about

The title- "Wabi-Sabi" in english- is named for the Japanese Buddhist philosophy of seeing and accepting the beauty of the unfinished, the broken, and the impermanent. At one point I was going to make an album of this whole feeling. But my computer started going wrong, and eventually, I decided these three tracks, written over the last four years, just needed to be released before I started fresh on new hardware. And you know what? I think these three tracks fit together very nicely.

And plus, with us all, at the time of writing, stuck at home-- seems like a good time to get something out that isn't made for the clubs

Three tracks, not that dancefloor orientated, and an exploration of rich harmonic ideas- something I previously felt I hadn't practised enough. Fun cultural appropriation, not just in visuals and naming, but also in employing the hirajoshi scale for the third track- the tuning scale adapted from shamishen music. It's very pretty.

I sincerely hope you enjoy them, and greatly appreciate you for listening, or even just reading this far.

Thanks!

Hurtdeer Bristol, UK

i am a dance music producer with brain damage (good kind).

I like to make things that make you dance when you hear them loud but also trick you into thinking that perhaps what you're listening to is "high art". This is an illusion however. I am a trickster devil. I hope this message finds you well ... more
