about

At the beginning of 2019, I set out to try posting casual tracks on a weekly basis, to keep myself active, share a bit of what's cooking up behind the scenes, and to challenge myself to get back in to a productive groove for the year.
Not long into my project, it became apparent to me that this endeavor had somewhat doubled as a journal for me in many ways. As each weeks beat often reflected much of the feelings I was going through on a personal level at that time of creation.
12 months, 52 tracks, and a whirlwind of emotions and experiences later, here it is.
