Releases
Still Life: Releases Feb. 26, 2021

Scratch Wave Media
Still Life is my second solo album. It is a five track album with the three primary tracks focusing on different field recordings of "wind and leaves" (1), "rain" (3), and "birds" (5). Electronic textures merge from these field recordings, each one being treated in a slightly different way. These primary tracks are split from each other by two "interludes," which also merge found sound recordings with electronic textures. 
Glass Nature: Releases Feb. 12, 2021​

Scratch Wave Media
Glass Nature is a seven track album featuring short solo piano works that I wrote for and are performed by pianist and co-founder of Scratch Wave, Stephanie Yu. All but the first track were composed during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This solo album was conceived as a sort of abstract narrative. It combines free improvisation, noise, poetry and prose, and layering of unrelated material, amidst other sonic elements.

Technics by Spectra: Released Nov. 6, 2020

Mother Brain Records

“Technics” explores the processing, dissection, and morphing of the piano through various electronics processing and improvisation.
“Technics” stems from the philosophical work of the late Bernard Steigler whose concept of technics was that human beings were linked to technology for survival, and in itself was a pharmakon, both the poison and antidote for humanity. The album explores the perceived intersection between the “natural” (the acoustic instrument i.e. the piano) and the “synthetic” (the electronics) and how they are each in a symbiotic relationship feeding and heightening each other's innate qualities.
“Technics” will be released November 6th on Mother Brain Records
