This new track contrasts the light techno feel with the dark sounds of supermassive black hole in the Perseus Cluster.
It's a light and playful tune, if you ignore the screaming of dying worlds from 240 million light years away.

This track was written over two days for the alignment of Drone Day and Towel Day, which overlapped on the same weekend. Performed and recorded live:

This is my first entry to a hardware based electronic music challenge.
I am still exploring the instruments and tools I'm using - and the theme and a time limit was motivating enough to create this!
It was performed and recorded live in a single take.

My first frack of 2025!
Take Me Away is an ambient piece, filled with evolving melodies and rhythms. I hope you enjoy.

It's #ThrowbackThursday, and the 2nd track of 2022: Hide and Sietch.
A Dune inspired track, evoking the feel of the deep desert on Arrakis, in a sub-genre that I call Desert Ambient.

It's a late #ThrowbackTuesday, and the 7th track of 2024: Starnight (Radio Edit). It's is a slowed down track to provide long, slow, and gentle transitions, swells, and movement.

There are no intentional edits - but there is a cut when OBS stopped recording, and I lost about 12 minutes of gold. So I added a brief tour of what was done at the end.
This is a process video, recording my first use of Dawesome's Zyklop synthesizer. I just installed it and set myself a challenge to see what I can create from scratch using only this synth, in ~30 minutes, and recording everything live:

It's #ThrowbackThursday, so here's my 27th track of 2022. Nighttime Reflections evokes the moody introspection of being stuck indoors, with miserable weather outside. Inspired by rainy, icy weather.

A minimalist ambient track, in the style of the pioneers of ambient music. Three synthesizers, playing 5 notes, the magic comes from the interplay of the different delays.
Listen, enjoy, like, share, and subscribe!

ReNew: Dreams of the Hive!
Close your eyes, unwind, and recharge. Let yourself float away into the dreams of the others in the hive, connected through this calm ambient piece.

I tried out a very different workflow for this track - I sketched it out on the Oxi One connected to my iPad, and then moved to my desktop and Bitwig when it was ready. I enjoyed the freedom of this approach, and will do it again!
New hardware, who dis?
I unboxed my Oxi One sequencer, and I'm excited!
I've been working all week on my first track using the Oxi One. It's a lighter, more poppy instrumental track than my usual.

An earlier draft was much drier but it mummified some of my test audience, so I eased back on it a bit :)
It's #ThrowbackThursday, here's my 6th track of 2022: Irulan at Peace (Radio). A Dune inspired track, exploring the few moments of peace that Irulan had on Arrakis.

New! Echoes of Farewell, previously only available on YouTube, is now available on streaming services.
This track has a darker tone, inspired by my own processing of grief, is well suited for those introspective moods.

This Saturday (3PM Pacific) is my first #JAMuary live stream!
Inspired by folks streaming throughout JAMuary, I am aiming to create from scratch an Ambient / Berlin School inspired track.
Tune in to see how my Stepic stacking works, or just to say hi!

It's the first new music weekend of 2024!
I bring to you Dusk Before The Storm: "Rain Ambient", chill vibe, taking you back to the time you were stuck indoors by bad weather but you didn't mind because you had a book and a hot chocolate :)

Coffee roaster in action
Interational coffee day is coming up on Sunday, Oct 1.
Did you know that as well as being a musician, I also roast my own coffee?
Go and buy some local #specialtycoffee so you have it on Sunday!

Many Miles puts you on cruise control on a clear night! This is another multi-Stepic (@devicemeister_) track and makes creative use of @AndrewHuang's new plugin Transit.
The music video adds to the vibe!

Today is the 61st anniversary of JFK's "We Choose To Go To The Moon" speech, that I've always found inspiring & moving.
To mark this historic event, I have released my dance remix of the speech, so now it can be moving in a new way!
