1.
beware desire i crave fast cos it makes me scared but here i'm listening pious light, still as stone confessed and clean i'll move like water today i'll take the slow burn stillness ripples in the breeze i'll make myself clean nothing but the earth and sea
2.
sometimes i want to stop moving but in the same vein i know there's no such thing as stillness a thousand years of gestures live inside these walls even the plaster is awake -- she is the mirror the grass is the mirror the trees are the mirror every body buried in this godforsaken building once was the mirror - and there's no room for her in your ornateness only for her mysterious disappearance maybe time unaccounted for does not exist unacknowledged sacred creations state otherwise she is the mirror nature is the mirror is every averted eye is the mirror and every woman away from the sixteen chapels is the mirror -- and she finds stillness and her daughter finds fullness her daughter's daughter's heart is printed on paper over and over her daughter's daughter's daughter sings these words now -- here's to hoping she doesn't have to hide in a way not of her own devices her body won't be here but she'll be the mirror

i was born with my dead brother's body what i did with it was more than a performance they just wanted large sums of money they didn't know how well it fit me you can fight wars cos you look like this you can fuck girls cos you look like this you can steal ships cos you look like this hard track teeth crack like men clean the deck i love women like men
4.
and if i let you in i'm scared you'll phase me out again i heard you try to call my name i think did the words dissolve into your mouth?
5.
reeling in tangled string everything's gonna be okay in the end because you're here like this

about

I made most of these tracks between 20128-2020. I didn't release them because I didn't know what to call them, I couldn't find the right label. I didn't think anyone would wanna listen to something they couldn't neatly label or contain into a genre.

I find it difficult to describe my own work. Maybe it's because it feels like it comes from my body and not my thoughts.

My own conception of genre is very skewed from attending a music conservatory where everything not classical, jazz, or electroacoustic is considered pop music. Is this pop music?? "experimental?" "ambient?" to me it just feels devotional.
