I wanted to create a collection of music that reflects my diverse tastes, but also I wanted to explore the energetic balance between heaviness and weightlessness, between beauty and aggression, tension and release. Since I am on tour year round, I decided to take a few original tracks, and combine them with some remixes of older material, and some collaborations as well, to flush out as many individual pieces as possible. When I realized it would be a full album, and not just an EP, I decided to compile each song in order of how i would play it in a set: Usually i arrange my sets in terms of Acts (like a play) and each Act contains various routines (which are segments of loops/songs/samples that all flow together harmonically, melodically, energetically, etc) and then I kind of just let loose.
