Heavy bass, pulsing synths, soothing vocals and tender vibes.

Home Alone is the passion project of self-proclaimed "agoraphobic with an empathy addiction," Charlie Wood.

In the constant struggle to challenge his own status quo, Home Alone's prime directive is the attempt to create beautiful music. However, pulling beauty from the void is no easy task, and the drawing board is a frequently recurring character for Home Alone.

While at its core Home Alone is "industrial R&B," influences are drawn from a broader spectrum: "Debussy to Daft Punk." although citing a diverse palette, Home Alone is not overly serious or somber. An underlying theme of self-satire adds a tongue-in-cheek accessibility to the music.

No laptop is used in Home Alone's composition or performing, just two drum machines, a synthesizer, sequencer, mixer, compressor, vocal pedal and mic.
