Musical Works (Legacy)
My interest is music has faded -- these are all legacy projects. Regardless of project, these compositions largely focus on genre-bending and experimental composition / production. All material is free to stream and download. If you'd like to donate a few bucks, the Bandcamp accounts all allow "pay what you want" for the releases.
Echo Harvest (2014-2016) is a solo art rock experiment that blends elements of garage, industrial, indie, metal, spoken word, progressive and art rock with janky production and excessive compression.

Dedicated to Otherworldly Snakes (2010) dips a solitary toe into the waters of experimental noise-rock, utilizing many sloppy inclusions of vintage synthesizers, drones and sound generators. Drum machines are unsnapped to time, and the entire shambling mechanism comes together to form a sonic quilt that is all stitch and no polish.

Decline Of Day / Meet The Mountain (1998 - 2011) is a percussion-driven, conceptual electronic project that spanned over a dozen years and several locales. Albums range from forays into surrealism and psychedelia to genre-bending compositions, DIY instrumentation, collaborations, re-visitation and re-purposing of cliche (going after that "you made this in [software]" sound). An attempt to capture what it is rather as a way to preserve the time it was made in. Production often involved recording and mixing in extreme or haphazard conditions, such as at high volumes from one incompetent source to another, complete with compression artifacts, cobbled together gear, etc.

The Negative and The Uninspired (2006) is a one-off collaboration with musician / composer Robert Hofmann. Recorded in Würzburg Germany in 2006, this record mixed spoken word, progressive rock, experimental electronic music, jazz and improvisation.
