WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THIS ALBUM?

When listening to PAST LIVES … it is my highest hope that you are taken on AN ADVENTURE ! Not only through the years as I wrote and recorded these sounds, but to another realm. A place of peace. A refuge from this crazy world, if only for a little while.

PAST LIVES is my exploration of the past, present, and future … while on the road this year, I had a lot of time to think about the previous stages of my life and wonder about what comes next …

There will be about 13 songs … last about 80 minutes (a true double LP) … with 3 vocal songs featuring Marisol Llaudes (who was featured on ¡ KRL !)

I’ve also sought to explore new sonic landscapes … writing for string quartet (which is a BIG first for me) … as well as incorporating other sounds such as the Fender Rhodes !

Another way in which PAST LIVES is different, is that it is the first album that I wrote on an ACTUAL piano !

I will also be mixing/mastering the entire album as well as creating the artwork (which you can see below) … it has been my dream for a while now to create as much of album by myself as I possibly can, in order to fully realize my vision … and thanks to you, I am finally able to do so !

I hope that these sounds inspire you, make you think, and take you on a journey to a place full of magic and wonder :)
