I (try to) make electronic music...when I can. Think synths and layered vocals and an ineptitude at making beats. Someone once called me Ireland's answer to Broadcast and - honestly? - I'll take that
Maybe, for my next piece, I should write a wee acoustic number with this AI monstrosity as the lyrics. Just for the craic.

It's giving Smashing Pumpkins "Lily" vibes, but for the AI age.

It's #BandcampFriday! It's been a while since I released some new bits, but my current complete discography is 50% off!

Was just waiting at the bus stop and a white van sped past me blaring Slade's "I Wish It Could Be Christmas" at top volume.

Pretty damn weeeeeeeeeird.

Some people are really out there living their lives with un-muted group chats.

1/3 Just had a very-fun-to-write piece published in issue 11 of the Journal of Imaginary Research! Abstract 14: "Diminishing Sounds: A longitudinal study of bassoon decline in contemporary orchestras"

There is - what I could only refer to as - a troop of about 8-10 year old children marching (dancing) up and down my street right now singing the entirety of the YMCA repeatedly (and badly) at the top of their lungs and it is absolutely *glorious* 😂

Clicked into meta ai in Whatsapp by mistake (FUCK AI) and it's so unhinged. Why in the ever loving fuck would I need this in my *Whatsapp*? Pay particular attention to the first and last options...

Had a dream last night that Tilda Swinton was leading a militia, trapped me in the children's clothing shop in a massive shopping centre, then bombed the absolute shit out of the whole thing.

What did I ever do to you, Tilda?

WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU‽

Saw a man living his best life this morning; just eating an entire family sized platter of sushi whilst casually sauntering past QUB's Lanyon Building this morning at 7am. Incredible work. No notes.

Happy birthday to all my kids 🖤

The plans to keep releasing according along a Fibonacci timeline* have been scuppered because I have nothing new to release today. Dammit.
