Space And Other Things - An Epic Sonic Journey Four Years In The Making.
The songs on this record are inspired by my experience and observations during the last four tumultuous years. Each song addresses a topical theme, hence the title “Space And Other Things”. I wrote and recorded this album on a laptop in my garage in Los Angeles and at various project studios to showcase how DIY production has changed the way musicians produce music.
I want to give special thanks to Luke Adams, Chris Chaney, Max Hart, Chase Jackson and Aaron Sterling for recording at their studios. In addition, I want to thank engineer Michael Patterson for dialing in the incredible sound. Each song has a unique flavor with intricate detailed parts that his mix and mastering engineer skills brought to life. And to artist, Kii Arens for his beautiful cover artwork that captures the essence of the music in stunning color.
I am very grateful for the contributions from so many of the talented musicians who appear on this record. The sum of which offers the listener an exciting music experience.
