Today I'm announcing release of the first single of my upcoming album Sabado Especial. Slated for fall 2026 After a long time sitting with the damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't reality of this industry — upload to a DSP and earn .000000000001 per stream after a 1000 streams, meanwhile the platform's employees make astronomically more than almost every artist on it and they couldnt find c on a piano even if it was marked with sticky note , or release on Bandcamp and risk nobody hearing it — I made my choice. It takes too much money, time, energy, and sacrifice to make quality music to just hand it over to an empire that doesn't respect or value its creators. Sustainability for artists has never been a priority or intention of any of the DSPs.
That doesn't sit right with me. So I'm taking the long road. The quiet one. The direct one. No DSPs. Not for a while — maybe not ever.
I'm releasing straight to the people who actually show up. If you want to support me and have a quality listening experience, come to my Bandcamp.
I take great pride in creating quality, enriching musical experiences.
I want it to land in the hands of people who feel & appreciate it.
"New Morning" is a meditation on beginnings — lush, soulful, and still. The kind of track you put on when the sun is barely up and the world hasn't asked anything of you yet. It features the great on a rare vibraphone appearance.
"New Morning" — out now. Donation based. Pay what you like exclusively on recordings
