Preface:

You’d think most of these songs were written in the daylight. 

But, they coalesced in the quiet, motionless hours of the night— while my family slept. While a small wooden wall clock marked the hours. While the moon shone a little brighter than usual. 

I walked. I stared at the wall. I recorded birdsong, and the rain. I discovered new lines on my face. There were broken guitar strings, moving boxes, and tiny pink ballet slippers. I made a new, unlikely friend. I missed my dog. I smelled saltwater and sea-foam. I tinkered and refined, endlessly. I remembered people who are not here anymore. I felt like I needed to do more, and less. I thanked my wife, and held my daughters. I listened to the melodic stylings of Bill Evans and Chet Baker. 

I thought about what it takes to be real.

These tracks are not grand, or clever, or perfect. They just happened. Some feeling, some remembering. Some sentimental, some silly. A melody unearthed from a pile of voice memos.  A worn sticker on a stranger’s water bottle. A film for children. They are of small things, brought into the light. They are bookmarks. They are the dog-eared pages of a weathered paperback, marking a thoughtful passage. They are flower petals pressed between pages of a heavy coloring book, the once vibrant hues nearly faded away.

How much of this will we remember, before the color fades? Before these fragile moments in time are pushed steadily outward, away, replaced, forgotten? 

If this album were a book, you need not read it in order. You can pick up from anywhere. You can leave it open on the floor. 

I made this album to remember.
But maybe, in some way, it remembers you too.

Look Back

Elemental Vol. 3 continues the journey begun in Vol. 1, returning to the meeting point of nature and circuitry where country becomes techno and techno becomes country. The project carries forward the Elemental idea — that music, like weather or landscape, isn’t a metaphor but a living force that moves through us.

The sound remains tactile and porous: guitars still breathe, synths still shimmer, but the pulse runs deeper now, steadier, like groundwater finding its course beneath open fields. The arrangements move between organic drift and machine precision — footstep and kick drum, heartbeat and bassline — tracing a quiet dialogue between wilderness and pattern. It’s not fusion so much as coexistence: a music that sounds both handmade and algorithmic, campfire and circuitry, soil and signal.

“Echoes of the Moonlight” blends deep male vocals with Arabic-inspired techno house and hip-hop fusion.
Pulsing bass drums, desert-shaded rhythms and shimmering synth textures create a hypnotic atmosphere, while the vocals move between calm intensity and rising emotional tension.
The track follows a night journey guided by the echoes of moonlight — a pulse that cuts through stillness and awakens something hidden in the dark.

Arabic house - Echoes of the Moonlight

Mystic Journey

A track about change in real time — the fog, the fear, the release, and the shift that happens before you even understand it.
Atmospheric future garage with deep sub-bass, whispered falsetto vocals, rolling percussion and glitchy vocal chops.
Minimal. Emotional. Heavy in all the right ways.

This one is for anyone standing between who they were… and who they’re becoming.

Changing anyway
