FAQ

Why is it all so… slow?
Because folk / environmental isn't trying to win the room. It's the road, mostly — made to sit underneath a moment rather than interrupt it.
Can I use a track in a video / podcast / game?
Get in touch through the label with the details. Small and independent projects are welcome to ask.
Do you take commissions?
Occasionally, for the right project. Enquiries via the label.
Do you play live?
Rarely, and only in intimate rooms. If you run a small space and want to enquire, get in touch — nothing is scheduled unless it's listed here.
Can I license this for film, TV or a project?
Yes — everything here is available for sync and licensing through the label. Use the enquiries link and tell me about the project.

Reference points

A guzheng carried across borders, playing for whoever is on the road that day.

I write folk / environmental on the guzheng. Mostly it's about the journey and the road — ordinary things, made a little more visible.

There are a handful of records — “Birds in Heaven”, “Fellow Traveller”, “Garden Gods”, “Kyoto Temples”, “Los Muertos” and more — and they belong together.
