NPR World Cafe Interview

Pretty Lights - Athena

Chrysalis

The weirdest track I have made to date. Enjoy.

Groove Armada

Track I made with my brothaaaa Forrest. We made this during summer 2021. One of my personal favorite tracks I've worked on, we are extremely proud of it. Please let us know what you think!

See It Through (ft. Varina)

This track captures a lot of emotions I was going through earlier this year. Burnt out, hopeless, and a bit lost. All I wanted to do was be a hermit and disappear from social settings because I had all of these mental battles with myself. A very groovy and moody track.

Having Fun

Just a simple tribute mash-up for the late and great MF DOOM. Figured it fit nice with this Pretty Lights track. All credit to DOOM and PL for making these sick tracks in the first place! I just married the tracks, that's it, lol. Hope you all enjoy and Happy New Year!
