MUSIC

A FLOWERS JOURNEY

My third Album, released August 15, 2020, and still one of my favourites. Despite its many rough edges it is the first Album where I managed to capture the vibe and story I was aiming for, it was a big leap forward in my musical abilities.

While still overly reliant on loops in some places and despite some shy mixing, the compositions are lush and intricate and have an energy and flow previous efforts didn't quite achieve. My favourite by far is "Flow Away" I find it to have an effortless playfulnesses about it.

The whole album still has a slightly amateurish quality to it, but unlike my now unavailable Album "Time Travel" it doesn't try embarrassingly hard. But enough talk, give it a listen yourself here!

THE FOLDED CITY

My second Album, released December 18, 2020, was an attempt to break free from loops and atmosphere in search of catchy melodies and song structure. The result is very messy and in some places quite stiff but I almost managed to create an intentional mood in some of the songs.

Some songs way overstay their welcome, "The Disco of Decadent Flamingos" does not need to last almost six and a half minutes. Other efforts I find to hold up, however, "Emergency murder" is a piece I still enjoy quite a bit, and "A Sandwich for the Boss" is still very fun to me, mostly because I imagine an overly dramatic sandwich making sequence when I listen to it.

I still appreciate the album, mostly because it gave me a lot of tools for later Albums. You can listen to it here.

THE NUMBERS MAFIA

My first Album, released August 15, 2020. After the world and my life ground to a halt in early 2020 I found myself feeling quite bored, next to other emotions, and decided to install the free trial of Ableton Live.

The resulting music is simplistic, repetitive, barren and amateurish and I still like it quite a bit. It gave me a new hobby and served as the gateway to explore my musical taste, and still serves the story I tried to tell quite well. It has a unique gloomy mood only a first effort can have that I hope to recapture one day.
