Another one take with the ukulele. Music is a powerful outlet to release painful energy that otherwise could have become implosive.

Thank you for listening.

Alone Time

This one's for every person going for their dreams, and working hard to make it into their industry every single day, but hasn't quite made it yet. Keep climbing.

For the Bop Pop contest. I'm supposed to sound like a crotchety old prospector when I mumble rap, right?

Thanks for listenin'.

Of A Ghost [PREVIEW]

Dogs are cool. 

Very raw acapella cover I recorded with the laptop mic. Kinda like how it's not processed other than some reverb and ruff (heh heh, dog humor) touches in Logics.

Thanks for doin' that stuff with your ears.

Will The Puns Ever End? No. No they won't.

The Ladder [TEASER]

◁ ◁ ◁

Created for the documentary, 'Plume The L.A. Exide Contamination Documentary'(https://z-upload.facebook.com/events/2196708043916314/) It was not used.

I do not know anything for certain, but I do love you, and I believe there will still be snow.

never ends.

Recorded this on my phone (Daisy Chain App) something seconds ago. Really like roughing spontaneously brief one takes, in this case, a song I never heard before, ‘On and On’ by Finn came on my Spotify thing randomly. I sang over the opening without thinking, and wanted to jot the idea down. The guitar part is from the intro of the aforementioned song. This song: https://open.spotify.com/track/6L2pdem9gh3wHpIahEQZpp?si=rBTVPy32Tk2Zc-O4NhV3JQ

Goodbye Moon

Cover of Grains by Bonobo, but also not. It was inspired by the initial melody, but then sort of became it’s own made up gibberish/half-Gregorian hymns possibly. Going to make it a larger thing, but here's a quick blip for the time being. I like little moments. This is one of them.

Irreverence\Grains [Teaser]

Mild spoilers; guitar parts for upcoming songs i wrote. Various wonderment, clap trap about all that and whatnot, shebang shebang, put that thing back where it came from or so help me.

@32rabbitsinabusinesssuit for the rough parts.
