After composing and producing “Dream” in September, 2025, I created an album called “Always”. I had become infatuated with a way of creating music that was new to me — working in sections.

I had grown bored with making songs that had traditional song structures; verse/chorus/verse/chorus/bridge/chorus had lost its thrill. That sort of song-writing had begun to feel constraining and unnatural to me. Well, after some back-and-forth, I settled in to composing in sections and mixing those sections into to songs that repeat a lot less.

My most recent, 5-section song is now on bandcamp. It’s called “Winding Grind/Deepspace Mining/Promises/There Could Be Hope/Texturefunk”.

For the duration of this summer, I have not worked on music. It was really hard to stop when I heard God in prayer. He told me I couldn’t make music, and He didn’t tell me whether I’d ever be allowed to make it again.

Over the coming months, I realized that I had been seeking my own glory. I wanted my music to be proof to others of how great I thought I was. One of the problems with that kind of thinking: no amount of praise is ever enough.

Humans weren’t designed to handle the kind of glory and praise that God deserves.

This past Monday, I was praying and asking God if I could make music again, and He said, “yes.” Earlier that morning, I had read John 7. Jesus said something in John 7 that was perfectly pertaining to my situation:

“Those who speak for themselves want glory only for themselves, but a person who seeks to honor the one who sent him speaks truth, not lies.” John 7:18 (NLT)

What I create, I want to co-create with Jesus. It’s His story; it’s His glory. If you’re a creator, I encourage you to create for Him with Him.

My music from 2021 to present is available on my bandcamp page.
