about

These recordings are representative of one particular point in my saxophone playing, and no longer reflect my language technically, materially, or logically. I was unsure whether to release them at all, as I find it impossible to judge their quality, and hear only alterity. If nothing else, they do paint a picture of a "knight at the crossroads," and capture something that I have decided put out into the world, given that opportunities to record with good equipment are incredibly rare for an impoverished independent musician. I hope that you find something of value here.
