about

“A collection of tracks made in 2014 during my final year of high school.
Abandoned and forgotten, now cast into the light of day.”

Every sound you hear in this music began life as an acoustic sound.
Thank you to Thibaud for taking on the absurd task of mixing tracks recorded on iPhone voice memos.
Thank you to Alsea, Jay and Niki for your vocal contributions.
Thank you to friends and family who inspired and supported the creation of this music.

"More Beautiful"
Impromptu song by my niece Alsea, recorded by my brother on a trip to Brisbane. I looped a section of the song and composed music to accompany it.
Acoustic guitar, electric guitar, violin, and voice by JE.

"He Waits, Waits"
Alto saxophone, cupboard, percussion, violin, and voice by JE.

"I Want You All To Be Self Aware"
I asked Jay Cooper to deliver an impromptu poem in the middle of English class, recorded it and composed music to accompany it. I played it to him for the first time on his birthday that year.
Acoustic guitar, melodica, violin, and voice by JE.
Additional production by Thibaud Kessell.

"Reposed"
I sent Niki Johnson this piano track, and she sent back three haunting vocal takes recorded on her laptop’s in-built microphone, which I then layered on top.
Piano by JE.

"Blue"
Alto saxophone, cymbals, electric guitar, and field recordings by JE.
Thank you to James Sarno for lending me his electric guitar in 2014.
