Single Drown Wake
At the Edge of Sleep
I wrote this song out of that strange threshold between dreaming and waking, when memory, instinct, fear, wonder, and stillness all briefly occupy the same room.

A dark, forceful examination of how two people can experience the same danger, wound, fear, or choice and measure it completely differently.
Album A World Becoming
Nazca Tridactyls
I built this ambient electronic album around the mystery surrounding the Nazca tridactyl claims, using desert atmosphere, archaeological tension, and quiet cosmic wonder rather than spectacle.
Single Corra's Light
I Withheld
I revisited "I Withheld" through Corra's Light, keeping the song's restraint and emotional honesty while giving it a warmer, female-led soft rock treatment.
Single Sivra Dark
The Unbroken Light
I wrote "The Unbroken Light" as a Sivra Dark song about the resilience of the Iranian people, the refusal to surrender truth or dignity under repression, and the hope of a future where freedom becomes ordinary enough for children to grow up without fear.
Single RoyRoy Genkins
The Original Blueprint
A reflective RoyRoy Genkins song about authenticity, human creation, fatherhood, and the deeper reality that remains beneath the appearances we construct.
Single Nebula's Pulse
The Nearer Promise
A cinematic Nebula's Pulse chapter where humanity leaves Asha's Bearing to investigate a promising nearby world, only to discover that the ancient material performs differently when the fleet moves out of alignment.
Single RoyRoy Genkins
I Withheld
I wrote I Withheld as a reflective Americana song about a narrator who mistakes silence for stability and slowly feels the cost of holding back.
Single RoyRoy Genkins
Is It the Truth?
I wrote this as a reflection on service, gratitude, and the kind of real human connection that only happens when people keep showing up. It began with my own Rotary history, but I deliberately widened it into a song about community itself.
Single Sivra Dark
False Sunlight
A dark Sivra Dark song about false signals, blurred moral lines, and the difference between something that looks like truth and something that actually is.
Single Nebula's Pulse
Asha's Bearing
A cinematic Nebula's Pulse chapter where an unexplained pattern in ancient technology gives humanity a bearing through deep space, carrying with it a quiet real-world tribute to truth, courage, and the people of Iran.
Single RoyRoy Genkins
The Real Day Breaks
A reflective Americana song about the distance between the day we imagine and the day that actually arrives, set against a Sierra Nevada drive that turned out far warmer, brighter, and calmer than expected.
Single Zed Wishless
Broken Man, Iron Will
I wrote Broken Man, Iron Will around Friedrich Nietzsche, resilience, and the question of what we do with suffering after we survive it.
Single Sivra Dark
The Weight of the Tribe
A dark Sivra Dark single about the point where loyalty to a group begins to demand the surrender of individual conscience.
Single Sivra Dark
Burning Divide
I wrote Burning Divide as a gritty hard-rock confrontation with moral tribalism, repeated hatred, and the choice to hold onto basic truths when division makes that difficult.
