about:

I don't really remember how this all started. It could have been a dream... but probably not. The goal itself was always to achieve dream states, whether that be through long ambient drones, disjointed noise, dark ambience or some confused pop song.

I'm always trying things out. This is not experimental, its just ideas thrown together. Hopefully you'll like them, if not, no worries, we're human, I try to understand that.

At this point I don't know where this is all going. Though its been an interesting journey. I hope to continue to record, and i hope it keeps changing and progressing, for better or worse.

I have a new album out. It's called "What have I done". I must note that this was recorded way back in 2004, and I also must note all my equipment was broken at the time causing this to be a very difficult recording. I wanted to make a full pop album. Something that was listenable from beginning to end, and repeat. I based this album off the beautiful yet sad song "Tragedy" by Thomas Wayne. This album starts off very disjointed and random, but the sounds soon blossom into full songs, which have a tendency to fall apart and then suddenly change. As always the tracks are packed full of sounds, and silence is only used for tension.

I wish you well
