Chris AndersonSinger-SongwriterIn what has now become a tradition, I took a dive into 2021's 283-song "Music Box" project, and came out with eleven more bangers. That well gave birth to my last three RPM albums (The Solipsist, The Catalyst, and Goodbye Eden) and will likely fuel the next three as well. This also marks my 100th full-length solo release. I'm okay with this record bearing that distinction.AlbumAlexandria/Del RayVirginiaUSALINK
Cybernetic VoyagerExperimentalI let my mind wander and my fingers play while thinking about exploring planets far beyond our solar system. Feeling, interacting with the lifeforms; trying to survive just one month.AlbumGoldveinVirginiaUSALINK
Fares ETraditionalBit of a stylistic departure from me but had a lot of fun putting it together in a week. Its been a nice break from making my 2nd album which is all heavy metalSingleRichmondVirginiaUSALINK
Jacob BartonAmbientA collection of tracks involving the udderbot, my invention of an instrument. Mostly improvised, off-the-cuff, capricious.AlbumVirginia BeachVirginiaUSALINK
JimBaumerMEIndieAn EP with some of my usual populist fodder, but also a track that I pay tribute to the late Scott Miller on, a true power pop genius.EPLynchburgVirginiaUSALINK
loopricationDarkWhat: an album inspired by visiting Greece and a story I read about a burial ground in Peru. It's special because I stayed pretty true to the type of music I wanted to write. How: Some hardware, some software, one "live" modular synth jam but mostly Ableton / Reason.AlbumRichmondVirginiaUSALINK
