My Music

Despite lacking any training (or real talent) I like to dabble with hardware synths, samplers and effects units. You can listen to my jams on my YouTube channel (with pixel art lo-fi video!) or download mp3 audio files below.

Being largely improvisational my jams are recorded more or less live and with very little post-processing. I prefer to involve computers as little as possible in the creative process.
