Album notes from Rob:
Themes on the album range from my awesome baby girl, interesting travel, falling in love (an updated song I composed for my wife before we were engaged), to dealing with strife. The album is mainly about rebuilding, growing and becoming a parent, but it also has a universal aspect. With the current economic crisis, the title and theme hold a lot of relevance. We have all faced and continue to face tough times. My hope is that this album provides a sense of strength and renewal. Enjoy!

Return - Remix EP

The mixing genius, allMeadow, sampled three of Rob's songs and created this relaxing downtempo adventure. We're looking forward to working more with allMeadow in the future.
Return to Flat Rock (5:36)
Fruitful (4:58)
Respect (3:50)
"Return to Flat Rock" samples "True Gemini"

"Respect" samples "Family"
Album notes from Rob:
The world of podcasting brought allMeadow and my music together. I'm a big fan of trance, techno and downtempo. This EP was a test.
The result is we broke some new ground (at least for me) and I'm extremely pleased how the remixes came out. A new way to listen to piano.
The EP has been exclusively released to digital networks.

Lyrics to "Return to Flat Rock" (sung by allMeadow):

Mastering by Bill Dooley
Album notes from Rob:
I recorded Woods of Chaos in HD at 192kHz - 24 bit. The songs are meant to be loud and more in your face. The album is a reflection of my battles, successes and determination to move forward. There is a lot of venting exemplified with intense and heavy notes throughout the songs. I'm not scared anymore. The "Woods of Chaos" will always be there, but I'm able to overcome the beasts and find peace. Please create your own experience with each song.
