New!! The Caverns of Time

In my quest to find closure with the passed The Caverns of Time album was created. I did a deep dive into buried and obscure motifs and songs from the years 1985-1990 (the earliest music of this project by far) and I tried to inject new life into songs that I wrote when I was a teenager just getting used to my synths. I thought that the magic of youth and inexperience created some hidden treasures that deserved to be ressurected (albeit heavily rearranged and orchestrated!) Combining the aged music with a lifetime of memories old and new blossomed unforseen beauty often out of deep sadness. The album will be available on bandcamp and most streaming services Friday May 9th with my regular limited pressing soon to follow

Somber Catalyst Volume XII

New!! Somber Catalyst XII – “This Tender Affliction” album is now available on major streaming platforms and physical media via the bandcamp store. This latest release in the SC series is a journey through grief and loss. The sounds and samples were derived from a recorder which was left on for 11 hours unintentionally in my parent’s home. These fragments of my passed will forever haunt me. Thanks as always for listening…

Passed 2

While working on my mother’s and father’s albums this past year I was also reassembling archival material from early songs and projects from the very beginning of MMB. While some of the vocal tracks would have made sense to be on their albums I felt they didn’t fit the vibe I was going for as a tribute to them. So those songs and archival tape melodies and newly constructed songs from aging sheet music have been strung together into a lifetime of swirling emotions through the bandcamp link: Passed 2 The album will also be available soon on major streaming services and in physical form
