Only one album out rn (The Moviegoer), yes this is my husband’s music project! I play on it too now and more coming soon :))) if you’re in LA (or anywhere) keep an eye out on our insta— we’re playing more and more shows and some shows in NY and hopefully Manchester on the map too!! “Introducing a revisionist exotica for these times…aquatic synths & drum machines, slide guitars & santoors, stray trumpets and accordion...ethno-industrial, dub, and samples from a fifty-year old suitcase of cassettes... The major catalyst was a suitcase of twenty cassettes my father unearthed from his teenage years in Iran, recorded between 1972-1975, taping DJ monologues off the radio, lines of movie dialogue off the TV, radio plays, spoken word translations of European pop... That made it a kind of excavation of a bygone time, a travelogue to a place accessed only through cultural artifact & collective memory. An imaginary soundtrack to a half-remembered movie from a faraway place.”

astounding experimental album comprised of field recordings and jangly americana guitar / banjo work. this album uses sounds to convey what it's like to be facing an imminent environmental collapse. some cool words from daniel: "From the heart of Delhi, to Tangier Island. The burning redwood forests, the dying jet stream waters. It is happening to you and to me. We pump carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere by the gigaton as the cascading feedback loops of climate breakdown continue to destabilize the biosphere. Oh, the wind and rain. We have all lived it. Stunned by the unfathomable power of our Earth and a sinking derealization about our tenuous future."

I’ve been maintaining a looong playlist spanning jazz, folk, ambient, r&b/doo-wop, shoegaze, soundtrack scores and more, I’m sure. The main theme is imagining tracks that would sound good in an empty old dusty bar, or maybe walking along a foggy river bank on a still night. Sonically, I’m aiming for interesting textures, catchy melodies, or sparse production. Throw it on shuffle and see what catches yr ear. Sampler of artists: Mary Lattimore, Eno/Fripp, Cassandra Jenkins, Harry Nilsson, Beach House ✨
