Bio

For me, music always exists within a space, within a context, and as a texture of phenomena. It is my sincere effort to find the sound of spaces, contexts, and experiences. I am a Seattle-based music producer, and Noctilusense is my musical alias.

I've been a member of the SCA since 2019 and am so grateful for the connections and the opportunities that have come my way as a direct result of being a part of this amazingly diverse and inspiring community.

Over the years, my career path has included recording studio technoloy, custom music curation, musicology metadata research, and various forms of team leadership and creative collaboration. I finally took a turn into producing my own instrumental compositions starting in the late 2000's. (My even earlier training in classical and jazz guitar informs my music too, if in some very oblique ways.)

My current sound is a combination of softsynths, analog synths, processing, and ambient guitar exploring textures and overlapping tonal layers. Usually slowly evolving and sometimes static. Frequently liminal and melancholic. Occasionally romantic but never saccharine.

To borrow the words of contemporary music critic Alex Ross: "In all, I approach music not as a self-sufficient sphere but as a way of knowing the world."
