FailSafe lyric video released
Historically I’ve not done much with music videos. As a novice, I’ve found them difficult to script & film. Also, they tend to be expensive and require multiple people to help in various ways.

Wait.. Grunge what?
After spending several weeks focusing on synth-forward tracks it feels weird that the new track leans so heavily into grungy guitar grooves.

Been a hot minute since the last band news update. Ooof. Good news though, a couple tracks destined for the next album have assumed their final arrangement/shape, with more on the way. It’s been less than a year since ExoAnthro came out (at time of writing), and yet it’s funny how positively ancient it sounds…

2024 In Review
What a year for Solid-State Sunlight! 2024 witnessed the release of the debut EP. Seems so pedestrian now, but what a massive undertaking it was! Since we’re looking back, let’s share a 2024 wrap-up really quick. Specifically, ’tis the season of Spotify Wrapped. It didn’t occur to me that artists received these, but today I…

Dusting off the Doepfer
Back in the studio today! Developing a patch that integrates the A-137 Wave Multiplier I bought off of Angelspit a while back. If you haven’t messed with wave folding before, you should. It’s… intense. If history is any indication, I will assemble a couple killer patches, challenge myself to capture them in a way that…

New synth module in the studio
New (to me) module for the Doepfer! It’s been lightly-used, but something tells me this one could be a monster. Call it a hunch…
