This artist's article has been removed and set to redirect to Palaeo at least twice so far based on the opinion that the artist does not merit an entry, as he has only released on self titled album. To challenge that, I note here that he has just completed a YEAR LONG PROJECT (roughly the equivalent to "36 albums") which contains 365 original songs (again, in only as many days). A lot of his approach to his art is intentionally contrary to the established system of major label dominance. He is in fact looking to embrace a change that is on its way in the music business--the dawning of the age of digital distribution (all of said songs are currently available on his website), and the state in which "physical media" is left in the wake of this new age. Paleo is at the forefront of this era of music, independent of major labels and traditional media conventions. He is an artist driven by a deep desire to create art. This may seem redundant but it is this fact that fundamentally drives him. Not "commercial success" or "money" per se, but an idealistic (to be sure) and unrelenting need to create. His art is about music. In a lot of ways, that seems to be a minority position.
