I was the sound designer and engineer for Jordan Tragash’s production of the play Rhinoceros, written by Eugène Ionesco. The play was produced by Second Stage at Wesleyan University and mounted in the Patricelli ’92 Theater during the spring 2018 semester.

For the show’s music, I settled on a mix of genres that juxtapose classical orchestrations with electronic/pop songs to reflect the play’s themes of absurdity and confusion. The score gradually devolves into an amalgamation of rhinoceros sounds, which I produced by pitching down human grunts. For the production’s sound system, I placed subwoofers under the audience’s seating such that the aforementioned rhino sounds would vibrate the entire floor of the theater.

Time Passes is a remake of my first album, To Home this time shorter and different. I tried to make it better, but I really mostly made it shorter and different. Ah well. I tried again later with To Home?? To Home!!, which just features the instrumentals.

Granola is an experimental pop album created NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music during the 2014 Summer High School program. The album is credited to Lola, a group that consisted of myself, Joaquin Friedman, Pavlina Osta, and Jourdan Kelli.

I was the artistic director and primary musician on the project. Joaquin was a co-producer and co-writer, assisting in the completion of several tracks. Pavlina was our chief marketing manager. Jourdan was our photographer and social media manager.

After the album’s release, I self-produced a limited run of physical copies. For fun!

Additional credits:

“Dirk Diggler” features guitar by Will Adler.
“Empty Bowl” features percussion by a NYC street drummer.
“The Outsider” features production by Joaquin Friedman.

2021 December 28

I wrote a concept album, To Home, in 2015 before I graduated from high school. I knew nothing about music production or engineering. I could write faster than I could record—I ended up adding an additional four songs to the album, as well as wrote and recorded tens more that wouldn’t make the cut. I wrote lyrics for the whole album and sang them—my voice wasn’t good, and I grew tired. I released the album in 2015. None of the vocal recordings sounded particularly professional, or refined, or good. I tried again in 2016 by making a shorter, refined version of the same album, this time called Time Passes. That also did not end up particularly good. I still love the underlying songs, though, so I’ve taken out the vocals and extracted the piano recordings. To Home?? To Home!! is a collection of what I played at the time, remastered a bit and put into one place.

To Home is concept album about a failing relationship between Mason and Erin. The story is told from Mason’s perspective and is arranged in five parts that span eighteen songs. The last four songs on the album make up an EP titled More.

The parts are as follows:

One: tracks 1-3
Two: tracks 4-6
Three: tracks 7-10
Four: tracks 11-14
Five: tracks 15-18
More: tracks 19-22

I’m not crazy about this album because I wrote it in high school and would prefer not to hear myself sing. If you’d like to hear the piano instrumentals from To Home, please listen to To Home?? To Home!! instead.

The album cover is an original acrylic painting. While in high school, I self-produced a small run of physical copies that featured 2 CDs and additional artwork. I also created a digital lyrics booklet, which featured the (semi-)original typeface Boxfish Political. I designed this font by modifying all of the letters in another font, Adobe Arabic. I was very proud of all of this at the time.
