This vinyl record was crowd-funded on kickstarter.com. Emily West requested $19,999 and $34,886 was raised by 178 backers to record, produce and manufacture the album. Emily posted: Dear Diary, Sometimes it feels like I have spent my life waiting. Waiting for my nails to dry. Waiting for water to boil, for the coffee to cool, for love to walk my way. For the right person, to take notice of my art and build a museum around it. Now I know that the right person...is me. So I have built a musical museum. A curated walk through the maze of my mind. The wonderment of my world. The pretty and sometimes painful, pictures on my walls. The pages of my Diary. Welcome to the soundtrack, that is me. The money you give will pay for the producer, engineers, mixers, musicians, mastering, production, art and packaging of my magical rainbow record. It will pay for promotion, distribution, and maybe even a new pair of shoes for me to dance back onto stage in. The money you pay keeps music like mine in the world. So thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for helping me build.
Xo- Emily
