"Welcome to My Brain" is my first solo electronic release.  I have been working to develop a signature sound in the digital realm for around 10 years and I'd like to share what I've come up with thus far. 

This project takes you on a journey through some of the sounds, thoughts and emotions that have been running through my head.

Feel free to like, comment, share and reach out to me directly with any questions or interest in collaboration or bookings.

The third track in this series of releases is paying homage to Halo, Specifically Halo 3 (the best one) and with Halo Infinite's season 2 opening today I feel that it's only proper to release this today.

RIP Sopdaddy, I miss you homie... TPG for life.

Today, in honor of Spike Yee (my best homie and wordsmith) having a performance I decided to upload one of our unreleased songs that we've been sitting on for quite a few years. This is a collaborative effort between myself, Spike and Sinclair from when we first started working together.

May 8th, 2022... a beautiful sunny day that reminded me summer is nearly upon us and soon enough we will be riding to and from our favorite watering holes, visiting friends, traveling for music and enjoying nature!

It's always nice to just come home (wherever that may be)

Track 2 of the 3 day "Sent Gentlemen" run is a song that our lead singer wrote to a female that he was madly in love with that refused to pay him any attention regardless of his valiant efforts to win her over.

She just seemed to like everyone... except for him.

Except for Me

The final track of the 3 day "Sent Gentlemen" run is one of my personal favorites. During this period of time we were a bunch of young men experiencing love and loss for the first times in this world.  I'm glad to have run into these wonderful musicians in my journey through this life. Hoping these tracks find them well!

After all was said and done it didn't matter what she said.

Round 2!! this was the second track in my beat battle against DJ Rockstar.  Almost every sound is some altered version of a Mortal Kombat sample that I molded into a workable piece.  All of the songs in this series were completed in a 48 hour period.  

This one left Rockstar toasty!!

Track 14 of 30 is an intro track that a made a few years back for a performance.  This is a little heavier than my normal sound but I thought it would be fun to step outside my comfort zone.  All of the vocals in this track are taken from various religious speeches. 

you think I'm holding back?

16 of 30 and its time to get into some of my personal favorites!  Today is a bootleg remix of Outkast B.O.B. It seems fitting given the nature of the nations current affairs. Outkast was one of my favorite rap duos growing up so it's nice to pay homage to the group.

I love music, electric revival!

Sticking with yesterdays theme I felt it would be appropriate to pull another remix out of the vault!   Today I'm paying homage to the late, great Aaliyah...  Her voice left this world too soon, may she rest in peace.

Might as well rock the boat.

Finishing up this 3 day run of remixes I decided to finish a bootleg WIP I've had in the vault for a month or 2... This is throwing it back to one of my personal favorite eras of hip hop and rap music with this classic from Mike Jones, Fat Joe and Slim Thug.

You know I'm still ballin' in the mix...

Day 2 of the Spike Yee 3 day run and it seemed relevant to release today's track given the circumstances of our performance this evening.  Tonight we will be performing at a memorial service in honor of one of the best people I have ever met in the music scene Candice McLaughlin. She was such a bright light to be around and was always willing to talk or help in any way she could when you were feeling down. May she rest in bliss.

For her... this is our emotional transfer.

Final day of the Spike Yee run! This track was made a couple years ago around the time we decided to become full time musicians and performers.  We had just gotten both of our personal studios setup and decided to break them in with a new track.  it seems fitting to release this at the end of the run to signify that we are still on the grind.

Gotta keep moving in sequence.

Sticking with the hip hop theme I decided to release an all original track that I wrote, produced, engineered and mastered.  This is one of my very few attempts to work my pen out and actually record it. I'm also proud to say that I was able to spit the entire verse in a single take. 

I got nothin' but love for the game.

This track was a very old idea from when I first started producing in Ableton.  Years later (2019) after a show, while chillin with the team, I was digging around and stumbled across this great set of bones. That night we had completely reworked the whole track, laid 2 verses and a hook.  I decided this was the perfect time to go back over with a remaster and release.

Just sit back and admire, this is the come up.

As we come into the final week I think it calls for the final track in the Mortal Kombat beat battle series.  This was an incredibly fun project to work on and I'm very happy to finally share these with the world.

Start of the last 6 tracks so I decided to use an intro track that I made for a local electronic showcase I put together and performed in called "Lost in Sound". this track features some pretty signature samples that related to me as we float on a giant rock through infinite space and time.  

Some would say we're lost but I think we're just finding ourselves.

Not much to say about this track other than it is straight vibes... At first I felt like there was a lot of open space and have been sitting on it trying to figure out how to finish it when I realized that I like it just the way it is.

Let me write you a symphony and you can dance like a melody.

Today and tomorrow I will be featuring a couple tracks that I did with my homie SiKUM out of Pittsburgh,PA.  He is a classically trained guitar player and phenomenal DJ that I've known for quite a few years after working together at a high end glass gallery.  Occasionally we will schedule a couple days to catch up and get together in the studio.  We usually get around to laying down one full concept.

This one is a classic walk down.

Day 2 of the SiKUM run and this is probably the most thought out concept that we've ever worked on together.  This is also the most recent studio session that we had together and it has still been a couple years.  looking forward to the next one (hopefully next month)

Until then I guess I'll stay in the pocket.

I've been sitting on this beat for a while and I haven't had a chance to get anyone to write something for it.  I figured it would be nice to hear some bars on it, so I decided to cue up one of the goats...

I do this for the culture. Industry is shady, it needs to be taken over.

I know I said that I was going to post an all original mix to wrap up the month but to be completely honest I couldn't get the mix to line up the way I wanted it to... Instead I decided to release a DnB mix to fill the void.  I'll get back around to an all original mix sometime soon.  Until then all of my tracks are uploaded in high quality WAV format and free to download.

Stay tuned and thanks for rockin’ with me!
