A Year of HOUSE OF RESONANCE

-

Today marks one year since the founding and launch of HOUSE OF RESONANCE.

It’s honestly wild to look back. We began with two singles, “Trust In You” and “NOT THE END,” then came the collaborations, our first EP, higher ground., and, just a few weeks ago, our first full-length album, SIMPLE THINGS.

But what makes me proud isn’t simply the catalogue. It’s the space we’ve created around the music.

From the beginning, I wanted HOUSE OF RESONANCE to make room for worship that could live beyond the Sunday service. I love corporate worship and the church, but I also believe people encounter God in their bedrooms, cars, commutes, quiet moments, grief, healing, creativity, and everyday lives.

I wanted to make music that could meet people there.

Music that carries faith without being confined to one sound or expectation. Music that can be soulful, alternative, intimate, experimental, honest, or simple—and still create room for an encounter with God.

A year ago, HOUSE OF RESONANCE was an idea. Today, it’s a body of work, a growing catalogue, and a creative space with its own identity.

And I’m genuinely proud of that.

Proud that we’ve created a place where we can explore. Proud that the songs can resonate beyond the spaces they were originally written for. And proud that, hopefully, they give someone else permission to encounter God a little differently.

One year down. The house is only getting started.

Why I Use AI in Music Production (And Why It Doesn’t Replace the Heart of It)

-
Music is evolving. Not just in sound, but in how it is created. And like every shift in creative history .... from analog to digital, from live bands to DAWs, new tools always raise the same question: does this make the art less real? For me, the answer is clear. No, not when the human remains the source. I don’t use AI to replace creativity. I use it to extend it. At its core, music production is about translating emotion into sound, shaping ideas into experience, and guiding a listener through something they can feel. AI-assisted tools allow me to explore sonic textures faster, prototype ideas in real time, and push beyond certain technical limitations. But the intention, the message, and the emotional direction still start with me. Every record I create begins with conviction, with melody, with something I need to communicate. From there, AI becomes part of the workflow, not the origin. I write or co-write the song, define the emotional arc, direct the vocal delivery, and shape the ...

AI doesn't create taste. It reveals whether you have any!

AI isn't the problem. What AI really does is amplify whatever level of taste, skill, and judgment is already there. I think that's especially true in music. There are genuinely great songs and records being made with AI-assisted tools right now. The difference isn't the technology itself. It's who's behind it and how they're using it. When AI-generated music falls short, it usually comes down to one of two things. First, some people hand over the entire creative process to the AI. They don't write the songs, shape the arrangements, or make intentional creative choices. They rely on weak prompts, accept whatever comes back, and end up with generic, forgettable music. Second, some people simply haven't learned the fundamentals of making records. AI can generate sounds, but it can't replace an understanding of arrangement, dynamics, pacing, tension and release, emotional impact, or storytelling. Those things still matter, regardless of the tools being u...

AI, Worship, and the Question of Stewardship

-
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future concept, it is a present reality reshaping every industry, including music, creativity, and faith-based expression. The question before us is not whether AI will be used, but how it will be stewarded,  and what it reveals about our convictions in the process. I am firmly in support of AI as a collaborative tool — in music production and across industries. I am also a champion of innovation. History shows us that progress is rarely comfortable at first, but it is often necessary. At the same time, innovation without responsibility creates fragility. This is the tension we must hold well. Unlike previous technological shifts, AI is unprecedented in both its capability and speed. It doesn’t simply distribute content; it can generate it. This forces us to confront deeper questions about authorship, formation, and intention — particularly within worship, where the sacred and the creative intersect. Tools Have Always Been Part of Worship ...
