about

here's three instrumentals mostly made from multiple layers of improvisation, "Knowledge Can Be Kinda Painful" being a rather epic suite built around a generative midi patch created with Nodal.

"Happiness" is heavy on balafon and a celebration of West African music traditions - i brought my balafon back from Guinea in 2004.

enjoy!
