about

Recently I've been inspired by local noise shows put on by Santa Fe Noise Ordinance. While exploring the overlap between noise music and free jazz I solidified some of the songs into an album. The end result is way more experimental, industrial, jazzy and leans heavily towards dissonance and improvisation. Enjoy!
