Here is a piece of my newly completed album, to be titled East River, all composed in Brooklyn 2025!

It’s all instrumental and features the vibraphone and metalophone for the melodies. Film music, plus artists such as Nick Cave, Lana Del Rey and Pink Floyd influenced the sound- a spacey swirling stew.

My biggest thanks go to my guitar players, Craig Graham and Guthrie Lord, and my bassists Andrew Hall, Tony Levin (of Peter Gabriel) and Scott Devendorp (of The National). I handled the writing, vibraphone, metalophone, keyboards and synthesizers. Mixed by Ross Rice and mastered by Ed Littman.

Release expected winter 2026!

Jump Phenomena started as a jam between Jimmy Goodman and me. We spent time setting up four synths, all tracking MIDI into the DAW, with the goal of capturing raw material we could later shape into full tracks.

Recording both audio and MIDI gave us freedom to experiment later, swapping stems back and forth, redesigning sounds, and automating parameters to build tension and release. During a bout of Covid, I spent a few nights editing in my bedroom, cutting and reshaping sections until the track started to feel alive.

Once we had the arrangement right, Jimmy and I mixed it together in his home studio, with his seasoned ear guiding the process. Then life happened (I became a dad, Jimmy moved to Brooklyn) and the track sat for nearly two years.

Now it’s finally out in the world, and we couldn’t be happier to share it. You can hear Jump Phenomena through the link in my bio. If it resonates with you, add it to a playlist or drop a like and follow on SoundCloud – those small gestures really do make a difference. by @leopardstudio

Jump Phenomena is out now.

The title comes from nonlinear dynamics: sudden shifts that happen after a long, steady buildup. That’s the energy of this track, which builds like it’s about to break, releases, then pulls back before the snap.

Jimmy Goodman, cofounder of TransporterRaum in NYC where The Strokes and Blonde Redhead recorded, and I built this track from a jam at Nick Cislak’s Kensington studio almost two years ago. We chopped and reshaped those recordings into something restless, volatile, and jungle-inspired.

It feels like the world right now, tension on the edge of a sudden break.

If you dig it, drop a comment and share this post, even if it’s just with one friend or family member. Every share signals the algorithm and helps the music reach more people. Thanks so much for listening and supporting. by @leopardstudio
