Announcing the upcoming release of my new album The Current Situation on Parma Records. The album is a three-part musical meditation on the cultural, political, and psychological moment the United States now finds itself in. Blending instrumental electronic music, improvisation, and spoken narration, the album traces a narrative arc from diagnosis, to confrontation, to the possibility of renewal. It is at once critical, ironic, unsettling, and ultimately hopeful.
Musically, The Current Situation moves between ominous drones, rhythmic electronic textures, improvisational passages, and cinematic sound design. Spoken narration appears throughout the work, functioning less as commentary than as a thread tying the musical movements together. The result is an album that operates somewhere between a soundtrack, a documentary, and a philosophical essay set to music.
At its core, The Current Situation asks a simple but urgent question: when a society recognizes that it has drifted off course, what happens next?
The Current Situation will be available on Parma Records June 2026.
