Honey, no, Daddy's tired, I'm not singing another nursery rhyme... All right, one more song before going to bed, but the last one -- and I choose it, OK? OK. Here goes.

Music-making as therapy, side A: "I'll express my feelings with this wonderful language".
Side B: "ohshitohshitohshit this soundscape has a life of its own now and it's taking me to emotional terrain I was NOT prepared to tread".

Being here reminds me of earlier days of social media, and put me in a mood to re-listen to my music of yore... This is the first track I ever released, nearly 12 years ago; a bit messy, but interesting sounds.

Cuc Phuong forest, Vietnam, a few years ago -- my first time seeing a stick insect in the wild... This elegant individual was as long as my forearm, and as much as I love 🦗🪲, it did creep me out quite a bit at first...
