New Album – Desire

New Album – Desire *
Desire is my 12-song journey through new wave, psychedelic rock, and experimental sound. Blending hypnotic melodies, atmospheric textures, and emotionally driven songwriting, the album explores love, memory, connection, and the search for meaning.
I created Desire through Sun Cult, my project as a composer and multi-instrumentalist. Drawing from my California roots and time in Berlin, I combined psychedelic guitars, electronic elements, organic instrumentation, and cinematic production to create a sound that feels both nostalgic and modern.
“The music feels immersive, hypnotic, and deeply soulful. I find myself playing this album over and over throughout the day, always discovering new layers and emotions. Beautiful, transportive, and unforgettable.” – Bandcamp listener
