"On Tide Pools he ramps up to the level of his labelmates, both in its progginess and in the way it seems a little more computerized than his earlier works, with MIDI playing a bigger role."

My new LP reviewed in The Wire!
“A masterwork of synthesizer programming and sound design, Tide Pools is an impressive and absorbing evocation of our natural world and its countless organisms moving in concert and chaos.”

🎧 Daryl Groetsch - Blotted (2025)
Long form darker drone. I listened to about a half hour of this. It’s a soothing deep drone in constant slow movement.
I like it. If you’re a fan of drones - give it a try.

New album today. Blotted consists of a low, undulating synthesizer tone that has been honed to the perfect gauzy texture to assist in blotting out the world. Designed and tested for sleep.

I love the music in The White Lotus. Always something surprising and primal. And it’s layered on almost every scene! The best music on a TV show I can remember. I wish I could write music like that.

I recently listened to an interview with Dwight Yoakam. I don't know his music but he mentioned he checks his mixes on a JBL Clip bluetooth speaker. I tried it, it works. It's a great representation of the way many people will actually hear your music, so if it sounds good there... Thanks Dwight.
