ALBUMS:
Sam Koch – Long Nights in the Land of Lights
My newest album. All written, recorded and produced in my apartment in Maine. I tried a variety of production techniques, as well as methods of songwriting. I tried to incorporate many different elements into every song well at the same time maintaining a solid narrative and voice through my lyrics. This album was born out of isolation, but also out of joy and inspiration. The cover is a painting of mine.

The Full – Length album by Paugus (Sam Koch and Sam Kestenbaum). Songs composed by both of us with drum machines, synthesizers, and samplers. Sam Koch singing and production. Call it haze pop, hip -hop, alternative funk, indie, whatever. It’s Paugus.

Sam Koch – Desolation EP
Another EP of mine with a lot of electronic elements, but also a good amount of guitar. Still beat – driven, but with a folky vibe. I wrote and produced these songs while living in Maine in the winter, and I think that environment is reflected in the music.
