about

I could write up a whole deeply sincere story about my life falling apart, crying over the pieces, finally creating my own music (while still crying about the pieces) and then things coming apart in new-old ways... and I already did when I wrote this track.

An equally honest story: This is fanfic.

Specifically, Sandman fanfic. I don't always write fanfic, but when I do, I spend a year producing/recording it and then hope my friends will like it enough to help me pay my bills. Backstory: I was asked by some friends to do a performance as Morpheus on a Sandman themed variety show. Halfway through writing it, I realized that Morpheus rebuilding the Dreaming is more implied than shown, whereas I had been convinced that it took up at least few pages of swirling architecture and smoke and galaxies and feelings.

I hope you enjoy my interpretation of myself, and of Morpheus.

I did all the stuff.

The composition. The playing. The production. The mix. The master. The art. I even wrote this paragraph. All virtues and faults are entirely mine.
