about

Cemetery Bastard - Even The Executioner Dies
30 minutes of vaporwave influenced harsh noise and dark ambient created by using field recordings captured from dead malls, an abandoned robotics factory, and a housing project in the DC area. This is perfect for the urbex noise enthusiast.

"Ever since I was a kid I've always had a huge fear related to the passage of time. Cemetery Bastard for me has been a way to kind of put that into perspective as best as I can. Where the last album I did was more of a means to processing grief this one is more about what happens after that. I think the overall point of the album is one that has been made a million times a million different ways and that is to accept that loss is inevitable and I think that is what I have been trying to get at thematically with the project as a whole. Overall it was my way of reminding myself to enjoy the things I care about even if they won't last forever. Also being unemployed during most of the recording process really influenced my choice to primarily focus on sampling places or former places of commerce as my time spent working was another thing greatly put into perspective for me during the making of this tape.
With this release I tried to create something that both is sound and concept would be difficult to come across and that I would be interested in randomly digging up somewhere on the internet. I'm thankful anyone who checks this new tape out and whether they love it or hate it I hope they at least walk away with a unique listening experience.
The gear I use both live and on recordings, is always changing based on what type of sounds I’m trying to make, most of it is junk, old basses, cheap keyboards, phone apps, scrap metal, and some noise synths. One constant in most of my recordings has always been the use of field recordings I have found just in my everyday life. For this tape in particular I did not use any gear for the source sounds. All of the sounds, even the vocals, were recorded on my cellphone then processed in my DAW with the effects I had there. The recording process for this tape was actually pretty similar to most of my material in that I play around until create something I can use as a basis for the track, then I layer it and create a tangible “beginning”, “middle” and “end” to the track. Once all the tracks were done I came up with a track listing that flows in a way that makes the front to back listening experience as impactful as possible. The one obvious difference with this album than with others was actually going to the various locations to collect field recordings. A lot of those days I went with my brother or my wife, so it was a lot of fun to get to hang out with them while I working on my project as opposed to just working in my house alone. At all of the of the fully abandoned locations I constantly ran into a ton of weird shit. Overall the process of making this tape was much more eventful than any of my previous recording efforts and I am very happy for all of the experiences I walked away with.
