I am happy to announce that my new album “Facade” has been released and is available on all streaming platforms as well as Bandcamp. An Avant-Rock project inspired by the late 70’s work of artists such as Peter Gabriel, David Bowie & Brian Eno, “Facade” incorporates live elements such as acoustic drums and electric guitar with drum programming, synthesis and unusual effects. I hope you enjoy it and thanks for listening!

The apple photo is from a series of images captured by the great NYC photographer CS Han. We decided to shoot on the Manhattan side of the Williamsburg Bridge one cool early morning in August of 2021. The idea was to be shooting on the bridge when there were not many people around. However, we were set back about an hour because I locked my keys in the car. Or at least I thought I did. Turns out I had them all along. I had a lot of bags that day and as a precaution against misplacing them I put them in a bag that I knew would be a safe spot. Except I forgot that I did that in the brain fog of the early morning. In any case, CS Han took some geat photos. The apple was a last second prop that we picked up at a local bodega. I think it is meaningful addition. Green apple could mean knowledge, nourishment or temptation? Or maybe something else…

Welcome to the virtual home of $YNDRM and thank you for stopping by! Here you will find a variety of offerings related to sound, images, words and thoughts. On 11.12.21 $YNDRM will release an Art Rocktronic album entitled “Facade.” It is inspired and informed by the likes of Peter Gabriel, David Bowie and the experimentalism of many Avant-garde composers. Stay tuned for updates as the release date approaches…
