Here's a somewhat recent release, Flashing Red. I'm not the most expedient poster of my work. It's a very ambient techno track that leans hard on the DX7 (TX-802 rack specifically).

This one features a lot of TX-802, SDR radio samples, Analog RYTM, Modal 002R, Suhr SL68, Analog Keys,  UA, Soundtoys, and Ableton effects, and some vintage digital effects gear (Lex 300, H3000, PCM 81)

And also, here is my newest release as Captive Sky, Entropy. This one has a lot more guitar.

Featured instrumentation: Matrix 1000, Modal 008, Sub 37, NI Razor, Mesa Mark IIB, SL 68, Gibson R0, Analog Rytm, UA & Arturia effects, Stam compressors. Mixed in Cubase w/ a good amount of help from Luna.

I've also started a Discord channel for creating ambient, downtempo, and electronic music, focused on things that tilt towards prog rock. It's not music that is always guitar-driven, but my personal goal has always been to find a way to blend Floyd/Zeppelin/etc with the modern electronic palette, and guitar will always be the instrument closest to me.

It's brand new, so feel free to get involved to share advice, post your productions, and perhaps find collaborators.

I’ve been doing a lot of improv work over Ableton Live sets. I actually did a whole series of Jamuary ones that came out pretty well. Here’s the most recent one, which features a Bludo Drive on the main lead work:

and here’s the collection of Jamuary stuff, which imo isn’t half bad:

No guitar in this one but a new ambient track I did. I really enjoyed it.
