Built this track with a few other performers in mind so i purposely left a lot of "space" in track for them to bring the flava. ;) the idea for the track was to design something that had room for Viola, and Digeridoo as well as a few different rappers doing a live cypher to.

Are Friends Electric

Natural Beauty might be a fitting title for the cover art of this EP (a beautifully surreal, extremely closeup photograph of a moth's wing), but in reality is a sarcastic remark about the focus of this collection of songs: the ugliness of human nature. 

A completely solo work, all done under the self-imposed surveillance of a video stream live for anyone to watch (youtube.hikikomorimusic.com), Natural Beauty is as much an ode to basement internet life as it is modern social commentary. 

With 80's keyboards that live comfortably next to jangly indie rock guitars, and current day electronic sounds paired with often falsetto vocals that aren't afraid to sing over a mathy beat once in a while: this EP has a sound that both seeks the future and the past at once. Radiohead is the obvious influence, but there's definitely some Postal Service, Queens of the Stone Age, and subtle various classic rock references mixed in as well. 

Hikikomori began in 2010 as a solo side project for me for songs that didn't quite meet up with what Withershins was about. After moving halfway across the country and away from my bandmates in Withershins, it became my primary focus. My intention is to stay true to the concept of hikikomori as much as possible by way of online shows, live streams, and being as much of a shut-in as I can while still being a functioning music project.

I would like to thank everyone who's ever brought positive energy towards me and my artistic endeavors, but above all else I'd like to thank my amazing wife Erin for her infinite wisdom, kindness, and patience. You make every day beautiful for me and my adoration for you is ever-growing. The bond we share is the most treasured part of my life: I love you.
