Ascension flips Katerina Lomis’ “Ladies’ Room” into a bold, wubby, experimental dubstep remix—keeping the song’s emotional edge while pushing it into heavier territory. Ascension produces crystal-clear, razor-sharp sound design on this remix, turning the alt original into something darker, louder, and unmistakably Ascension.

What do i know

ARIRANG

Body to Body

Just a rough, unmixed, unmastered demo tossed together on a whim last night. You know - One of those things that was created at midnight when you can't shut your mind off. Inspired by an old song about realigning life to come closer to how you once dreamt it would be. 

C'mon baby, In these coming days, let's run away to where we want to stay, I don't want to live my life right here. I just want to runaway, why don't we go to a lace that we can call home. How you see right through me, this hollow man I can be - tell me it's time to realign. 

Hollow Man

[Intro]
City static… pressure in my skull…
Millions of souls crushed in concrete jaws, full throttle.
[Verse 1]
Gray concrete jungle, no compass, no map,
Days bleed together like Novocain in the trap.
Time got me in a chokehold, routine on repeat,
Red lights on the crosswalk, green in the feed.
Same damn loop — morning brew, evening defeat,
System screams “fit in” but I was built to delete.
Thousands sleepwalking through somebody else’s script,
I chose the blade — cut my own path, no guilt, no quit.
Against the current, lungs burning, veins on fire,
Thorns in my feet but the vision getting clearer, higher.
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind straight slapping when you swim upstream,
One-man army in a kingdom built on schemes.
I picked my lane — no U-turn, no retreat,
Fold right now and I lose the only thing that’s me.
[Chorus]
Against the current! Against the machine!
In this counterfeit world I’m rewriting the scene.
Voice hit like lightning, split the concrete clean,
Heart drum in my chest to the future I’ve seen.
Against the current — I will not break!
Solo in the war but my knees never shake.
Truth is my armor, belief is the blaze,
I stand till the flame eats the end of my days!
[Verse 2]
Society brands you if your mind don’t comply,
Status, cash, clout — that’s their favorite lie.
They trade decades at the altar of the climb,
Chasing validation, losing soul one like at a time.
Likes for love, numbers for friends,
Highway packed but every car’s in its own dead end.
Fear of rejection keeps the leash on tight,
I snapped the chain, stood up and I bite.
Call me crazy in their blindfolded parade,
I’d rather burn bright than fade in the shade.
This rap’s my confession, my war cry in the mist,
While I breathe — my voice stays venomous, clenched fist.
[Chorus]
Against the current! Against the machine!
In this counterfeit world I’m rewriting the scene.
Voice hit like lightning, split the concrete clean,
Heart drum in my chest to the future I’ve seen.
Against the current — I will not break!
Solo in the war but my knees never shake.
Truth is my armor, belief is the blaze,
I stand till the flame eats the end of my days!
[Bridge]
They whisper “settle, accept your role,”
I laugh in their face — “Give me the storm, not the hole.”
Better blaze out fighting than freeze in the quiet,
Better be the scar than the shadow on the diet.
Let ‘em misunderstand, let ‘em judge, let ‘em forget,
History only remembers the ones who reset.
[Verse 3]
Standing on the cliff edge, clearest I’ve ever been,
Nothing left to lose — that’s when you finally win.
I’m scripting my legend line by line in this verse,
Word after word, I’m becoming something worse than they rehearsed.
Rise from the ashes, phoenix with scorched wings,
Every scar on my chest taught me new kings.
Lone wolf in a flock of sheep wearing wolf masks,
That’s how real soldiers forge — no shortcuts, no fast track.
My life is the song, my message is the blade,
Till the last breath I ride — no pretty fade.
Against the current till my lungs give out cold,
Soul ain’t for sale — that’s the only code I hold.
[Final Chorus]
Against the current! Against the machine!
In this counterfeit world I’m the glitch in the dream.
Voice hit like thunder, crack the sky at the seam,
Heart drum in my chest — this truth’s gonna redeem.
Against the current — I stand like a fault line!
World can break before I ever realign.

No U-Turn

[Verse 1]
Locked in this grind cage, prisoner with no release date
Pressure chokin’ my neck, clock hits zero, soul on the late
Brain boilin’ in the flames, notifications burnin’ my eyes
But I clench my teeth, hold the fire, turn pain into my rise
Tasks stackin’ like bricks on my chest, one wrong move — collapse
They keep pushin’ “urgent”, I laugh, this the ultimate trap
Everybody around me drownin’ in the same endless stream
But I’m built different — iron will, watch the underdog redeem

[Chorus]
I WON’T BURN OUT! Fire slappin’ my face, I still grin
Won’t get crushed by this trivial noise, I flip the script and win
Breakin’ out this vicious cycle, chains snap, I’m free again
Stronger! Harder! Every single day I level up, amen!

[Verse 2]
They keep pilin’ demands while the world waits for me to break
Even rest time disappear like smoke, nothin’ left in the wake
Thoughts in chaos, nerves tighter than wires ‘bout to snap
Everybody droppin’ like flies, but I’m the last one standin’ on the map
Notifications at 3 AM, hustle culture taxin’ my soul
They want my peace for likes and coins, nah — I’m takin’ back control
Clock tickin’ louder than my heartbeat, but I flip the hourglass
Turn this daily prison to my personal warpath, no lookin’ back

[Chorus]
I WON’T BURN OUT! Fire slappin’ my face, I still grin
Won’t get crushed by this trivial noise, I flip the script and win
Breakin’ out this vicious cycle, chains snap, I’m free again
Stronger! Harder! Every single day I level up, amen!

[Bridge]
My life ain’t their property, stop tryna lease my mind
My peace ain’t currency, y’all can’t trade it for your grind
I’m snatchin’ back my spirit, wholeness, every piece I left behind
This the greatest victory — watch me rise while the system stay blind!

[Final Chorus]
I WON’T BURN OUT! (nah!) Fire slappin’ my face, I still grin
Won’t get crushed by this trivial noise, I flip the script and win
Broke the cycle, vicious no more, I’m the glitch in the matrix
Stronger! Harder! Every single day — I BECOME THE KING, period!

I won’t burn out v3 neo soul

I set up to play in my new home for the first time. A single line that has been on repeat in my mind wanted to be expanded on, and this is what it turned into. I will someday give it the attention it deserves. But this track was captured in the very moment the song was born, and the authenticity and rawness behind every misstep and mistake, is exactly what it is meant  to embody. So slow down and stay a while with me. We have to be here, to be here. 

I know what it feels like to lose it all you see. It's like watching everything you've ever worked for just crumble at your feet. 

But, I know, what it feels like to be in love you see. 
it feels like everything you've ever wished for coming ot you in ways you've never seen.
it feels like everything you've ever wished for, comes to you in ways you can't believe

and I know what it feels like to lose it all you see, its watching everything you've ever worked for crumble at your feet..

But I love the way you love me..

What it feels like

The way you take your time
Like you already know
You never ask for more
Than what I chose to show
Your hands don't rush a thing
They read before they move
I gave you all the words
You already knew

You don't need to prove a thing
You just have to stay

I want you certain
I want you slow
I want you knowing
Everywhere to go
I want you present
Heavy in the room
I want you taking
Everything I give to you

The quiet that you hold
Is louder than the rest
You pull without a sound
I give without a test
Nobody reads a room
The way that you do
I didn't choose to stay
I chose to stay with you

You don't need to prove a thing
You just have to stay

I want you certain
I want you slow
I want you knowing
Everywhere to go
I want you present
Heavy in the room
I want you taking
Everything I give to you

(Stay)
You're the reason I unlocked the door
(Stay)
You're the reason I keep coming back for more
Not the surrender
You're what makes it worth it
(Every time)

(All yours)
(By choice)
(All yours)

The Reason

Applesede is an emerging underground artist drifting between lo-fi, ambient electronic, and indie pop—creating hazy, immersive soundscapes that feel half-remembered and deeply felt. Rooted in bedroom pop and experimental production, the music blends soft beats, reverb-drenched vocals, and minimal textures into something both intimate and distant.

Little is known about Applesede, and that’s intentional. Each track arrives like a fragment—unpolished, atmospheric, and guided more by instinct than structure. The result sits somewhere between chillwave, lo-fi hip hop, and ambient music, resonating with listeners drawn to quiet emotion, late-night moods, and introspective spaces.

Songs like “Waisting My Time” move slowly, embracing stillness and repetition, allowing meaning to surface naturally rather than forcing it. It’s music that exists in the background until it suddenly doesn’t—subtle, cinematic, and quietly heavy.

Appearing across platforms like SoundCloud and streaming services, Applesede continues to grow through organic discovery, connecting with fans of ambient, lo-fi, indie electronic, and bedroom pop.

For those searching for something soft, strange, and hard to place—Applesede is already there.
