Have a listen to my album "Curiosities Of Outsider Art" (Sept 2025). Quirky and interesting tunes.
Thank you for listening!

I try to write with rich lyrical details and self-deprecating humor about the human condition. Plus, that unique Shade Structure sound!  It sounds best with headphones. Thanks for any comments, reposts or likes.

Does anyone still give credit to "the universe" for orchestrating blessings in their lives? I have known many people that will talk about the universe as if it is a living entity that bestows fortune and divine appointments into their lives. The Torah of YHVH Elohim has predicted this behavior for well over five thousand years. And even before the earth was created the Creator YHVH knew how every "wise" person would think.

If you give credit to the universe for the manifestation of fortune and grace in your life, then in a roundabout way you know He is real. So cut to the chase:

"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things."

Romans 1:20-23

Dear listener, Feel free to leave comments and I'll try to reply.

I've been making music for around 16 years now but because of the wonderfully generous community that is SC, I have learned so much in a short time. I look forward to learning even more by collaborating. 
I suppose my strengths are in lyric-writing and singing. I feel fortunate to have been able to work with some stunning compositions by some very talented SCers.

My very best to you, Mark

Some links to recent Continental Collision streaming sites, etc are available below:

My music is born from simple tools: free synth and drum machine apps on mobile phones, free or low-cost software on PC. I chose this path to demonstrate that you don't need huge budgets or high-tech studios to create quality sound: all you need is an ear, passion, and a desire to experiment. My quest is to give voice to the imagination with tools accessible to everyone, transforming limitations into possibilities. Because music belongs to those who dare, not those who spend.
