WHO ARE YOU?
Val Matthew Emmich. Who are you?
I’M YOU. YOU’RE CURRENTLY INTERVIEWING YOURSELF.
Oh. Neat. Go on then.
YOU’VE PUT OUT 5 ALBUMS. WHAT ARE THEY?
The Fifteen Minute Relationship (2001), Slow Down Kid (2003), Slow Down Kid (2004), Sunlight Searchparty (2006) and Songs Volume 1: Woodstock (2007)
WHY DO YOU HAVE ONE LISTED TWICE?
Oh. Because they’re basically the same album with a couple different songs, different producers, recorded and mixed at different studios, and released by different labels.
THAT’S WEIRD.
Tell me about it.
YOU’VE SHOT A LOT OF VIDEOS. WHAT’S YOUR TAKE ON VIDEOS & THEIR IMPORTANCE?
I don’t think they’re important at all but they can be fun. Coming up with a visual representation of a song can be a tricky thing. There is risk of possibly over-simplifying the meaning of a song and perhaps ruining the ambiguity that makes it work for some people. I feel mystery is a very important part of music. But I also love film and the emotion that can be communicated through that medium and so making videos for me is toying around with that aspect…channeling a different type of emotion.
SPEAKING OF FILM, YOU’VE ALSO MADE ONE OF THOSE. CORRECT?
Yes. Well, I didn’t make it but I was a part of making it. My 2006 album Sunlight Searchparty came packaged with a DVD containing the film It’s Only Your Life: The Making Of Sunlight Searchparty. It was an hour long documentary directed by Matt Schuman showing the recording process and showing us discussing the inspiration behind making the album.
