I have been releasing solo instrumental projects for years, perfecting my sound and collaborating with artists I respect along the way. In an effort to expand my listenership and reach more people, I produced this new album of work with a focus on sourcing my own collection of sounds and using more experimental sounds to create a modern and vintage sound at the same time. I like leaving here imperfections of dust and background noises in the mix to add layers of sound that seem like accidents but are wholly intentional, and can be a welcome distraction whether you are trying to wake up on your morning commute or just trying to get home to recharge at the end of the day.
