Soul or the Door, as dubbed anew from the old XPS will not benefit further from continued instrumental development until vocals and lyrics are integrated into its splendor. I've been saying this for a long time now - since 2005, very few words have been arranged to live within the music.
Until now. Oh wait, may as well plug a link before you lose your interest, if you've made it this far:

The task was always too grand! I'd created such a volume of music that the challenge of prosing it grew beyond the scope of what I could dare muster. The whole was much larger than the sum of its parts, thus, I've begun compartmentalizing it. Each track is being divided down to its elements, "physically" separated to manageable pieces.
That being said, energy has been dedicated to the final goal, with a developing product! Imagine that. The record plays from mood-fitting queues and the words flow out from mind thru pen to page. Forgive the direction that they may not seem to take as most of the prose start with no intent, but maybe a fitting phrase or a few words, letting a form of free association chisel out words onto paper with the impression of a ballpoint pen. With diligence and practice they're flowing stronger and more concisely.
It's been pretty natural as I don't force it out. Themes are developing. Confidence is up as is productivity. That is how it is right now. Hah - I read back on some of last year's post from around this time. Good stuff.
