Hello Tonewulf Friends, 2025, what a year! As we reflect on the last year, we have a heart full of gratitude.

It… Read more: Tonewulf 2025 in Review
We have had the opportunity to collaborate on some remixes over the past year. One of these was with “Dear Banshee,” a great sounding band from the Bay area.

Part of producing music is discovering new and interesting tones. Through engaging online I have come into contact with the Banastar, an interesting instrument that is like a 5-string banjo, bass, and guitar. (Check out this semi-hollow electric version).

We humans love equilibrium. We want our edges nice and smooth. The reality of our existence is anything but smooth. There are days that are torrid with depression.

The definite world is bounded and exists with finite possibility. The infinite world is also bounded, but with endless possibility. Our brain has two hemispheres – both necessary, but lead us to different understandings of the world. “The left hemisphere’s goal is to enable us to manipulate things, whereas the goal of the right hemisphere… Read more: Tarkovsky and Speaking of the Infinite World
