Darkwave

While I mostly frequent hardcore, shoegaze, and punk-adjacent shows in my local area's scene, growing up I learned the not-so-punk instrument of piano. That knowledge, coupled with a few theory classes I took as electives in college, lead me to searching for cool and less-classical applications for the keys.

Luckily, keyboards combined with my tech-oriented interests lead me to picking up my first analog synthesizer.

I was already into a lot of post-punk acts and late 80s bands had a few select synthesizer tracks, but after shortly after picking up my first Korg Ms-20 off Craigslist, I was thoroughly hooked on the darkwave, ebm, and industrial scene.

With no knowledge of DAWs and a love for the tactile feel of knobs and sliders, I started to build a small a few small patches and sequences on my collection of hardware. Below you'll find some of the direct recordings from my mixer.
