A roundup of my best/most well received tracks since joining soundcloud.

Anecdoche - Best Of 2015-2016

I'm releasing these four demos as an EP to sort of put it behind me for now as I move on to new work. Some tracks may be added/improved/extended over time.

Contact

Film Sample: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

"Lyrics"

I'm just exactly... where I wanna be.

I can't do this.
We agreed it's for the best.
Yeah, I know.

I haven't heard that one, it's lovely.
I just thought it would be appropriate maybe.

Stargazer (Triphop)

Film Sample: A Scanner Darkly

"Lyrics"

The whole process is hidden beneath the surface of our reality and will only be revealed later.

Maybe some footnote in a minor history book, a breif mention with no list of the fallen.

Nature (Breaks)

"SYNTHESIZED FAN REVIEW"

The aliens are coming! Jesus!

If you like twisted melodies, heavy cabinet use, tentative voice snipping like someone walking on knives and cool, bright, commanding retro synth streaks, or if you come from similar influence, then you'll love this track.

Just listen to this testimonial: "Interesting! Nice...good! Cool, cool! Great work! Ooh! Awesome! OOh I like it ;)" - My Number One Fan.

Film Sample: Dark City

"Lyrics"

They mix and match our memories as they see fit trying to divine what makes us unique.

Individuality.

Human.

"Lyrics"

Begin to relax. And allow your eyes to close. And as your relax your eyes, and just take a nice deep breath, you can allow yourself to drift.

And I'd like you to imagine that you can see the blue of the sky and feel the warmth of the sun, and now there's really nothing for your conscious mind to do right now, as you continue to journey inwards into total peace; ease and peace throughout your body and mind.

Begin to relax and let go.

And begin to relax more and more, deeper and deeper. Relaxing and releasing. A little deeper. Just easily and peacefully relaxed, unwinding. And feel a sense of peace and calm. It's just draining away. It really doesn't matter.

Completely let go.

Instruments:

Percussion: Standard drum kit (kick, ride and snare), clap.

Stringed/ Other - Full orchestra, emphasis on violins, dramatically slowed grand piano and harp.

I enjoy making sounds using my computer. I am not by any means a refined producer but I hope my original/creative ideas shine through regardless.  I'd hope my tracks come across as ambitious at best. My tracks are not for sale at the moment, are currently used for promotional/entertainment purposes and are typically made free within 2-3 months. I'm open to any collaborations, just PM me. 

I am currently working on: two EPs in a similar vein as my Human/Nature double album (Dopamine [Ambient/Downtempo/Triphop/Breaks] and Adrenaline [Glitchhop/EDM/DnB/Dubstep]), collaborations with https://soundcloud.com/ali-future-8701167434, https://soundcloud.com/dj-m3ta1, https://soundcloud.com/jennymayhem and Laura Brehm, a remix with https://soundcloud.com/lochardmusic, some original tracks with a friend under the name Always Be King and a new singing/songwriting project called Cold Front.
