I don't know if this is a genre, but I keep thinking of these tunes as headphone music — one-on-one, emotional, raw, genre-jumping and far from perfect. In a day when AI is soon to top the charts, I don't expect this to be playing in any clubs. It veers towards solitude and a long stare at the ceiling. Conceived in 2023 after a few years growing desert dough, though a handful of these songs go back a decade. A handful are 'city', some are more 'folk'.
