Music Production

“I’ve suffered for my art. Now it’s your turn.”

James has haunted festivals, nightclubs and A/V spaces since the 90s in genres ranging from the extremely experimental to the only somewhat experimental.

Now primarily (although not exclusively) focused on studio work, after a long period focusing exclusively on visual and textual projects.

Tomorrow’s Forgotten Relics

Current home studio project:

Art-rock for End-times

lost in myth, EP

Lost in Myth doesn’t rewrite so much as reframe the self-titled demo it’s built upon. The skeletal urgency and cosmic weirdness of its origins have evolved into something denser, more volatile—a study in structure and collapse.

A distant echo of Bowie's Blackstar and Outside resonates beneath the surface—an undercurrent of haunted grandeur that never settles into the familiar, emerging through shifting time signatures, elliptical motifs, and alluringly cryptic lyrical phrases. Yet its center of gravity leans heavier—something like Faith No More’s shapeshifting aggression, Mastodon’s seismic weight, or The Mars Volta’s fever-dream pacing flicker through the mix, though never predictably.

Across its quarter-hour runtime, the EP builds toward maximalist climaxes that feel both inevitable and unstable, with layers of alternately jagged or atmospheric guitars, muscular rhythms, and spectral melodies pressing against their limits. Art rock as a balancing act—always changing, always tilting toward the void. A soundtrack for a world in flux.
