This is my single in collaboration with my talented SoundCloud friend Volt5000 (@volt5000). We decided to keep it exclusively and freely available here on SoundCloud under the title of “Disturbed Planet". The single contains 2 tracks, ordered chronologically, and also fitting conceptually. Its duration is 19 minutes. The single was composed, recorded and mixed in MAGIX (by Volt5000) and GarageBand iOS and Logic Pro X (by Alex M) between 25 December 2020 and 27 January 2021. It was released on SoundCloud (with some delay, in wait for possible other tracks) on 3 August 2021.

The artwork cover, that is also used for the two constituent tracks, is based on a photo taken by Alex M on 8 August 2020 (by unintended coincidence, almost precisely a year ago) and then cropped and annotated by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 10 January 2021.

Thank you so much, Volt5000, for these two beautiful and richer collaborative versions of each of the original compositions - one by you and the other by me!

Disturbed Planet - Volt5000 & Alex M

Volt5000 (@volt5000) and I are glad to present our collaborative version of his recent track "Disturbed Planet". It will be the 1st track in our single in progress under the title "Disturbed Planet", which we intend to complete soon during the year that just started, 2021. We hope you'll enjoy this longer, more varied, version of ours too!

The artwork cover, that will also be used for our single in progress and its constituent tracks, is based on a photo taken by Alex M on 8 August 2020 and then cropped and annotated by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 10 January 2021.

Created in collaboration on 5 January 2021 (initial mix and recording in MAGIX by Volt5000) and 9 January 2021 (final mix and recording in Logic Pro X by Alex M), and posted on SC on 10 January 2021 (by Alex M).

Disturbed Planet (Collaborative Version) - Volt5000 & Alex M

Volt5000 (@volt5000) I are now glad to present our collaborative version of my recent track "The Moonlit Snow-White Mountain" (https://soundcloud.com/alexander-mihailov-96713983/the-moonlit-snow-white-mountain). It will be the 2nd track in our single under the title "Disturbed Planet", which we intend to release on SoundClound later on 2021. We hope you'll enjoy this longer, more varied, version of ours too! Volt5000 has added vocal samples from MAGIX, and extended beautifully the initial track into rhythmic but also relaxing developments.

The Moonlit Snow-White Mountain (Collaborative Version) - Volt5000 & Alex M

I have always admired music, of diverse styles. Like most of us, I have tried learning to play a few instruments at a basic level in my teenage. But it is only now, in the 21st century, that modern software allows anyone to fool around being the composer, the designer of a whole composition, simpler or more complex, organising together the parts of the various instruments - and to hear the results of this experimentation or inspiration instantly! That is how I have recently begun enjoying the distraction of attempts at composing during my leisure, discovering an amazing dimension of life, and art, perhaps the most intangible, heightening and hypnotising one, and the closest to the soul... (21 August 2017) ... Forgot to mention: music is for sharing - that's why we are all here! (4 September 2017)
