“Hard Metal Cantüs” (2020)
Album design for American composer and electric guitar soloist D.J. Sparr.

And then our internal place, our world within our own mind, which if you learn to control yourself, you become irresistible… and it also features a nod to Frank Zappa and Henry Cowell.”
- D.J. Sparr
