Squash has gotten a label release! The album is available to order on CD (featuring three bonus tracks) via @subjangle_official 🔗 link in bio.
All profits from the CD/Bandcamp will go to @jayarner 's transition. She produced this album!
Ever since I started self-releasing music 15 years ago, I've always wanted to release music through a boutique indie label. I reached out to a few in the early days, but it never worked out, and so I resigned myself to putting out my own music and kinda forgot this was even a possibility. Huge thanks to Darrin at Subjangle for reaching out and making the dream come true. It's an honour to release music through a label I previously admired from afar.
This is the back cover of the CD. Thanks to @mikewithers1373 for helping with the photography and layout.
Had a visit with Sadie a couple weeks back ❤️ I wrote the song "Sadie" more than 10 years ago, when I would take her on long walks as a puppy. It took me a decade to capture it properly, but I made some tweaks to melody and lyrics and it's on my new album. Squash is out now on all the usual streamers, and some more fun news is coming soon 🟡🟡
New album out now! I recorded Squash in my basement and now it's pinging around the internet and can be heard at all the usual places you listen to music. I loved making this, so I would be honoured if you checked it out 🟡🟡

All Bandcamp sales will be donated to Jay's transition fundraiser.

In August 2015, I released an instrumental guitar/synth album called Tacoma Dome, and I finally put it on streaming services for the 10th anniversary. I was listening to a lot of John Carpenter and Dirty Beaches at the time, and made a bunch of creepy (but hopefully still kinda pretty?) ambient songs inspired by that weird arena near Seattle. It was mixed by @jayarner . Stream it wherever! Slide 2 is a photo of me and Sadie from this past Christmas 💗
Hello from my basement studio, or as Kate affectionately calls it, "Alex's Masturbatorium." The new Rec Centre album is done and coming out very soon! The debut @weakhands album is close! I'll be releasing a single called "Polly and Andy" in a couple weeks 🟡🟡 #squash

Hi!! I made a playlist of what I think are the best Rec Centre songs, mostly because I want to steer people away from the one ranked as my "top song" on Spotify, which is fine but definitely not my favourite! Link in bio 🔗 Thanks to @mikewithers1373 for taking this photo, and also for driving us to Burlington at a moment's notice to watch the eclipse from the side of the highway after we made it into the path of totality with like 5 minutes to spare! And thanks to @katierowboat for giving us these very dank glasses to protect our eyes 😎
