Make no mistake, creative productivity during quarantine is 100% a coping mechanism, no matter how jammin the results are. 
Here's a preview of the upcoming album, which I'll probably release at some point vaguely soon??

Aquaflux - DEMO

The genesis of that one motif that I used throughout the entirety of Serenity Glitch! Despite the fact that this track is not on the album! Neat.

Hey quarantine, let's talk about shame.

I left the full file title in this because that 2.20AM is pretty crucial to the understanding of this piece. In 2016, I told everyone, including myself, that I was going to spend the summer writing a requiem. And I kinda did it. Kinda. It was going slowly, and if you know anything at all about my process you know that nothing ever goes slowly. 

I had made very little progress on the thing. More than the average person would have, for sure, but by my own standards I was failing spectacularly at something that was, frankly, a risky use of my time to begin with. And then one night I spat this out. This piece. I sat down at 23:30 on July 11th 2016, according to the file history, and less than three hours later had written... this.

I have never been proud of it.

I have never posted it anywhere.

Four years later (holy heck I am old) I'm awaiting orders for a pandemic response mobilization and it seems like a damn silly thing not to have shared this while it was the most emotionally salient piece of my life, so here, have this reminder of my failure, enjoy this bit of vulnerability that I've chosen to fling into the internet void in an attempt to become some better version of myself. Hope you enjoy.

Also a note to literally anyone who read this far (including myself): The moral of the story is not to embrace failure, even though the result here is damn good if I do say so myself. Let's not celebrate what we could not make happen. The moral of the story is that my angstbrain spit out an orchestral thing and we're going to listen to it now, capisce?

String Quartet?? FULL - 7:12:16, 2.20 AM

Throwback to like a year ago when I had a TBI and sleep got really really weird and I ended up releasing this bizarre concussive Thing because all I could do was write unsettling electrofusion jams

Incidentally also the genesis of my naming convention, ie "oops, pressed save before thinking of a title, guess this piece is called uuuhhhhhh corn... dog." And now I've got to write something called corndog.

Full album is available on all known streaming platforms etc etc I am not using my precious Minutes here to re-release the entire thing

Serenity Glitch

went to the store for something sticky

Remixing yourself is the musical equivalent of citing your own academic paper

All hail the mighty Lump of Life, light of the universe, our divine ruler, the omniscient one hiding beneath the waves-

I Missed You While You Were In The Void aka quarantine album #1 is now available on Spotify and most other streaming services, and you can download it on my bandcamp page if you're just that obsessed. Best served with headphones, but I'm not going to tell you how to live your life.
