All that stands between now and then is time.
Between Here & the Future is a set of five minimal pieces themed: Time and How We Feel It. The form is Ambient or program music, similar to how Brian Eno presented the idea in his Ambient Series of albums.

Tracks and Technicalities
- Standing Here & Now – where everything starts
- Intervals Between – the core of time is the difference between here and there, then and now
- Progression of Existence – is how we feel time
- Polychronologic Instantiation – an absurdity based on the creation of particles in rendering software, where one thing can be created at many different time points at once
- Into The Future – is all time ever does, ever can do
- Time Decay – time doesn’t decay, but there is a term in investing where time causes the value of a thing to decay over time
As always, the tools list is really minimal. Reason 13: using mostly stock devices like Europa, Thor, etc. Cover art made in Inkscape, video in DaVinci Resolve. Everything, including artwork made by hand.
The album started from a bit of a joke, an irony, or something like that. I saw a takedown of those pretend musicians who go on and on about gear, but get horribly postal on anyone who dares not be like them; particularly people who do real work (as opposed to dreary over-limited bloop ‘n’ drone gear-workouts to justify all the toys). The irony was that I realized the piece I made was really nice, not the thing I was parodying at all. I decided to make more.
