Logic offers no defense, Underneath this Influence

About Me

Basically this is just me experimenting with sound and trying to create music that I myself would enjoy. My tracks generally fall under the genre of down-tempo IDM/Ambient with a slight Psychedelic and Dub influence, and are reasonably minimal.
Although occasionally I will piece together something truly out of character...

Generally I am attempting to capture a sense of mystery, nostalgia, beauty, and of time passing.
