Come My Way

Aka “Love in the Time of Corona”. 
The Wuhan Virus is upon us! Having been home quarantined for a week after returning from a trip to HK, I thought it’d be nice to memorialize the experience in a short song. It even contains a famous Chinese song sample!

You Don’t Mess With the Wuhan

What happens when the party’s over? Seize one last dance! This track balances the mixed emotions of a night well spent with some labored final gyrations.

Last Dance (ft. Nicky V)

Our Pain

Synthesizer of bass heavy genre-benders // Discovering sonic dimensions one track at a time 

Green to the process of songwriting and production, this playful hobby of mine was inspired through the series RHYTHM + FLOW, which elicited the true essence of music: ANYBODY CAN BE AN ARTIST

Wanting to branch out of mere music consumerism, I decided to try my hand at the production of original music. This allows me to fuse my love of poetry while capturing colorful life experiences (and memes). 

Join me in my musical journey as I deliver raw and experimental tunes! Your support is much appreciated!
