At this time, I was unemployed, going through a very painful relationship breakdown, and self-medicating. Creating music gave me a purpose and, while my mental health was at an all-time low, I managed to record the music that I was making. 

These tracks were arranged, mixed and recorded in real-time by looping drum machines and live recordings of my various guitars and synths.
