  • MUSIC VIDEO: Imissacid

    I produced music tracks quicker than I could produce videos. The result: my recent attempt to travel back in time through the BADBOOB discography and upload music videos.

  • Are You Pissed Yet? EP – OUT NOW!

    Resistance is a funny thing. Resistance? In modern psychoanalysis resistance is a fundamental roadblock in treatment and maturity. A right of passage. A refusal to deal with negative emotions. An avoidance, typically of anger. However the appearance of the avoidance depends on the person. Sex, drugs, alcohol, eating, gambling, isolation, relationship codependency, skipping therapy sessions.…

  • BLOG: Migration Malfunctions

    If you dropped by THEBADBOOB.com in the last few days, you were likely confused and met with a fresh white page with broken links, no pictures, and a website void of the broody, cyberpunk landing zone I spent over a year creating. In my last post, I mentioned a migration process from wordpress.com to wordpress.org.…

  • BLOG: FINE ART

    I’ve been lazy updating my blog. Lazy uploading the latest art pieces, animations, EP’s, videos, etc. Too much time is focused on Meta’s instagram or Twitter’s X. Websites that aren’t my own turf. The whole point of building a website was creating something OF MY OWN. The difficulty of censorship increases when somebody’s not bound…

  • NAIVE-EXPRESSIONISM EP – OUT NOW!

    I wrote this EP after a month break from Ableton. After experiencing problems with my hard drives, I took a rest-bit from technology and focused on paintings, drawings, pastels, and videography.

  • SHORT STORY: Road Trip

    (Short story from 2016, Junior Year at Ohio University)  A sugar maple emerges from the Appalachia, casting a perfect shadow over a crossed-legged figure resting in the shade. In this patch of cool isolation, the lotus figure draws yawning breaths, expanding the cavities of his lungs, until the very point of consciousness withers into a tranquil departure. The figure repeats the rhythm, eyes sealed shut; gently fading the tone of the Pennsylvania highway and the constant anxieties,…

    (Short Story was written in 2015, Sophomore Year at Ohio University) ​Ethan detached the water pipe from the embrace of his lips and exhaled, observing as the smoke ascended into a blanket of developing stratus clouds. He enjoyed watching individual wisps of smoke twist and sputter into shapes before dissipating. It was sweet and abstract – numbing yet sensational. Across the room, The Flaming Lips’ propelled “Fight Test” through a pair…

  • SHORT-SHORT STORT: Yogurt Factory

    In college, I hated writing because of a narcissistic professor who hated my dark and disturbing writings; and to a degree, resented my abilities as a writer. Joan tried to beat the pen out of my hand. Bad grades, incoherent after-class advice, a lack of constructive feedback, and an obvious avoidance problem. After a few…

  • SHORT STORY: PARANOID

    (This short story was written 2015, Sophomore Year at Ohio University) A brittle moonlight excelled above the horizon, pinning the silhouette of a shrouded figure against the dimness of the apartment’s back alleyway. With each advancing step, beads of sweat pounded profusely from the pores of my brow. A menacing ache slithered through my ribs and into my gut. I rapidly shifted my wrist into view, and darted my…

    “What in the fuck?!!1” I said after listening to the latest J.Lang EP, Protonoid. What a gloriously glitched out and galactic ride.

    With the Tired Tape EP, I took a minimalist approach, rediscovering influences like The Haxan Cloak, Raime, and Hecq. The IDM, dark ambient side of music.
