It’s Bandcamp Friday! I’m currently looking for a label for my new album, so no new music at the moment, but here’s a track from my 2023 album Palimpsest which is more similar to the music on my new album than the rest of the tracks. The full album is available to download at subsumed.bandcamp.com.

I've started contacting labels to see if anyone would be interested in releasing my new album. Does anyone here know of any labels that might be interested in releasing a 3 hour piano album consisting of 160 very short pieces?

Screenshot of tracks 46-60 with their original numerical titles in an Apple Music window. 

Note on numerical titles: I had originally given the tracks titles corresponding to their chronological recording date. Last night I renamed all of the tracks so that their titles/numbers would correspond to their places in the the final, re-sequenced tracklist.

My next album, Jiaogulan, is finished! 171 tracks in 3 hours and 24 minutes of 100% improvised solo piano in the form of short, free jazz instant compositions inspired by Ahleuchatistas, Minutemen, and the Rock in Opposition movement, w/ lots of mod wheel pitch bending. Mastered by Andrew Weathers.
