This album isn't for everyone.
It's twisted, timeless and quiet. I guess in New York City where I live, it can be a struggle to get quiet. I wanted to write an album that you'd play low in the middle of the night when you've woken up and don't want to wake anyone else in the house. When you are awake and alone in the dark, that's when things -  you - feel most potent. It's part of the personal odyssey - facing yourself in that stillness, reflecting in that quietness.

So it was the time and how the light of that time was hitting me - it reflected through me and what shone through the other side was a very specific color. What that color is, is up to you, to me - to whomever is listening. As I was writing and recording these songs, I was aware that this was all a very specific moment in time, and that this time would also pass. The desire to freeze it was so strong, I wanted to savor it forever. So there was an  elation to capturing it and a sadness anticipating its departure, and you can hear both in the album. There's the sadness - in anticipating endings, while the elation lies in getting to experience it at all. The elation of being alive - too often is found only in reflection.

So, some instructions: put on your headphones in the middle of the night, hit track one and let it play through. Or press track 1, then skip to 11. When that's finished, go back to 6.  Listen and go where your inklings tell you.

Enjoy the odyssey.
