Explorations is an album I created under the Directionless Vector name in 2021. It was a solo project designed to challenge myself in all aspects of music creation—from composing, writing lyrics, recording, and programming to mixing, mastering, and publishing. It was a pure one man show with no active involvement of anyone else. After years of listening to music with a critical ear, I opened myself up to the critical ears of others.
The music is built on eclectic tastes developed over several decades of exploring the vast realms music has to offer. Inspired by the works of Thy Catafalque, Porcupine Tree, Der Weg Einer Freiheit, Nils Frahm, Anathema, and Sigh, among many others, the album is an intentional blend that weaves together my many musical influences.
