A song I made in an hour. Featuring my new echo pedal.

THIS IS A DEMO

This is the page of an old project called Munising.

Munising was a method of separating myself from the prospect of being vulnerable with/genuine in music. I took the name from a town in rural Upper Michigan, because that's how I wanted this to 'live' - as a place or space or moment where I wasn't. That made it easier to take the weight off of making something that held a weighty meaning against me. Wearing music like I wanted to didn't feel comfortable then, so I put a mask on underneath.

I've done a great deal of growing up since then, and through that, I've developed an appreciation for being genuine with my vulnerability. Embracing the fear and discomfort of vulnerability.

I will continue to create, but it will be from me, Ricky. Dance remixes, (hopefully) something that stirs some emotion in you/me. I'd rather it all come from me now. We all deserve to just be. <3

RIP Munising, 2018-2023
