Gosh, there's a lot to get into.

It's the Zach Sang Show.

Hello, beautiful human. I'm Zach.

That's Daniel.

Welcome to the studio.

Eric the Architect is here.

We have a brand new album to discuss.

I've never been here before, which is very honest and true, right?

I've never been here before.

You've never been here before, that is true. But you've never made a solo album before either, right? I've never been here before. Oh, you've never been here before, that is true.

But you've never made a solo album before either, right?

No.

So I want to talk all about it.

Flap with Shambis, life is an uncle, there's just a lot to cover here.

But can you tell me why, I guess, now is the right time to release a solo album,

but really what pushed you to want to make something of your own, on your own?

I think it was a mix of things, right?

Like, as a producer, there's a lot of beats that just go into the stratosphere.

They float around.

And then you kind of have like this individual story that I think that kind of gets missing when you in a group.

So, you know, being a producer and an artist, sometimes juggling those things and become like, oh, like you have this part of you that's like still not really being told.

And I always felt like I wanted a moment to do that.
