Music
Ambient, lo-fi, and instrumental guitar. Sound as texture — I make music that pairs well with late-night coding.
Sound as Texture
I make ambient and lo-fi music — the kind of sound that sits in the background, creating atmosphere without demanding attention. Lots of reverb, slow chord progressions, tape hiss, and field recordings.
The Setup
- Fender Jazzmaster into a Roland JC-40
- Chase Bliss Mood for granular micro-looping
- Strymon BigSky for the endless reverb washes
- Ableton Live for arranging and mixing in ambient textures
Process
Most pieces start with a simple guitar loop — a four-bar phrase played clean. That loop goes through the Mood pedal, which chops it into grains and rearranges them into something unpredictable. Two or three layers of this, plus some field recordings (rain, train stations, cafe ambience), and the piece takes shape.
Listen
I upload sketches and finished pieces to SoundCloud. They're not polished — deliberate imperfections are part of the texture. If a piece has tape hiss, a slightly out-of-tune string, or a chair creak in the background, I leave it in.
