Energy baths, cinematic songs, micro sound, minimalist soundscapes. Music to rest to, sleep with. Most of what you're hearing is live and looped electric bass, lightning in a bottle. There's guitar on one, some kick drum on others, live improvisation mostly, with help of electrification. Textures, breaths, gestures, drones & glitches. 

Special thanks to all of my family (by blood or otherwise), friends, especially everybody who has extended support and assistance. Jon Morris and Edward Loveall for their textural contributions to 'Tonight we win". Lakland, G&L, NS Designs, Ableton. Special thanks to Bradford Hastings, Fionn McCabe and Joan Bishop.

Chakra Yoga 1hr15 - Sara Crosby, Tanory Ateek with Bassappella (Chris Brown)

"Minimalism at it's best... it's these hints of electronica that have been dappled throughout his music to create something quite ethereal and, honestly, something quite unlike anything i've heard before."

"Beautiful. Utterly and absolutely."

"Incredible. It's amazing that anybody could make music sound this nice."
