Between Eric Campuzano's crazy schedule and my busy one, I was in a major predicament trying to find a time when we both were available for the interview. We finally connected after he returned from a trip to Nashville last week. There he had been mixing Satellite Circle's newest project, which he also produced. The interview is rather brief, but Eric has a way of saying of covering wide topics with few words.
Alyssa Johnston: How's your search
for the record label going so far?
Eric Campuzano: umm, it's going, things
are happening...
AJ: So what about Pacifico?
Eric: The entity of what we recorded
might never actually come out. Out of the 10 songs we recorded, probably
only 6 will be released, we'll be putting out a single later.
AJ: A single on top of the EP?
Eric: Yes. We do want to release
stuff, but we're kind of in a bit of a jam.
AJ: So Pacifico as a whole album might
never be released?
Eric: Yes, it's just as frustrating
for us you know? It's just like, we had a lot of plans but a couple doors
opened up, and we pursued them, and other doors were closed in the process.
But it just took forever to record, like 6 months. It's frustrating.
AJ: What songs might not ever be released?
Eric: "I've Got the Rock and Roll"
and "El Rey"
AJ: That's too bad, those are great
songs!
Eric: Yeah.
AJ: Do you think you'll ever get around
to touring or anything?
Eric: Yeah, we're hoping to.
We all want to, we just need to get a record out first.
AJ: So pretty soon after you get one
out you'll tour?
Eric: I'd like to think so.
