Just trying to live the dream 
I'm just an artist from a small town, trying to live my young childhood dream. I owe all this to little 5 year old me.

As of today, I am recording on a RODE NT1 5th Gen mic! Meaning a raise in audio quality! Keep an eye out for the re-releases!

Single - "Us" will be out next week!


Audio Quality is poor. I'm looking to get a real mic and/or studio time soon!! Before then, if anyone has tips on how they get clean sound with no studio, I'm all ears!

IF YOU ARE A SCAMMER, I WILL NOT REPLY TO YOU. I WILL BLOCK AND REPORT YOU. YOU ARE NOT AS SMART AS YOU THINK YOU ARE!

Cookout Special - EP is coming out July 1st, 2025
Eerie Sisters Unison - Album is coming out October 30th, 2025
on all streaming platforms

Semi Artist and an okay Producer, Songwriter, and around-good guy. Why not have others sing your songs? That sounds like this one person.......

Dear Universe. Please stop all war on planet Earth and give all humans Peace now 🙏🏽

Thanks a centillion for ALL the support. I love you all for helping me in so many ways with what I've loved doing for 38 years, making music. This is a human made list of life dives. I'd happily explain any process to you if you wish or are wondering something about TBD. Just ask, I'm Carl and I love sharing what I've discovered and learned especially in the songs themselves. I see songs as one of the finest ways to learn something and bolt your truth to on any subject in a direct yet maybe less imposing manner as your singing it and making it mellifluous. It's hard to sing what you feel is a lie so in my view writing truly honest lyrics and making them songs can be a mini thesis for you on any subject.

No AI here... AI creativity insults my entire existence and the memory of all the dead artists that got their amazing work plagiarised to build current LLMs. I actually hope we legislate to fix that in the future if possible. Delete it and start again in my view. Building an Artificial Intelligence on stealing 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Very clever! I'll stick with my actual intelligence thank you very much!
I do respect there are positive applications using AI music and in the future they will hopefully grow to being great for humanity. Right now though I believe there's a responsibility for artists to paint how humans make this world of music so generations that will only experience the world with AI music have a proper reference to retain and grow with. It's a fight for the soul of art until the soul of art is saved. Then we can utilise AI creativity more in my opinion but we have to make it an environment that doesn't wipe out individual evolution evolving music like they have done. A machine doing it for you is more matrix then artist. I had actually collaborated with a couple of AI artists and naively excepted them at face value. I nuked those songs though even though I made them very real... No thanks don't want to spread any of that shit! If you noticed this and saw me as a hypocrite I don't blame you but unfortunately that's the fake vs real guess world we are starting to need to navigate at the moment! Hopefully it won't make me overly protectionist about who to embrace! Something needs to change fast. I've decided to stop following obvious AI accounts and I'm sorry if we have built up a relationship but it's a battle so... and it's not ok the current status quo... and every AI account that.doesnt lay bare what it is you are creating the problem so I can't support you any more and I don't mind if you stop spreading my music either. Thanks human to human but not with AI music as the medium thanks very much!

I am now officially an Anti AI artist... completely! until we are being conscientious about it collectively. Until then it's war to save the soul of music and I'll happily help on the frontline! If you use AI .. Tell people how and why and prove it! Then we can all move towards that consientious use of this new tech. Have your personal reckoning if you use it and don't be a wimp! Whether you are too lazy to become a musician whether you can't or whether you just don't care...  We need you to care please! The kids that will be artists need that care now! Only honesty in how these free tools are used can inspire them to better themselves and for them not to be dumbed down by them! That's the risk. we cancel the want to make it in people!

Thank you if you've read this far. I guess also with my music I do aim to change the minds of people I don't agree with. I'm not an imposing person in everyday life but in my music, the overlord of my existence comes out. What can I say.. I've punted for that perfect universe in words and songs since I was a teen... So thats nearly 30 years ... 25 of which only I read everything... So in that sense this is just normal me... It's all love and it's all for the greater good.
Not God... For GOOD!

Thanks Universe
