"You can play a shoestring if you're sincere" - John Coltrane

Music spontaneously arrived at by Joe Makuch - Piano, and myself on guitar.

Sincerity

Idiotsyncrasy is trying everything to escape from my typical moves (phrases, harmony, structure) and still failing miserably. According to Einstein, insanity Is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. While I can certainly co-miserate with Albert's claim, I think creative idiocy is franctically trying to do something else all the time and ending up with the same result. There, I said it :)

Recorded with Chuwi of Left Lane Studios in Waterbury, CT.
Produced by Johnny Salz and CTown Beats. The two producers teamed up and created a super dreamy sound to tie right into a story of America by Alyssa Hughes. 

Cover Art featuring "The A.I.D. Jacket" piece by Joshua Peruza (JP)for Aleph Kin. View more of his line here: www.alephkin.com  //
JP created the piece in response to the killing of Mike Brown and used this code to best describe this piece:

"THE UNITED STATES FLAG CODE 
Title 4, Chapter 1

§ 8(a)The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property."

Piano Etude D Pedal "pretty"

the opener

Recently we were forced to recognize fragility in a number of ways. Our ecosystem, our health and life, relationships, our job security, our democracy are among the things that were proven to be more fragile than we normally perceived them to be. There are lessons to be learned.
This track is experimental in at least two dimensions. It does not have a chord progression but it stays more of less within the C# scale and approaches cadences in a less determined, fragile way. Mastering of the track is an attempt to create different experiences when it is listened quietly or loud. I suggest to test both.
