connecting the dots, plotting the lines
your visage, which i traced in starlight
filled books full of brand new images
does spring ever end in outer space?

happy new year everyone!

in 2021, i graduated in june with a BS in chemistry and soon after began working at my first full-time professional job. clearly, the past five years of undergrad put a strain on my will to continue the music i've been making since middle school, and keeping up with the online communities i've embraced pretty much since then as well.

i've known full-well that even during my years of pseudo-inactivity, music is something that i will return to time and time again as my passion, no matter how often it waxes and wanes.

being 23 now, change is a very frequent part of my life in pretty much all facets i can think of, which is as exciting as it is chaotic. this year, i hope to rely on music to ground me in my personal chaos, as it's been a comfort of mine that i've indulged in since the age of 11. even after straying away, coming back to OpenMPT never feels foreign.

this year i will devote more time to my music endeavors. working a 9-5 makes me realize how valuable my time is; how i need to really block out time to sit down and create amid balancing my work life, social life, and sleep. it's been a challenge so far, but still very manageable, and fun! it's quite rewarding to have it all feel adequately balanced.

new years is probably my favorite holiday, for symbolizing a fresh start which encourages change. the identity of a musician is something i've shied away from in recent years, and i aim to change that this year. so let me hold myself accountable in this statement, and please enjoy this little tune :-) i think i doodled up the main melody for this song sometime in like 2019, so it's been a long time coming!!! (i think i actually started truly composing a song out of it in december though :P)

thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. every little snippet i've posted on twitter, and occasional OHC upload over the past period of general inactivity has been met with excitement and anticipation for more music to come. it truly touches me to see it, and it only motivates me to keep on at it.

every summer, my family and i would travel to an island to visit my surrogate grandparents.

i had this image in my brain of the island being the most perfect place on the planet. but when i returned there years later, i came to realize that such a place had never existed.

the land itself, the nature, was still beautiful, but the inhabitants were corrupting it. it wasn’t the haven that i remembered, except for my surrogate grandparents, who remain the light of the island.

i still love the island, but my idea of it has eroded. nothing is perfect.

this album is a bittersweet ode to a beloved place that has become unfamiliar over time.

dedicated to Judy and Stan.

Tailwind & Impact

God Trembles Under Physics (2009)

i wrote this song in a random one night session a couple months back, basically the only thing i've written since March. recently submitted to the Infloresce snowdrop festival :)

Lyrics

Jimmy's goin to the strip tonight
got a mighty big sack of cash
Gonna win a lot of chips alright
hits the bar to check the exit plan
At the table, yeah, he shoots the moon
got the pit boss sweatin' and the dealer, too
Got a little something up his sleeve
thinks he's in the clear as he goes to leave

alright

End of the line
hand on his shoulder, the swindle is over
"Sir, can you come with me?"

Oh, mister, if you please
Lord knows money doesn't grow on trees
There has to be that we can make this right
without me dying here tonight

Jimmy's leavin on a ship tonight
all his stuff in a duffel bag
At the docks in a shipping crate
pretty sure he checked the front and back
Skipping town, yeah it aint ideal
got the mob pissed off so he's off to Brazil
Makes a run for the luggage rack
but they're waiting outside with a tater sack

End of the line
hand on his shoulder, the swindle is over
"Sir, can you come with me?"

Oh, mister, if you please
Lord knows money doesn't grow on trees
There has to be that we can make this right
without me dying here tonight

Jimmy

So this is a cover of "This Charming Man" by The Smiths done in the style of Super Mario Bros.. I'm planning on doing a video as soon as I can figure out how to work with Flash. The sound effects are only there to help the listener visualize the "game". I'm looking to do other 80s songs in this style as well (with accompanying videos). Enjoy!
