Yellow and Black splatters of paint
 

Unofficial is a set of eight electroacoustic improvisations performed from July 2020 to April 2021. These improvisations were an attempt at opening up and searching within for a musical expression underneath my official, public identity. Performed in private, these sounds revealed my true emotions to me: from intense anger to hopeful optimism; they are the unofficial feelings of the subconscious. This vulnerability, aided by my foggy reclusion, exposed an inner sonic identity and flow that was cathartic and energizing. Sharing them with you now is an attempt at transformation: to expose and make real that which was locked away with the hope that we can create a future for each other where our unofficial and official feelings can be one in the same.

The album cover is my Painted Future by The Stigma Fog Saint, divined at Coaxial Arts in August of 2020.

Unofficial Feelings was a part of NYC Electroacoustic Music Festival (NYCEMF) 2021 and is available on Orenda Records.
