The Archives Vol 2
It's time to dig in again and start pulling out more of these song archives from my journals and archaic recordings.
Release Date - Sometime in 2026!
The second solo album by Joshua Cabe Johnson layered with distant dark tones and catchy melodies. Another sonically chill album recorded in 432Hz.
