Sampled Rhodes loop with amplified acoustic guitar and some crackling samples.

These sounds aim to support relaxation. The track is based around a tongue drum melody with added effects and two atmospheric pad samples from the site Samplefocus.com

Ideas of the self in all its complexity.

Started with a bass line. Looped it. Found a drum sample. Edited and looped it. Added a guitar riff on top. Finished with vocals. All in all, experiments in putting together a song with four tracks.

Big picture questions with my 5 year-old.

A short walking meditation reflecting on health, mortality, and aging parents. Then a cover of "Heaven" by The Talking Heads.

This started woth a piano riff. I used samplefocus.com for cello. I added a second cello track with a slightly higher pitch. Then I added an atmospheric pad sample for a dreamy effect. This one might help you drift off to sleep.

Walking and talking about Self-compassion.
