The Adaptive

Excerpts of three songs I created for Planitis Aris EP, a fundraiser release with contributions from @quietsector / @_josephvalentino / @bechillnow / @in_the_branches. The Greek title Πλανήτης Άρης ("planetees arees") translates to Planet Mars. Mars is the Roman counterpart to Ares, the god of war in Greek mythology. -- All proceeds from this EP are donated to organizations that provide medical care/food/supplies directly to war-torn countries.

Warnings of extreme fire danger across the western USA have reminded me to appreciate any time the nearby forests aren't burning. I took this photo in Montana almost exactly five years ago, after driving through apocalyptic smoke-darkness in the middle of the day. There's fuzzy GoPro footage of that drive around here somewhere. -- #montana #wildernessculture #natureaddict #tbt #earthoutdoors #glaciernationalpark https://www.instagram.com/p/CDRxIRrJ3nr/?igshid=1b0rj0bey5haa

Throwbacks and recent captures. A little something to maybe ease the cabin fever, for those of you who are doing the right thing and staying as isolated as possible lately. These were shot in Montana and Oregon. -- #stayhome #savelives #гори #mountains #freedomthinkers #сша #usa #природи #nature #natureaddict https://www.instagram.com/p/B-BUd9MpHW0/?igshid=4jf7vb5j8y4z
