"Planet Escapism" (2026)
Although my albums are made for situations like sitting on your couch and listening to music just to zone out, he's been making a lot of danceable music. Planet Escapism was waiting for a long time for it to be free and go out into the wilderness. For example the first demo for "Nightwalk" was made in early 2020 and finished in late 2025.
The album contains 12 songs made with analogue and digital synthesizers, don't forget to mention drum machines. It's synth music which isn't just blips and blops, but it's hard to tell what it is. Kind of a genre blending mature album. You can hear hints of electric boogie, synthwave, cosmic disco, italo and french touch in Planet Escapism.
But most importantly, it's a full length album telling a story of us people here on this wonderful planet. We have all this beauty around us, but we choose to escape reality in distinct places, locked in our phones, spiraling in our heads and so on. Everyone does escapism from time to time. It's human nature, you just have to have a healthy relationship with it.

"Echo of Flow" (2025)
"Echo of Flow" was inspired by meditation practices and supposed to be music to calm your nerves and ground you to this moment, played and composed by myself. Soundscape of the EP is tranquil and yet so vivid, almost a spiritual experience. It's the first release after my last full length album "Sunset Wonderland".
Care, love & heal: your environment, body & mind.

"Sunset Wonderland" (2024)
"Sunset Wonderland" is a mysterious, evocative and slightly melancholic album.
The inner thought of the album is to enjoy this moment while the world around us is changing. It combines different genres together to create this ethereal and psychedelic audio journey. As you listen to the album you can hear influences from cosmic jazz, 70's progressive rock and a side of smoother electronica.
It took four years to complete "Sunset Wonderland". During those years I collected a variety of different analogue synths and other instruments to create the tone of the album. The album's sound is mostly guitar and Rhodes/Wurlitzer based while the synths support the structure and give an analogue warmth.

"Jubilee -97" (2019)
"Jubilee -97" is my second instrumental beat tape full of delicious samples from various records. You can hear influences from such artists like Knxwledge, Karriem Riggins, J Dilla, the list goes on…
Tracks on albums aren't just hip hop beats or lo-fi beats, they're wholesome songs, full of potential. Perfect album to listen to during those late night walks or while sipping the first cup of coffee of the day.
