Been quiet lately because I haven’t had much of a drive to write synth music since my move back to Missouri at the end of 2025. I’m still sitting on unreleased music, including new Lord Gloom and some Carpenter-inspired music. I’ve also formed a band, which has been my creative focus. Still alive!

Grimdor is out here once again doing the most Grimdor thing—plagiarizing a Lord of the Rings wiki. I wonder if the music reflects the effort that went into the description.
