about

this album was written in 22 days in the single month of February back in 2017. the idea of creating a soundtrack to an era which witnessed freelance spies and others working in the intelligence field, testing their mettle against the kgb in moscow caught my attention. in my minds eye a delightful concept emerged when reading the the moscow rules (which are just 10 rules of thumb really). yet, there was almost an emotional context for each rule and i wanted to play with that.

writing this album was one of the quickest and most fluid in all my writing up to date. i generally have a hard time releasing content that i let sit too long. feeling as if its context gets lost in time and technique as one develops in their craft . while things could be conceptualized differently. i think this work speaks well and i wish to share it's story with you (the one reading this). thank you for your support, i cant wait to share future work!
