No A.I. – No Loops – No Presets We are creatures of memory. Memory is a massive part of being human. Happiness, suffering... all tied to memory. Memory anchors us in our pasts. Memory defines our present and future. While we spend a lot of time thinking of the past and the future - so … Continue reading The Past Becomes Present Again

Some Sought Sanctuary: Some Found It
Some Sought Sanctuary: Some Found It is an odd title, especially for a modern record. The idea behind the music is equally different from the typical. The record looks at the passage from death to the afterlife. We start at the moment of death and move through a few states before crossing to the next … Continue reading Some Sought Sanctuary: Some Found It

Elegantly Drifting Apart
The album started with the working title of "Fragmented Documents" a reference to an earlier album I felt this material may have had an affinity with. When I showed the new title and cover art to my partner she asked if the title was about us. Oh sad face. No. It is about accepting that … Continue reading Elegantly Drifting Apart
Measured Spaces II
if you get value from my music, please be sure to return it bysupporting me with a purchase at Bandcamp Measured Spaces II clearly indicates a similarly named album. This was one of those albums that cleverly disguised its story until the very last moment. Most of the pieces were written with no names which … Continue reading Measured Spaces II

Initially, I thought of each track being a putting together of things that don't belong, Zen Monks drinking alcopops, etc. Over time tho I felt that was a bit thin and let the track ideas broaden somewhat. … Continue reading Blurred Hands

The progression of tracks is deliberately set to help allow for a more restful state. Perhaps don't operate machinery - I only say that to cover myself as in no … Continue reading Heart at Sea

Pixel Deep Plays
Everything on a computer is pixel deep. There is nothing but our imagination beneath the pixels we see. Some people say that is a reason to consider music made on computers non-music. Even some musicians think that software instruments are not as real as those made of wood and tin (with circuits inside). I don't … Continue reading Pixel Deep Plays
Documemted Fragments – synthesizer dreams
- Life is made of fragments. Later we try to organize them into some sort of sense. Sometimes this organization is done consciously, but often it is done in REM sleep - or dreams. To me making a record is very much a record of the time I was working (to borrow from Jackson Browne). … Continue reading Documemted Fragments – synthesizer dreams
