june 2026
today i uploaded my new album to the fan club. first time i’ve shared a body of work in the last 2 years. excited to get it out there, but also a bit scared of the current releas climate. i def go against the grain on many things. no spotify release, uncleared samples, no record label, no short form promo. it’s all the things that everyone tells you that you must do, but it’s all the things that make the music process feel inauthentic to me. in the last 2 years i’ve had a huge realization about music. dance music especially for me has felt the most sacred in person. consuming it online just doesn’t hit the same. consuming it with friends, in a club enviroment feels just right. i want to make music for that enviroment. i want the live show to be the best part. after 15 years of making eletronic music, i think i’m kinda done chasing the views, chasing the followers, etc. i’m just gonna make the best thing i can. the best music, the best live show, the best vinyl, the best t-shirt, etc - i will let people fall into this naturally instead of begging them to online. i will be ok with the idea that my music might not rack up as many plays as everyone elses, i will just be comforted in the fact that i love the thing i made with my whole heart.
how do you feel?
some music i implore you to listen to (not mine)
ECO-TERROR 2006’s “ECO-TERROR 2027 (BASTARDIZED)” (dubstep)
a long awaited second installment of one of the greatest soundcloud uploads i have ever come across. ECO-TERROR 2006 is the alias of electronic music producer “enraile”. who is not only a dear friend, but an artist that i look up to immensely. his take on different electronic music sub-genres always supersedes the ordinary. there is something about his sound design & songwriting that always has me baffled trying to process how it was made. 13 minutes of LOUD dubstep normally would be something that i’d want a break from, but this release has me constantly wanting more as it goes on. there is familiarity in the genre format, but just an entirely fresh take in every other possible aspect. highly reccomend this tune, as well as the original installment.

Orno “Take It Back” (electro-pop)
another long awaited album single from orno! i’ve been witnessing the creation of his album for a few years now and the final form of these songs are just too remarkable. something that feels amazing to be apart of is watching the shift in who orno has become as a person along with the creation of this album. this year, we became next door neighbors not just with each other, but with all of our closest friends. orno has even decided to mix & master this album in our neighborhood, which makes every part of the process feel right at home for me. i’ll always have a unique perspective on this record, and i hope it resonates with you in a special way as well.
this record comes out as part of the “modern art” catalog. a new label from the minds of rishi singh & jaron steele.

Olswel’s’ “gggggggggggetdown” (complextro)
olswel has been a massive inspo to my creation process for the last 2 years. he’s an artist who like me, yearns for a beautiful melody, a wildly catchy drop, and a spongebob sample all in one track. it’s sincere and silly at the same time, which is a hard balance to strike. i got to see olswel perform at a frat house a few nights ago. i stayed up til 1am to watch his set, worth every ounce of lost sleep. if you’re hearing olswel for the first time, i hope you delve deep into his discography because there is truly so much gold to be found.
