Well? What are you playing on? Got any new gear? Working on learning or writing something new?

I’m still playing guitar, 23 years strong now. I still have the same blacked-out Washburn 208 I’ve had since the early 00’s… and I recently retired it about 2 and a half years ago for a Schecter Damien. It was a major upgrade to match the amp upgrade I did several years ago… pulled the trigger and went digital with a Line 6. It just made sense with the amount of experimenting I did with sounds and the amount of distortion pedals I didn’t have. Limitless possibilities, and the tone has improved so much since the early digital amps that washed out the tone.

I write a fair amount of music on my computer. I use ableton, some soft synths and a few hardware synths along with my push 2 for the versatility since it directly interfaces with the software. I mostly write lo-fi hip hop beats but I've been doing a bit of four on the floor type stuff recently.

I could definitely have some fun doodling over this kinda stuff.

Always down for collabs. I'd love to work with someone that's actually good at guitar unlike myself. Haha.

I’ve been “manufacturing and constructing various noises” for decades, but have never actually collaborated beyond sitting in a room jamming live with zero record of the sounds produced. People say I can play. I beg to differ. You know how it goes.

I play bass in HIGH LEAF, and I use an orange cab and Amp. The model escapes me at the moment, but you can hear us here, as well as on all streaming services. I'm actually way more of a guitarist but my last band fell apart right as the last bassist and drummer for HIGH LEAF quit, so I bought a rig, learned the parts and joined them. The singer and guitarist are my roommates, too. Known them for about 10 years
