about

"The MIDI Pillow" was conceived and composed as a "Music to fall asleep to" record, although it's physical release never occurred. The album's sound and flow were researched and mapped to hold the listener at the edge of sleep for as long as possible - the interesting time where active thoughts blend into dreams.
