Paten Locke - Dance on My Grave

The companion album to ‘Americancer’ (2022).

Originally conceived, written, produced, and recorded by Paten himself in the mid 2010’s, the rough collection of experimental/lo-fi-/underground/psychedelic rock & hip hop songs that would eventually become Americancer and Dance on My Grave were more or less finalized in 2017. Yes, Paten prophetically named his magnum opus a full 2 years before he was diagnosed with stage-4 cancer and was swiftly taken from us. It’s almost as if his soul knew before his body did…and before he departed, he left us these instructions:
