"Bedroom Beat"

The last track off Pillow Talk. It seemed only fitting to make this last one with .chelle while we were in Portland this winter, before parting ways for our own individual adventures. I thought about using footage I shot in portland to pair with it, but ended up deciding against it. The song feels like home to me, and so I used shots from 2 places that make me feel that way. The trees are at the park across the street from where I grew up in Maryland. Nolte Park, where I spent most of my childhood on the swings. I'm writing this post from my childhood home so I can schedule it before heading to Cabrum Portugal, where the fire scene was shot last year. I'll be there for at least a month, mostly off grid in the forest. Hopefully returning with more sounds, more video, and a quieter mind.

If you haven't listened to the EP, it's available exclusively on my website. The link is in my b1o. Everything is free to stream or download. Although it's not necessary to listen, I encourage everyone to support my music endeavors by signing up for the mailing list. My goal is to shift as much as possible from reliance on platforms like this one. Let's go back to owning our music, and to having it play more than just a utilitarian role in our lives.

Ok. That's all. TTFN

As always,
Thank you for listening

The first track off my Pillow Talk EP, "Hey..." is an invitation. A welcoming in.

Tonight I'm hopping on a plane to head back to Cabrum, Portugal where I shot this last year, to spend some much-needed time in the forest. More shorts to come, but in the meantime you can find the full release and videos for each song on my website (link in b1o). Everything is free to stream or dl.

As always,
Thank you for listening

Today's moment of meditation is from a snowy sunrise at Crater Lake. There's something about this place that has always felt quieting to me. Grounding. Soothing. Can a place be gentle? Or is that something we just project onto it?

Todays meditation is from Mirleft, a little beach town in Morocco where I lived for a few weeks last spring. One of my favorite things about staying there was watching the sunset from this balcony at

A little ambient meditation for today. Remember to be gentle with yourself and others.

January beat challenge day 5. Unfortunately this will be the last one for now as I have too much on my plate with my coming move to be able to enjoy these the way I want. That being said it's a treat to have gotten to make this one with my bois and
