STEP INTO THE OCEAN (2024)

"...Invigorates with its conceptual aim and aesthetical swells... a resonating success - Obscure Sound

"An exhilarating artistic statement and listening experience" - Michael Brewster

“Expansive, lush, and immersive sound that pulls you in with an inescapable grip” - Lost in the Manor

STEP INTO THE OCEAN is a spiritual sequel. Where THROW MYSELF INTO THE BAY captured a privileged man in his 30s not handling a string of life-changing events well at all, this album is his stopping, slowing down, and looking critically at what's most important around him – including his own thoughts.

This album was (mostly) written 7-10 years before my last album was written, but I was too consumed by impostor syndrome to release or promote it. It meant something different then – I wrote it in the throes of living together with my partner for the first time, and the ups & downs that came with that. Revisiting this material 10 years later caused it to take on new meaning.
