Merald Drive was a great experience for me in many ways witness and to be apart of it’s birth with creator Marc VanClaggett. I learned first had what it was like to put together the musical pieces of magic, fine tuning and where the music comes from in the depth of the soul of this artist. Marc has had many years experience in this industry but it is almost like he is coming into a new stage with excitement and passion for himself to share with others. Yes, artist on a whole creates for the the enjoyment and pleasure of others but always remember that art, music is something that come from within themselves and is very personal with stories of their own. Some stories will may come to learn as others is strictly up to our interpretation.
Originally, at Marlex Records planned to release this album in 2012 and obstacles came into play almost making the labor of it’s birth so challenging. I knew that this was part of her story and there needed to be a delay. Many do not know stories that go into the process of creation and producing. With many artist, there is just that one thing that needs to be changed or tweaked. This rings very true when it comes to Marc VanClaggett. Merald Drive was my true experience into understanding the sound as I heard some of the pieces change over time and learned to really hear the change.
Windsor Mill Road is one I listened to in variation as as this particular piece took on the life of it’s own through the loss of a dear friend and Marc’s father in 2012. So when I listen to it, I understand. You would have loved the first version and even the 2nd but what you get to experience today from Windsor Mill Road is Marc VanClaggett’s heart. Close your eyes and listen. (Windsor Mill Road is Dedicated to John Wesley, Marc’s father)
I have said it time and time again, how proud I am of this man’s work ethics, creativity and heart. I thank him for allowing me to experience the music in a new way and to learn and grow from his industry knowledge along with allowing me to explore my own path to enhance what we do at Marlex Records.
Yes, Marc VanClaggett is the create of the music but Merald Drive feels like my baby too.
