Chuck W. Dot Com

The Song in Every Six Series was a personal challenge tied into a song competition, where I was the only contestant every 45 days.

This means that for nearly two years I released a full-fledged, studio-mastered Single every month and a half. You will see the titles plastered all over any profile if you visit on any streaming service. In the end there were twenty-four volumes released in this way. 

Guitar is my most recent EP from 2023. Upon buying a crummy Fender Telecaster, my adoration for the electric six string was re-ignited. Within this EP you will hear my signature synth-punk style beneath a mountain of reverb, delay, loops and shoegaze inspiration.

Timekeepers is an EP of mine from 2022. It is a quirky, jaunty number which clocks in at a shorter than average run time among other works in the catalog. What it dismisses with time, it does not do the same for each songs personality and melody. Timekeepers features some of the catchiest hooks heard on a Chuck W. release to date.

Anxiety Rock (2021) is a personal favorite and features a star-studded cast of fellow musicians on several guest tracks. During a period of COVID-19 lockdown, Anxiety Rock was a way which I could still go on a world tour without ever leaving my apartment.

HMDBC II (2021) is the hardware-synthesizer based counter-part piece to the Heavy Metal Dust Bunny Cynicism EP. The inspiration of finding something new in the Arturia collection and soft-synths generally is transposed in the other direction for this album where modular takes over.

Heavy Metal Dust Bunny Cynicism EP (2021) – This EP began to formulate following a fortuitous purchase of a popular VST suite. After falling in love with the soft-synths that the Arturia Collection provides, I looked down at my DAW and realized I was only a mix and master away from a release.

Also, it warrants mentioning that this EP has its very own mascot, DB the Dust Bunny. DB can be seen hanging out in the bottom-righthand corner of the cover but don’t ever lend him your car keys.

Small World (2020) – My second album is a strange one. It was written during a time of recovery from health issues. It dives into a sea of agoraphobia, claustrophobia, anxiety and depression, while making sure to provide a heavy nod toward dark humor, cynicism and sarcasm. It’s kind of F’d up, if being honest.

Get Your Shit Together! (2019) was my first studio release. I can’t believe that as I sit here writing this description it is only three months from being the FIVE YEAR anniversary of the release of this album.

To those that have listened, I want to take another opportunity to thank you for doing so!

Get Your Shit Together! is an experimental romp which followed a bad car accident through a lab’s worth of gear, while equipped with more samples than I knew what to do with. Subsequently, the end product is mixed entirely with one arm.
