    SINGLE RUN, LIMITED TO 20, translucent blue cassettes features exclusive artwork and b-side(s) unavailable anywhere else online or on physical media.

    The b-side of the cassette features a sound collage of modulated field recordings from my hometown of Pueblo, Colorado. In the summer of 2019, while shooting footage for the Pueblo Nights video, I spent three days gathering sounds from locations significant to my life. I ran the recordings through a vocoder and layered synthesizers and samples from a faux radio show I recorded with a boombox as a kindergartner. Other samples include moments from rehearsals and writing sessions with my high school punk band I formed with a long lost friend. Miss you, Luke. Call me.

lyrics

I wanna talk about it but don't know what to say
I think I forget about it but then I doubt it and it never goes away
There's a memory of a door that I open to greet you
Your eyes telling me more than your heart would ever let you

The memories of then don't feel old
Like crying in your car
or standing in the road
kissing

What is left of what you love but always thought you'd lose
How tight a grip is tight enough to squeeze and leave no bruise
You deleted all your posts but your avatar's still there
You're in some kitchen eating pasta with someone who doesn't care

The memories of then don't feel old
like driving in the dark
or walking in the snow wishing

Right here, this spot on the map
on summer vacation
that year, remember that
when the oldies used to play on a different station

Now, he composes laid back pop grooves driven by shaky electric guitar tones and chiming keyboards.
