"TAC" is a project where I choose a random video game song, transcribe it, and then compose a track inspired by it. This project ran from Jul. 7, 2019 - Dec. 31, 2020.

‘Hold It Close’ is an overview of my journey as a music producer. It touches on the pitfalls, ambitions, and promises that you make to yourself throughout the pursuit of being a musician.

As I began writing with a feeling and an atmosphere, I started thinking, “What am I going through while making this? What do I want to talk about? What do I need to talk about? Who else is affected by the same things?”

This album is my answer to these questions.

Thanks to: my ever-supportive friends, family, mentors, and the one reading this :)

Full greetz can be found in my liner notes.
