As usual, the track titles have nothing to do with the actual music/sounds - I usually just pick something that fits with whatever theme/concept is in my head when it's time to get the cover art together. (This time around, it's power grid failures…

When I used to work third shift at Kinko's, I'd sometimes leave the weather radio on, and the automated voice and cadence (though different now from the one 20+ years ago) still has a comforting tinge of nostalgia. I have a weather radio on my…

At the beginning of February, I tried to learn to use VCV Rack, but never really took the time to learn properly. Instead, I took the couple of patches I managed to create, slowed them down, mashed them up with drums and canned percussion from…

A lot of Johnny Marr chords but then too much keyboard overlay to tell

The music is canned chords and patterns I pulled from EZKeys, then filtered through a plugin (Wires by AudioThing).

Listening back to this one, I was struck by a trio of mental images.
The first was a memory from a flight back from some business trip. The clouds and the angle of the sunlight formed what looked like a blasted landscape over which towered…

I can feel Saturn pull me closer to her
I can't see her rings, but I know she's there
Am I floating
Am I tethered
Are we moving
Are we still here

Every day is drifting further off
I can't get you out

These feelings come and go all of the time
Sometimes they fade
Then I see you again
Oh I've always loved you and him together
I hope that doesn't change
But I can't keep…

My mood keeps changing, something's broken
Maybe it's you
Maybe it's not
I try to replace it, let the clean air in

But then I don't
I'm too scared to

Love
How do you find me
You manifest in dances
And my dreams
Worn
Worn out the windows
I can't see you
Love anymore
Breathe
In then exhale
When I'm around you
I forget
Tear
Down the flyers
If I can't see them
I'll be okay…

I know
What it's like
To suffocate
When there's not any air
Left outside
Watching daylight leave the atmosphere
As long as you're there
I won't need my lungs
Your wind's whistling to my hum
The cold hydrogen, helium
Poisons me

You were in my dream the other night
We talked for a while
We fell in love
Then I got bored, and left the house
Then I came back, and you were out
Things were rocky from that day
We didn't talk to each other so much
I felt so bad for having…

It's been so long
I can't remember

I try not to think about them
I want to float through the clouds on Saturn

This is unfinished and may need to be put to something other than a 12-bar blues, although it was fun to play. The words, blues, and voice don't quite go together but since I committed to writing and recording 5 songs in the month of February…

Great band. My brother and I listened to them on KCRW when driving around LA in 2009. Give your leftover change from the ice cream savings away.

Love Is A Realization

I saw her dancing, like the light on the ocean,
