about

Basically all these songs were ideas left to languish on various hard drives and in various folders over the years.
A few songs were merely song doodles, or messarounds--simple musical sketches born from late night inspiration.
Others were tracks created for a project that went south. The project never finished, these tracks were repurposed and rebuilt with new ideas.

None of these were ever intended for a serious release, but several factors warranted a return to tinker with these tracks.. Sometimes it was merely curiosity, and others it would be an idea that gets stuck in the mind until it sees release as a recorded thing..

Sometimes it's just a good day to "clean house" and let these tracks see the light of day.

This isn't simply a "solo" project. This is a concept of artistic expression. Sometimes that may include guests. Sometimes that may include a live performance. Sometimes it may just be a late night messaround.

Either way I hope this excerpt of personal brain candy and sonic chocobliss will hit someone else's brain cells and inspire some mental imagery.. There's plenty where this came from.

Sometimes an ambient project, sometimes a rock band, sometimes it's just there to set a mood. No one really knows why.
