“I’ve recorded it on my laptop since 2009 with a logic program that I can barely use and a $ 100 microphone.
“I sent it and didn’t hear anything until January when they said ‘Lucifer wants it, are you interested? “
He was inspired by the news headlines to write the song.
“The song was based on all the things that are happening, but there is still this cool side of humans that we have and that we can cling to.”
The song had resonated with people around the world and many had sent messages to it, he said.
“The first four weeks I spent three hours a day just responding to people. That’s what you want as an artist: that people can use what you’ve written to achieve something. “
Labels from around the world had also contacted the material he wanted, something he had in abundance.
“I have a lot of things in the works that are being finished and now I’m excited about what I can do with them.”
