Under Dim Self, nearly a year in the making, is a short, stark, dark, concise collection of songs filled with curses, laments & memories. I wrote, executed and recorded everything myself. Took quite a while, but I'm very pleased with it.

In the upcoming weeks, Under Dim Self will be available as a high quality digital download (at a very reasonable price) from all the major outlets (iTunes, eMusic, Zune, Rhapsody, etc.). Soon thereafter, it'll be available for streaming on Spotify as well. Amazon's upcoming On Demand service will even allow you to order a custom physical copy, but that's a little ways down the road.

Enjoy!

As of today, I've lost hosting for many of my releases that were available online via Amie Street. Amie Street is closing up shop on Sept. 22, and their site is pretty down already . . . so there's TONS of my music that you won't be able to link to from the discography.

I'm updating the website to reflect this change and am looking for other digital options for hosting the music. In the meantime, if you are interested in any of it, and can't link out to it from here, please write me (or any email provided in the discography) and I can make you a copy or get the files to you.

For the past few weeks, I've been working with a new Moog E1 guitar. If you're not familiar with the Moog guitar, use the link for more info. I think it's the first true innovation on the electric guitar, and I am happy to be working with such an amazing instrument.

Check out the Gallery for videos of me playing the guitar, and the Works section for a link to a collection of recordings using the instrument.

I played guitar on this release by my friends in Reverse Engineer. Listen and download with the link! Also, check out Tidal, the other release from this year that I played on with them.

A collection of improvisations on the Moog E1 guitar.

Two free tracks by a free-improv-noise-doom trio called The Hemogoblins that I play guitar and "sing" with. These are two long improvisations recorded in September of last year at The Bottletree and Green Cup Books in Birmingham, AL.

I've also added our first full-length recording from 2000. You can download this one for free as well.

It's pretty intense stuff, and not for the squeamish . . . but, hey . . . it's free!

You can listen or download or leave nasty vibes all over the internet or all three or whatever.

Enjoy,

Some new tracks with some of my guitar work are now online.

I'm on 7 tracks on Switch 3, which was assembled by my friend Jeff Rackley from Atlanta, GA. All the guitar work was taken from source material that I sent him a good long while ago. It's amazing, but the incredible musical interplay that you'll hear never actually happened (ala' Zappa).

You can check the track listings on the posted cover design to see which tracks feature my guitar, but the entire collection is simply amazing. The CD should be available online very soon. I'll keep you posted on that. For now, hit the link and give it a listen!
