Huge thanks to Nikoletta for this very moving review. It means so much to know that the stuff I work on for long hours connects with other people in a meaningful way.

Today I review something I’ve wanted to write about for awhile: “A Lonely Gust Toward the Heavens” by @MBMachines. While this isn’t there new album I feel compelled to signal boost this one. This is #cinematic and sad #neoclassical music done right. loveacrosslightyears.com/202…

Back after a long hiatus. It's been nice to see this album of mine continue to get some attention here and there. I suppose the melancholy is ever-more appropriate these days. Here are some @FreeAlbumCodes if you'd like to listen.

Just wrapped up directing a music video for my friend Scott's band, Elison. They had a bad case of Band Face so I tried to fix it.

I won Best Director tonight at the Great Canadian Comedy Film Festival. Feels nice. The award was for this short, which some of you might enjoy: shriekingtree.com/video/enjo… I wrote the music as well, which you can find here: makebelievemachines.bandcamp…

Jim used to routinely use the phrase “evil, evil music” as a way of jokingly describing his art, so this feels pretty on point.

Evil, evil folk. From a foreigner's eyes this feels like a peek into Deep America's mythology. Stories about murder, been raised by the Devil and drunk ravings. Sorry about Jim's departure but at least the pain is over. @MBMachines #folk #gothfolk thetwelvecanons.bandcamp.com…

I should also mention that Jim wrote a few more optimistic songs that were very beautiful. “The Spirit of Pregnancy and You in the Nude” was the one from the album @sykonauta linked above, but this one is my favorite of his: thetwelvecanons.bandcamp.com…

I seriously can’t believe Sony put time into doing this. Why.
