2026 . 09 . 10 . 09:49 Oh. It has been 10 years or so since I redid this website. I should probably do that. That's not why I'm here today, though. Like a previous post said, shit is waking back up. Two projects I've been working on off and on over the years (literally decades) ... The River of Piss and God is Void... They're finally coming to life. A previous attempt at The River of Piss ended in a hard drive death, losing months of work save for a demo export I was listening to and filling up papers with what I wanted to add substract and change. That turned into The Death of it All. Now I'm to the point with the current attempt that if I died right now, the demo version I'm sitting on would be a proud piece of work to put out there. But I still plan to spend the next 3 weeks working on more mastering, adding and subtracting layers, editing, cutting and trimming stuff, more mastering, adding and removing more layers, but the overall track list I believe is exactly where it will be in the end. Save for the polish and polish, with the polish. And some polish.
There's a chance Fleet of Pigs will be replaced with a modern version of Fighting The Current. Maybe. That song was never finished and jesus christ I want to get it there. I've redone it a few times since then, but never released it because it wasn't there yet. Vocals on this are AI. I was super stressed about the idea but a close friend pointed out, the vast majority of everything I've done, overall, has been punched into sequencers and programmed. Even with some layers recorded live, most of it is just programmed. Even if I used my own samples a lot, after that most of it is still samples from packs, edited, distorted, redone, etc. But it's not like I've ever been skilled enough like DubFX to just throw shit into a looper live and make amazing shit on the fly. And I've spent literally hundreds of hours working with people and doing auditions in 3 different states, trying to find a vocalist who wants to work with me and this content. Never happened. So here we are. I'm not sorry. The lyrics are what I've written and rewritten and though about and rewritten and rewritten over the literal decades. It came real, real easy. Like your mom. And often. That being said, the whole process the last couple years has been profound. So much over the last 30 years or so finally coming together. I hope it doesn't disappoint.
Also speaking of AI, the hate for it does deeply entertains me. Go fuck yourselves. It's a tool, like anything else. Grow the fuck up.
take care.
2025 . 09 . 27 . 00:22 When I edited it and republished it, I added a verbal description of why it was censored to the beginning. I also renamed the release and made this the cover. I am not sorry. Don't fucking censor people. It's marked explicit anyway. That's more than enough.
2025 . 09 . 26 . 08:01 This shit pisses me off.
2025 . 09 . 25 . 09:25 Shit is awake.

2017 . 10 . 22 . 17:05 Pre-Purchase Discontinued I would rather people support me through bandcamp subscriptions. This will accomplish the same thing as a preorder does for Infinite Machine - but not only that, it will give old content and bandcamp exclusives, as well as all future albums as the subscription continues. There is so much completed in folders (as email recipients know) that at least one album will be done this year, regardless of what it turns out to be. Next year I'm sure two to four will get done. There's so much stuff, as more and more gets cut to other projects, others just get left behind. As those build up they'll make up new ZERO releases.
2017 . 07 . 17 . 17:17 Progress is being made on Infinite Machine. It still may be several months, maybe even years, before it is completed. There is so much sitting around in folders, though, I have made it available for pre-purchase. I will be sending goodies periodically to those who have pre-purchased it.
Note: for all who wanted decals who have yet to order them - there are plenty left.
2017 . 05 . 05 . 19:25 My original model for distributing Symphony of Noise was to give it away for free - accept donations - and sell merch (as well as physical copies.) I figured, it would give people a chance to hear it one way or another. Also, if people fell in love with it, they could show support by buying the music digitally or physically. Since then, I have been through various periods of serious financial hardships. I'm not doing great right now, but am more comfortable than I was several years ago. At that time, I took the free music down and put various methods of listening out there (which make me money.) One of which is my favorite, Spotify. They are all still available there. Watching what Run The Jewels has done, it makes me happy. They do what I wanted to do. Though, both guys had a following before they started this and have done amazingly well - they have the same idea. And that is the correct idea, I believe. So, today I posted all my original work again for free. Also, a link exists if people want to go throw money at me through Bandcamp. Currently no demand exists for physical copies, and little demand exists through bandcamp. But either way, I think it's the right thing to do. With Love,
