On the summer solstice, I have decided to release my first album in over 4 years. Outside of the time it takes to record, mix and master everything, coupled with crippling perfectionism, I never found a good time during the last few years to complete and release this music. Originally, I intended to call the album "They Come in Peace" but due to the exclusion of some songs that are not complete, a more apt title was chosen. I also procrastinated on designing a cover art that would fit the motif, which I ended up scrapping in favor of a picture that was recently taken at a music festival in the Mojave Desert.
The first track is an homage to the sci-fi television shows that continue to inspire my work. "They Come in Peace" is an instrumental intro meant to be listened to in conjuction with the subsequent track "Closure", a song written about a breakup that ended up happening months after the song was written and recorded. 
Wait Forever is my attempt at a catchy pop tune coming in at just under 3 minutes. It presents hope of a rebirth following the changes of "Closure".
Finally, "The Ubiquity of Obsolescence" starts as a film/video game score and evolves to take on the tenebrescent qualities of a synth voyage down a deep cavern and then back up the the light of the surface. 
"Con(sole)quently" is a remix of a film score that I composed a year ago, sped up and enhanced for your pleasure.
It means a lot to me that you have chosen to listen to this album, I hope you enjoy hearing it as much as I enjoyed making it.

Consequently (from The Motion Picture "Final Talks")

Sometimes theres a man who is just right for his time and place. He fits right in there. Many years ago, there came visitors from distant worlds, faraway lands who showed us how to achieve our full potential. This would not be a single act but a constant improvement, a perpetual motion towards the next stage, whatever that may be.
