‘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 :)

'I Am Here, Now' is an autobiographical album, where each track is like an entry in a journal. Jason M. Yu performs 10 piano pieces that depict everyday joys, from the beauty of a quiet morning, to his funny dogs, to the magnificent seaside cliffs of Montaña de Oro in California.

I miss messing around with Namco wavetables. Will this mean that I'll get back into Namco-styled covers? Only one could dream. :)
