Have you ever been stopped dead in your tracks by something that, in retrospect, seems like it should have been very obvious, but hadn't occurred to you at the time? And then you find yourself reflecting, rethinking your entire approach and wondering how you'd gotten to such a state that you'd overlook something so important, so fundamental, so vital? Yeah. That's Reconsiderate.
All perceptions, thoughts, opinions, strategies, memories and et cetera are based upon axioms-- assertive assumptions that cannot be proven. For Reconsiderate, the most inspirational experience is one that shatters these axioms and leaves him in a place that is unfamiliar and unstable, yet lucid and real. Such experiences remind him that absolutely anything is possible, and that he plays a role in determining what comes to pass in his life. This is the fundamental concept around which Reconsiderate's thoughts are based, and toward which his work in music and other media strives.
Reconsiderate's music sounds a bit like Bjork and John Linnell (from They Might Be Giants) got together and had a baby, but then it got orphaned in some terrible accident, only to be picked up and raised by Tool. People usually describe it as "unusual", "unique", "weird" or something along those lines. But, really, he's just making music the way music is supposed to be made: completely at random with little to no foresight of what will follow.
Technically speaking, Reconsiderate writes and mixes everything on his computer, often in a loop-based style. He enjoys playing with a variety of scales, time signatures and layouts. Some of the songs are instrumental, while others have lyrics. In those with lyrics, the words are delivered in a half-sung, half-spoken style, and tend to have a somewhat hard or ironic edge.
Here at Planet Pulse, Reconsiderate is assuming the mantle of "contributing writer". No one really knows what that means, but we're all about to find out...

"Reconsiderate's music is as original as it gets, and a lot of people need to hear it."
--Singer/songwriter Kevin Gianni
You've also got the option to purchase my CD, Niche Work. You'll get the physical compact disc, the audio on which is of higher quality than the mp3 downloads, as well as the artwork/packaging that comes with it, plus a few extra tracks that aren't available anywhere online. And, of course, you'll be encouraging me to continue making my "weird music", utlimately sharing more of it with you in the future.
Regardless of which option you decide is best for you, I hope you enjoy my music as much as I do, which is a lot. ;o) And, of course, I encourage you to share the songs freely with your family and friends.
Niche Work CD available! www.reconsiderate.com
