Working on an EP

Working on an EP

Music has always been there. In notebooks, in old drives, in unfinished voice memos that never left my headphones. I’ve had songs living in my head for years. But I never had the right tools or time to get them out in a way that felt like me.

At the same time, I’ve spent my career in tech. I’ve always loved building things, solving problems, finding patterns. But for most of my life, music and technology were two separate tracks. One was the dream. The other was what paid the bills.

Lately, that’s changed. I’ve started using the technology I know to create the music I’ve always wanted to make. Not to automate it. Not to make it easier. But to finally unlock the ideas that have been stuck for years. Tools help me get started. Everything after that is personal.

What I’m working on now is the first complete project to come out of that shift. It’s not perfect. That’s not the goal. These songs were built from fragments, reshaped over time, and left a little rough on purpose. I want them to sound honest, not polished.

The EP is called Split Seams.

That name fits the moment. These tracks are about the period in my life when everything started to come apart in a way that finally made sense. When I stopped following someone else’s idea of what life should look like and started writing my own version. It’s about transition, friction, and small emotional breaks that made space for something new.

Every Felt Rebellion album after this will sound different. I want to keep exploring. Let the music stretch, get strange, fall apart, and re-form. But this EP had to come first. It’s the beginning of the story. The first time the sound in my head became something I could share.

Thanks for being here.
