it is a visual metaphor for the blank slate, or Tabula Rasa, and often how my mind feels when I sit down to start a new project from scratch.

I make new tracks everyday and at some point, I stumble upon an image or artwork that inspires the theme of a new song or album. That's what this grid of blank loading screens represents to me; starting over or waiting to fill in the blanks.

Starting over with some samples I've flipped in the past, always wanted to flip, and some that I may flip again in the future, or just making sketches and ideas for future me to tackle, with some quotes from favorite places.
