Beatz Me -- Complete
This album is a departure from my usual folk rock / pop direction. I am using a number of beats I created some years ago coupled with spoken word -- hip hop of a peculiarly pedestrian nature.
Release date: September 2022

Detached
The majority of people live lives of quiet desperation, said Thoreau, who probably knew -- not sure. But this is dedicated to those trying to recapture what has been lost.

Is this the Hammerhead?
It seems like the events just hammer us these days. And I've always liked the Hammerhead drum machine. Perfect marriage.
