about

A cosmic exploration of various celestial bodies from moons to far-away galaxies. Inspired by the interplanetary jazz of Sun Ra, with a rockist bent. Featuring the inimitable Hexifice on basses and cello, the legendary Naythen Wilson on electric guitar, and me on keyboards (virtual Novachord and Solovox). Alternately spacey, bracing, and wild.

by pervert princess

Brutally honest yet beautiful, tackling sexuality with a disarming lo-fi aesthetic. C.W. Franz

unbearably light
