Polar Night Vol. 1 is how I imagine a Winter visit to Tromsø, Norway, a city of 75,000 well in the arctic circle. I hope to visit soon, then make Vol. 2 based on my experiences.

While I was waiting for schedules to line up on other projects, I occupied myself in summer with an arctic theme. It was refreshing to exercise different creative muscles with a largely experimental recording. It was a really fun and fast-moving toboggan ride to record. A little harder to mix, but not quite a (polar) bear.

All the “percussion” is electric guitar, and with rare exception the instrumentation is limited to e guitar and Moog Sub 37.

It’s filled with celestial wonders and geological violence. I hope you like it.

I took the cover photo on final decent into Oslo in 2017.

Same Boat

Currently MC, producer, flower, and fire are the four major elements. In the meaning of hip being cool (slang), hop (energy), not confusing with death and gamble.


For as electronic:  the voices of birds.
