"Coastlines" is now available for streaming everywhere. Spotify, Youtube, Apple, and the rest. Combining inspiration from vintage electronic artists like Boards of Canada, Mouse on Mars, plus modern artists like Black Moth Super Rainbow, Fourtet, etc, I hope you enjoy this downtempo-tinged album.

Remember when everyone got paper shredders to prevent thieves from *digging thru trash* to steal identities?
And then all our identities were stolen via huge corporate data catalogs leaking them anyway?
Good times.

I should ask AI to route my audio, mixer, and USB cables. Surely it won't do a terrible job, right? 🤣

@thousandgardens.bsky.social contacted me this week through my "Submit a song" page on my website and he sent me a link to his album Coastlines. He has some really incredible songs; I dig everything I've heard so far. Everyone needs to hear his work. Thank you for contacting me! I'm forever a fan!

For those of you who follow me, thank you. My third album, Coastlines, is available on Bandcamp now and should be available to stream in your local area when you wake up.
It has been a joy to create this work, and I have been enjoying it regularly since it wrapped up. 👇

Falling Leaves, the last single before the album drops next week, is out today. A slower, melodic song that plays between different instruments as it goes. Enjoy!

I don't only make sad songs, i also make upbeat or even danceable songs. "Time's Up" has flavors of deep and disco house, and I'm glad I was able to pay homage while still bringing something fresh.
It's streaming everywhere early; here's one link:

"Bread and Circus" started up during a night I was baking, and as the song grew, the idea of how much we are losing today while so many simply plow ahead struck me as so sad.

"Saskatchewan" is a short, dynamic song, clearly in the style of Boards of Canada and one thing I always have liked about BoC is that there is an underlying menace in so many of their songs. Not violence, but an unknowable thing.

"A Combination of Various Factors" is the first full song off Coastlines, and combines a driving rhythm, a melodic bassline, flowing arpeggios, a soaring distant melody and a gritty interruption.

Honestly so happy that at the halfway point, the Kickstarter for CD & vinyl of Coastlines is 25% funded. It's not much, but knowing there are people out there who are interested in having actual physical copies of my music in their home is so fulfilling.
