DUTY CYCLE | ACTIVE CULTURES (2024) Already Dead

Double album of solo electronics. Available digitally (cassettes sold out)

A riveting together of rust-pocked aesthetics beholden to multiple eras/genres/subcultures of celebratory oppositionality. A musicking of and for electronic bodies, their neural circuitry, and their microbiomes.
