I’m releasing my second EP, Saturnity, as Taylor J Hawkins, on August 10th, 2022.

The material was recorded this year (2022), with Reaper, my current DAW, in my home studio.

The intention of this EP was to take a further step towards a metal sound with the nylon guitar, more so than with Astral Logical. It was also an exercise in taking a more thoughtful approach compositionally, where I spent more time composing and arranging in MuseScore, before moving to the DAW.

The microphone used for the EP was an S-87 that I soldered together from MicParts.

EP List:

• Orpheus
• Mourning Star
• Saturnity
• The Gods
