The world: built..The lines: blurred…The vinyl: ordered.. Thine own self: true.

MY NEW RECORD was written from January 2024 until September of 2025. Recorded+mixed between November 2025 & March 2026. The whole 9 songs shall be out June 12th. I think I can say this for sure?

FOR SURE in just a couple weeks: The first single, track no. 5, “Belt Of Venus” is the halfway point. A rock n roll offering and a break-through in recognizing what makes you feel bad in order to start feeling really good.

It was attempted as a collaboration with a dear friend who’s inspired me a lot in this life. I’d read the phrase in The Girl With The Golden Eyes by Balzac, and basically got sent on a nerd spiral of metaphorical applications. This Belt Of Venus, and what it means to stand below. We took a break & drifted from the project as new experiences widened the poetics and it just got too personal, morphing until it was finished independently 4 months later.

All the nerding out and some quarter-life-crisis-travels also lended to the birthing of BELOW THE BELT OF Venus: PINK SKIES AND PRIMORDIAL EXCESS last year (Listen to the end to hear some of the demo)…

A music video as well made by recycling footage from the past year because life imitates art baby & we are living. Vibe documentary.

The next single will be track no. 2 called “Rust”. About a moment much earlier on the ~journey~ a shadowy one, when the things that used to make you sad, weak, or merciful take a turn and breed that which fortifies you… It may sound like a defeat but where sadness becomes anger, that anger becomes the power to strike change.

Working on visuals to orchestrate this still… stay tuned for blood.

My new record, and first under my given name, is called THE CAVE. It operates pretty chronologically on a rocky journey through. Whether it starts at rock bottom or back in the womb, I can’t quite say. Leaky walls, bat shrieks and the breezy moan of a sea beyond. There’s a loop of disillusioning and catharsis but each confrontation leads us somewhere more breathable. I’ve been told it’s a bit tortured, but I think it’s gratifying. To me there’s great pleasure built into that liberation. Take it as a companion!

NINE INCH NOIZE!!!!! Seeing Nine Inch Nails back in August was a revelation. I was up at the barricade, watching a master class of bravery and grace. He looked so pleased and peaceful the whole time… A proud king in his kingdom. I’ve been WAITING to hear some of the Boyz Noise remixes since then so I’m getting through some springtime blues reliving all of that. ❤
