The Cutting Room Floor 3

The Alchemist

A 26-track collage of gritty loops, warped infomercial skits, and underground bars. It feels like flipping through a haunted television in a smoke-filled room.

Find on Amazon

It's like a gritty noir film edited together from thrift store VHS tapes and rare soul 45s.

A surreal, late-night fever dream of urban grit and warped nostalgia.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition from a bizarre 1980s hair product commercial into the heavy, soul-drenched loop of Pool Hall Hustler.
The sprawling five-minute hypnotic groove of The Myth that anchors the middle of the project's frantic pace.
The way the drums on Iron Biscuits feel slightly behind the beat, creating a staggering, drunken rhythmic tension.
