What is music? What is noise? How much do we gatekeep sound? What's "good" or "worthy" vs "undesireable"?

Medicinal, healing sound spaces are increasingly commodified, increasing gentrified into a luxury experience. But music and sound are our birthrights.

What happens when you embrace all parts of the soundscape into music? When musicality = improvising with traffic.

The birds liked it.

Rather than a gentrification of sound, let's have a democratization of sound.

traffic improv ~ Poplar Park 4/21/23

Live, first take of a song that's been thumping in my head for a year.

The first person who heard it didn't know the subject after that first listen. Which got me wondering — I'd love to know how many listens you need to know the topic of the song.

Don't worry, it's not Bohemian Rhapsody—total track length is under 90 seconds.

Feel free to let me know your number in the comments.

Have you ever had the experience of an iconic song being not-quite for you? This is one of mine.

Zero disrespect to the original artist – I've just always struggled with the lyrics. Years ago, I adjusted some lines and have sung it that way to myself ever since.

Tonight, I got in the full moon, fuck it kinda vibe and did a live recording in my living room. Hope you enjoy and that it encourages you to bust some expectations.
