The new year is upon us

Greetings, everyone! Things have been quiet around here, mostly due to some life events that have put a damper on creating and sharing new music with you all. But I intend to change that.

While the beginning of a new calendar year is somewhat arbitrary, it is a time to reflect and to set goals. And my goal for 2022 is to both create more music and to get the word out about my music to more people.

As a small, random, and somewhat uncharacteristic treat, I share with you a remix I did eight years ago. It’s a combination of four popular songs from that time and from years ago by Avicii, Ke$ha, Psy, and Nirvana. You’re now curious, right? Listen to it here.

I hope everyone has a healthy, safe, productive, and music-filled new year, and I appreciate you listening and supporting Turing Tape.

10K monthly listeners on Spotify

Grateful to have hit this milestone recently! Thank you for listening to my music. It inspires me to make more of it.

Pandemic’s End Now Available

It’s here! My first release since my debut album. You can hear the single on Spotify, Bandcamp, Soundcloud, and other services, too. I hope you enjoy listening, and I also hope that this pandemic will be over soon.

Pandemic’s End – Coming May 23, 2021

I should certainly hope the end of the COVID-19 pandemic is coming next month. But what is more certain is that my next single entitled Pandemic’s End will be released next month.

Pre-save it on Spotify so you can be notified when it’s available.

Coming soon: Pandemic’s End

My next release will be a single entitled Pandemic’s End.

Like many of you, this past year (plus) was an unprecedented one. We endured isolation, adjustment, confusion, and grief brought on by the global COVID-19 pandemic, and are now starting to feel elation and relief as vaccines become available.

We sit at the beginning of the end of this pandemic. We’re ready to move forward, but can’t do so with pure joy, given the countless people who lost their lives to the disease.

I thought it fitting to create a work that incorporates this combination of feelings: the anticipation of happiness and hope as we return to some level of normalcy mixed with the apprehension of what the future may bring and the sadness and melancholy for those who we are leaving behind.

I expect the single to release next month, in May. I’ll share a pre-save link here so you all can be alerted when it’s live.

Be well, and stay hopeful.

An interview with Turing Tape

I was recently interviewed by IndieMix.org, who features independent artists. In that interview, I share a little more about the inspiration behind Phenomena. I also share a hidden meaning behind one of the tracks of the album, Moonbow. Check out the interview here.

Turing Tape on the radio

Big thanks to Seth and Café Chill for featuring my track Sunrise last Sunday on C89.5FM here in Seattle.

Seth’s show is an eclectic collection of downtempo and indie electronic music curated by someone with deep knowledge and love for music.

Please check his show out. You won’t be disappointed.

Five weeks in

It’s been five weeks since my album Phenomena debuted. Since then:

  • The album has been streamed over 2,800 times by over 1,500 listeners on Spotify.
  • Tracks from the album have been added to 20 Spotify playlists.
  • Sunrise was featured on the Flow State podcast.
  • I’ve connected with dozens of musicians on Instagram and have over 130 followers.

If you’re an established musician, these numbers are small. But, for an independent artist with a debut release five weeks ago, it’s an encouraging start.

I’m grateful for everyone who’s listening and sharing my music. I’m excited to make more in 2021!
