Kitchen Island

Small kitchen island built from reclaimed heart pine. Shop made veneer on the walls, resawn from 12″ wide barge board. The panels in the doors are built from the same stock, and both sets of twin doors feature symmetrical book matched panels. I built the drawer fronts for the drawer stack from a single piece, so the grain travels across the doors. Solid maple dovetailed drawers and soft close hinges complete the piece. I wanted to build this project as high quality as possible, down to the last detail.

 

 

Cadillac Summer Mixtape

Thirty three minutes : thirty three seconds of carefully selected bangers to help your rims gleam, your engine hum, ward off rain when the top down, and disrupt police radio.

Straight forward southern summer and car jams with a few west coast joints thrown in.

Dedicated to the dedication Burt G and the Reader are showing for their 1979 Coupe de Ville.

Yin Yang Book Club Mix

A  mix I did for Constance that encourages reflection and daydreaming. Designed for heavy tropical rain and napping, it falls apart and ends in a drone.

Side A is a short collection of soulful, haunting songs. Largely instrumental, the vibe is stoney, introspective, subtle.

Side B moves into abstract and atmospheric territory. A lot of computer generated music, but with an ear toward warm and droney tracks. I layered these barely musical songs with structured ones to create a moody collage.
