There have never been moments in my life more spiritually freeing than watching the sun set in the cool autumn air. I remember so many times when I was frustrated, or sad, or just feeling bad that I would spend time out in the forest near my neighborhood, sit on this massive pile of dirt, and just let the last evening lights fade. So, as my return to piano music, I decided to capture that feeling as best as I could muster.

Sundown

A dreamy music box song that floats between classical writing and gentle repeating phrases. It was made to capture the gentle exploration of the small tidepools on a quiet morning.

Memory Ocean

The Tidepool Lullaby

Shoreline is the closing track to the Memory Ocean meditation EP. This EP was an exploration of harmony that could be both interesting but altogether soothing. Like the other tracks of the EP, Shoreline makes use of the mathematics of the harmonic series in order to find sounds that would please the listener.

This song was written one night as I was writing a track for both my meditation and sleep purposes. Memory Ocean is the Title track of the EP and was featured on the Spotify editorial playlist 'Ayurveda Yoga' in 2021.

Estuary is the opening track to the Memory Ocean meditation EP it was actually called this because of the fact the melody for this song started off as one note and then branches off in several directions that intertwine and occasionally lead back into each other.

Brine was actually created as counterbalance to the rest of the EP: Memory Ocean mainly comprised of songs that felt "cold" in my opinion. It makes sense in terms of the ocean, but I wanted to capture some of the warmer tones that come when you imagine the ocean.

in any place no matter how vast, there are spaces that make one feel safe and protected. Perhaps in the arms of a loved one? Aphrodite's Garden, as opposed to the rest of the EP was intended to bring a smile, and a feeling of loving protection.

Welcome to a gentle world from my past. A World Alone is a relaxing beat comprised of a drumkit, piano, koto, synthesized bells, and ambient noises to create an atmosphere all its own. 

It was written with the memories of a lonely boy. With nobody he was close to, he threw himself into the art of creation. As he reminisced on this lonelier time, a new song was born from one of his oldest melodies. This song was his all those years ago, and it is given a new life and identity now that the loneliness has faded.

It's my first move into the Lo-Fi genre. Wish me luck!

A World Alone

Avenoir features a cold, reflective atmosphere backed by an deep bass and a nice beat.
Avenoir is a wish for the past. An acknowledgement that one cannot see forward in life in the same way one looks to the past. you cannot go back to the past. Only reminisce. 

I've been having way too much fun creating more and more music. I'm excited to keep sharing what I learn with you guys as time goes on.

As usual, SoundCloud receives the song ahead of the official release

Avenoir

Golden Hour is a warm track for meditation and yoga composed of gentle, beautiful synths and chimes for a lovely and comforting experience.

I was home from work for a while, and used that time to rediscover myself and was so happy that I found myself writing this song.
