Retro-futurist indie electronica with distorted synth textures. Inspired by early computer music and late-70s European synth pioneers.

Bespoke music for mass-produced times.

Taskboy Music is a decades old project in which the struggles to translate ineffable moods into rhythm, melody, and harmony using the tools of the day are documented.

No AI is used to create, mix, or master these songs.

Intention:
The sound creates rooms of safetiness and trust, where people can feel, open up and connect. Get comfortable and enjoy the ride, moving freely and expressing whatever is present.
