Welcome to 99 minutes of abandoned concepts and tracks created between 2015 and 2025. The majority of it was created between 2015 and 2019 (my children were born in 2020 and 2023). I've been holding onto these tracks for so long, and they've become somewhat of a burden. I spent years tinkering, rearranging, and wishing that I had the time and energy to finish, polish, and release them. Together, they represent hundreds of hours of work and probably a few decibels of hearing loss too. Although these will never be formally released, I'm glad you have a chance to hear them now. It can be frustrating as a producer to have dead end tracks and ideas that you were once excited about, but like any other kind of art, it's best to look unfinished works as time spent learning and having fun. After all, if making music wasn't fun, I wouldn't have started doing it in the first place.

In some of the songs you'll hear, there are earlier renditions of tracks that came out on my third album, A Little Something. There are also incomplete snippets, ideas, short sketches, and even some full tracks. I held a few nearly finished tracks back from this compilation, as I do think they are nearly ready for a release in some way, shape, or form. I also held back a number of unlicensed remixes I made for fun.

You can look at my Soundcloud for earlier Abandoned Concepts compilations dating back to 2008.

I hope you enjoy this and get a chance to listen to A Little Something on a streaming platform of your choosing.
