About

This video captures a focused musician creating electronic music in a home studio setting in San Francisco. Directed and photographed by Jake Stangel, the sequence highlights close-up interactions with a drum machine, mixing board, and audio production hardware. Tattoos are visible on the artist's forearms as hands rhythmically tap pads and adjust dials. The room features soft natural lighting filtering through a window, potted plants in the background, and audio monitors on the desk. The intimate documentary-style approach emphasizes the tactile, creative process of music making.
