Stay tuned after for much bigger things to follow!

After living in Denver for about half a year, I am pleased to announced that I have started my own music production company, Paper Satellite Productions LLC. I have been producing music for others for a long time, but now I have begun branching out and working with others in the local music community.
Paper Satellite Productions is based on the idea that with careful listening and observation, a little intuition, and a lot of hard work, it is possible to create something beautiful that will last a lifetime, even if you're starting from nothing. It is a chance for me to take all that I have learned about what makes music possible and put it to use in a way that brings out the best of the musicians that I work with, as well as myself.
It was not the easiest of decisions, but filled with the desire to advance my career in a bigger city with a different music scene, and to establish myself in a more varied climate, I have relocated to Denver, Colorado. I have been blessed by living in an environment with immediate access to a vibrant music scene, as well as having space to record. I am perpetually in awe at the caliber of musicianship that sets the standard in this city. That said, moving away has given me a new appreciation for my home town. I am very grateful to those who have shown their support for me in my decision. I expect that if I can repay them, it will be with my music.
After a lot of hard work and dedication, the recently emerged band Eldritch Root is proud to release their first official recordings. Working together with Wings Back Entertainment, these songs were recorded in the style of a live performance in a single session. Featuring songwriting and vocals by David Badillo and Mak R. K. Williams, these tunes bring together hard-hitting funk and angsty rock. Eldritch Root's music is available on Spotify and other music streaming and distribution platforms.
Shortly after the release of my latest album, Circumnavigate, I am pleased to announce that Joshua Jarman and I have been working together again on his latest album, titled Wait. Featuring a short cohesive collection of intense and diverse songs, this album builds on the humble, adventurous production of Mud to take the listener on a powerful emotional journey, from the sunny heights of Shine to the dark chasms of Ghost. Also be sure to check out the single version of Ghost, recorded by Hybrid Audio Solutions with a hard-hitting rock sound.
After four years of hard work and careful dedication to the honing of my sound, I am excited to finally anounce that my third album will be released next month.
Circumnavigate is a collection of divergent scenes and sounds that span a circular journey. Consisting of various styles from folk rock to drum and bass, the album leaves no space for monotony. This album was as much a journey for me as it is for the listener. After the release of my second album, I began a mission to refine my sound and improve my musicianship as much as possible. This led me to many interesting places and to many inspiring people. But ultimately it was an inward journey, because all of the music on this album from the microphone to the master is completely original. No other person had any direct part in its creation. It is for this reason that I consider it the ultimate embodiment of my best musical work.
As of today, the music video showing the recording process for the song Winter Buds off my upcoming album is now available on YouTube. Winter Buds is a song which, unlike the majority of my other material, features only sounds from real live instruments. As such, it was fitting that I should make a video for it, which I did last fall. It was a unique project, as I had the framework for the song laid out for nearly a year, but I started and finished recording it in the span of three long days. Be sure to check it out.
