Oh man oh man oh man it’s here….JOYRIDE, the title track of the debut record from @karinarykman is out in the world on its own two legs. It’s a fucking fun one and you should go play it very loudly on the biggest speakers you can get your hands on. Blow up your speakers. Blow up your neighbor’s speakers. Welcome to rollout season baby!!!!
Breaking three years (!!!) of insta-silence for this. If you’ve been wondering what I’ve been up to, this record has been a big part of it! More on that later.
I am so honored to have written/produced on this thing with an absolute wrecking crew of geniuses. Thank you to each and every beautiful lunatic who had a hand in this!

Built and operated ableton playback for @travisscott on @nbcsnl last night. I remember the first time I saw SNL as a wee lad, now here we are, automating robot camera arms with LTC. Thanks to Scott, Justin, and Kez for trusting me with this one. Footage up on youtube now

This was a really fun session that involved way more discussions about megadeth than you’d guess from the record we made. Love this one and love these legends
SYNONYMS OF STRENGTH. Streaming now everywhere.
So so proud to have had a hand in this. @radamiz has created a profound work of art that is both timely and just straight up heat.

Another one in the books. Heartbroken that tour’s over (been home for a while now don’t worry) but what an incredible run, and what a perfect group of dogs to have pulled it off with. Big love to the entire Bright Side of the Moon P2 Crew.
Love you @rence
Love me boys @swshrofficial@rigoshotme
So much love and thanks to @christianfrench and his entire team for bringing us with them, and for being the absolute best of touring mates. These boys went above and beyond on stage every night with an incredible set - on top of that, they made us feel right at home. @cam.dn and his crew made such a point to look after us at every opportunity, and were such dope dudes (and real professionals) that we all ended up family. Real happy to have met each and every one of those boys.
Big shouts to the behind the scenes work from everyone in christian’s camp and @rence camp: @andrewdkeller@yourstrulymoody@jpmorray@jacob_krupp@avebnb@cam.dn@hunterk_digital@wastedpotential@paradigmtalentagency
Until the next one, stay safe, stay inside, stay healthy, and fuck donald trump!!!
