The Lagniappe Recorder
Lagniappe is a small gift given to a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase (such as a 13th doughnut when buying a dozen), or more broadly, "something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure."
Or as I say "a little something special".

Everything is music, I'm loving the imperfections; they bring life to sound. Don't recognize the boxes around it as valid though... Love some jazz in my funk, some rock in my minimal, some punk in my ambient. 
The ever growing composition in my head has absorbed and continiously tries to harmonize my drawings, my paintings, my words and my music. It's no small job, but someone's got to do it...

On indefinite hiatus.

Ali: electric and acc. guitars, bass, BFD2, production & mixes
Hans: acc. guitar, bass, vocals, songs (well, most of) & lyrics

When your overwhelmed its always related to thoughts from the past, or for the future, 
Its in our nature as humans to be more present with the moment you are in. As we are separated from nature now, logistically and mentaly...we have lost touch with our nature.
So there are things in life that are good for us to practice and presence could be the most significant. How do we access the future and past ? We cant because we are always in the moment...the past and future are just in your imagination, from the moment your in.
Know Thyself Purely By Nature,
The rest takes good care of itself.
Observe beyond the spectrum of senses... there is nothing predictable nor linear regarding what I create. Many of my songs are made up of multiple genres ,  My purpose is to connect and be undivided.
We are consciousness and that makes us human.

I create music out of love for it
I try to transform my feelings and emotions into music :)
I do not and will never use AI to produce music, materials for videos on YT come from free websites Pixaby and Pexles
Music connects people! :)
Thank you all for your time to listen to my music, I appreciate it :) - cheers

Breaking Elements is an independent project which began in 2014 by Austin Ropp and Scott McNab. Our music blends acoustic, ambient-electronic, and rock music together. We have written many songs from demos to releases on streaming platforms, and post some of our favorites here. We hope you enjoy.

Music is the universal language, and those who speak it fluently create new words for us all to use. 

Artists struggle at times to collaborate even if they know each other, but Tripoint area producer Max is taking those efforts to a new level. 
Under the project name XNM, uploads a number of raw files and unfinished ideas to Soundcloud and puts out an open invitation: 
Any and all musicians who are willing to add to the sounds can do so, even if they are complete strangers. 
The creations are compiled into a series of singles, with four installments being released thus far.
