Delicate evolving Ambient track perfect for early summer days.

Looking Out Over Grass

The intro, outro and verse/chorus vocals are AI generated by Ace Studio, remaining vocals are from Splice and I assume are not AI generated.  This will not be officially released, this is just a song challenge.

Are You Still There

C minor, 160 BPM — a contrast between tension and tenderness.
A short drum and bass track written around a whisper: “fast asleep.” Aggressive breaks, sub-heavy bass, and reversed textures collide with fragile, dreamlike vocals.
The reversed vocal was an attempt to create the impression of a language that doesn’t exist — inspired by Coil – Batwings (A Limnal Hymn) and the feeling of voices from a dream you can't quite understand.
The cover art reflects this dissonance: abstract shapes suspended in black, like pieces of a forgotten dream.
No clear meaning. Just a moment between awareness and nothingness.
Created in April 2025 for the TAETRO Garden – Vocals Remix Challenge.

Fast Asleep

are you still there (master)

My contribution to TAETROs  Community Garden Challenge: AI Vocal Edition, using AI-generated vocals.


Dreams & Bass

This track was made for the TAETRO x Ace Studio contest, using vocal stems he provided as a starting point. I down the tempo, reshaped the rhythm into something more dreamlike, and built everything around that — layering in original lyrics, strings, and synth textures to hopefully tell a story of dreams that can be both haunting and comforting. 

Big thanks to TAETRO for the vocal stems, the seeds from which this song grew.

Garden Dreams

I wanted to take the dreamy vibes of the vocal samples and inject them around other rythmic ideas that made sense to my musical ear. This was a fun challenge, hope you enjoy.
