Heyyoo, I dropped my cover of Porter Robinson's 'Cheerleader' today. If you know anything about my musical past, you know it's been a looong, long time since I've put out a cover. I decided to cover this song basically as a learning exercise, since I genuinely love what Porter does and I'm always trying to pick up some new tricks. I think I was able to do exactly that as I was deconstructing this one. Anyways, not sure if there's a whole lot to say about this, other than I hope you like it.

Hey everyone, my debut EP 'Talk No Jutsu' dropped today. It's available everywhere you listen to music. It's obviously been a long time coming, so I appreciate everyone waiting patiently while I figured out some things both creatively and personally. I think this work is a great representation of what I want Mercury Harbor to be: A mix of all of my favorite things, with no compromises. I stopped listening to the inner voice inside of me telling me to not do this or that and just did it. The melodies are catchy. The drums are loud. There's isn't necessarily genre consistency. There's no random ballad in the middle because "every album needs a slow song." This is pretty much just creatively unfiltered me. I hope you like it.
