Thanks for listening to my album, "Love ZZZV"! This opening track is still my favourite of the nine because it features nothing I'd call a mistake and still leaves me in wonder just as to how I wrote it. The extended, classic tracker-style soloing…

Written on a temporary absence from the internet, this is me retreating into my shell (and taking half damage.)

My re-imagining of a piece by kjwise as a Harold Budd/Brian Eno-ish collaboration.

Inspired by a trip to Japan during which I needed to obtain another towel for my friend Dave so he could take a shower. All I really knew how to ask of the hotel staff was "Where is the bathroom?" Hilarity ensued.

Dreamy instrumental with piano, middle eastern percussion, and deep bass. Inspired by William Orbit.

A lonely, slow, tune... with a forlorn and sometimes tense distorted guitar (actually my bass). Good music to listen to as you zone out and stare into space.

Melodic, peaceful, and trance-inducing instrumental. Used a synth clav as the underlying thematic instrument, then layered a few other things on top. The "guitar" counter-melody at the end is me playing a bass in the upper registers.

Written and performed quickly (approx 2 hours) during a "dark day". This is not a political song but rather a song about the "helpless feeling" during the current strange economic times. When I used to get down I'd put on an old song I loved…
