Sonic Boom is BACK with a double episode and we're really excited about these: Rob and I re-tuned each others' guitars in secret, and then each of us had to write a song in 90 minutes with a tuning we'd never used.

Each song was a rollercoaster in a totally different way, and we love how they came out. Check out what I wrote on my channel and what Rob did on his channel!

You can download the two songs and they'll also be hitting streaming services soon.

As always, thanks for being a patron!

Sweet. What would you call that genre?

Been seeing "math rock" thrown around a bit. I was also trying to introduce a bit of jazz with the piano, and then the synth adds an electronic touch, so who knows!
