Boneset is the name of a plant once used for curing the flu and other sicknesses. It was used widely and for quite some time, but eventually it was discovered that this herb has no affects at all. I felt connected to this considering the time we are in. Pandemic creates mass fear around the globe and people are taking medicines when they are not the cure. Medications are used widely to give patients a quick fix so they can go on with their day, but it does not HEAL them. 
Quarantine has been a dark cloud raining on an optimistic time. I find myself struggling to do much at all, but am lucky to have music, technology, and the friends I'm close to. These three things give me the chance to learn more about music production and about what kind of music I want to make. Trying to expand my mind and my practice, hopefully this is a step in the right direction. These are instrumentals I've been messing with lately, they are not nearly done, but I've been feeling antsy and wanted to share! If you have any notes, constructive criticism, or positive things to say I'd love to hear them! I want to make music for myself, but I want to know if what I make resonates with others.
I hope that once these songs are complete, they will represent to me the end of this darkness and the beginning of newly found optimism.

Do I continue working on these songs that represent a time I do not want to attach myself to? Or do I move on and create what is currently on my mind?
Either way, I'm going to leave these here. It may help me release the thoughts, feelings, and events that no longer serve me.
Thanks for being here,
