Poor Boy, Long Ways From Home (Oct. 2025)

Alcool et Drogue

A remix of The Algorithm of Impudence. No words this time. Glitch, distortion, collapse. It’s the sound of a system rotting from the inside. I didn’t make this to fix anything. I made it because I’m tired. Tired of pretending it’s fine. Tired of the noise. My mind’s worn out, and now my body’s sick too. This track is what leaks out when you stop holding it together.

The Decomposition of The Impudence



From the new album 'Welcome Anomaly"
moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/welcome-anomaly

On "Welcome Anomaly" Mood Exhibit returns to electronic sounds with a fierce enthusiasm.
This new album contains some of the boldest and most adventurous electronic music from the mind of ME. - exploring IDM, electro, melodic electronica, and granular experimental, all with an emphasis on detail and evolution.


Mood Exhibit - Utility

Fugue No.1 Op.54

From the horrorerotic sonic theater work: Alice's Adventures In the Underground.

Alice's Adventures In the Underground is based on an idea that actress, model, socialite, and Warhol "It Girl" Edie Sedgwick had to film a version of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Their version would have incorporated Rock n Roll, sex, drugs, and suicide.

This scene details Alice's (Edie's) meeting with the White Rabbit, a figure that is part Andy Warhol, part her own father, and part the doctor who shot her up with drugs and had sex with her.

I see this piece of music and text as a piece of tragedy with some surrealistic black humour sprinkled throughout.

Cover art for my albums has been provided by painter Gerhard Richter and artist, musician, and filmmaker David Lynch.

At the end of 2024, I worked on several re-creation compositions which utilzed sonic elements from pre-existing songs by Brian Eno and David Byrne, Nine Inch Nails, and Grimes, from their albums "My Life in the Bush of Ghosts," Ghosts I-IV," and "Miss Anthropocene, combined with new music by myself and other musicians.

Earlier this year, I collaborated with painter Gottfried Helnwein on a short film called: Epigenetic Trauma Painting No. 1.

Musicians taking part in this project are: Stan Harrison (Talking Heads), Ben Somers (Seal), Jarboe (Swans), Ghazi Barakat (Pharoah Chromium), Rob Burns (David Gilmour), Nicholas Currie (Momus),  Peter Hess (Philip Glass Ensemble), and others.
