CASSINGLE OS 2.0 — MULTIMEDIA CREATIVE HOUSE
A digital home for the strange, the soulful, and the sound-obsessed. Born in Rhode Island's Blackstone Valley and branching far beyond — we're a community of artists, beatmakers, dreamers, historians, and do-it-yourself spirits. This site is our virtual playground.
[ SYSTEM INITIALIZED — ALL PILLARS ONLINE ]
Who We Are
Cassingle Collective is a multimedia creative house founded by Theodore Russell Jordan (Cassingle) — CEO, Catholic, vaporwave producer, and author of 15 books — and Brandon "Noureddine Siddiq" Lee Brunelle (Grim Singmuf) — CCO, Muslim, rapper, theologian, and veteran of the underground hip-hop scene. Based in Rhode Island's historic Blackstone Valley, we operate across music, writing, history, interactive digital tools, and speculative fiction.
Cassingle and Grim Singmuf are the Collective's flagship artists, and their solo work anchors everything we do. Beyond our founders, we publish essays and journalism on technology, theology, and culture. We write alternate histories and weird fiction. We build AI-powered music under the SoundLane project and tell the stories of forgotten Rhode Island communities through The Valley Falls Singers. We make interactive tools — synthesizers, samplers, visualizers, games — because the internet should still be fun. We have comics, illustrated books, zines, and cartoons in active development. And we sell original merch through our Store.
We're open for new artists. If you make music, write fiction, draw comics, or do something we haven't thought of yet — get in touch. Browse our books on Amazon →
