This track is definitely something different from the normal DNB tracks I make. During quarantine, I was dealing with lots of anxiety, and some days, the intensity of Drum and Bass music was just not what I was looking to hear. This track flowed, and created itself it felt like, and it seemed so natural to make it. While I will always love and tend to focus on the hard hitting, more chaotic sounds of Drum and Bass music, there will always be room for lush, healing sounds as well. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did making it. Thank you everyone for your support!

LYRICS:
Don’t think I can cry
Don’t think I can cry anymore
Don’t think I can cry
Don’t think I can cry anymore

Don’t think I can
Don’t think I can cry more
Don’t think I
Don’t think I can cry

Tired of saying goodbye
I’m tired of saying goodbye

Eyes are heavy with
Eyes are heavy with wet
My eyes are heavy
Eyes are heavy and wet
Oh my eyes are heavy
Eyes are heavy with wet

Legs are bending
Knees are caving
(I’m falling)
My heart is caving
Legs are bending
(I’m grieving)

Shadows (Mouthless Yelling Into the Void)

OMG, my modular synth thinks it's a guitar hero! Send help!

Patch notes:

The guitar lines (clean, distorted and reversed) initially came from a Mutable Instruments Rings, sequenced by a Makenoise Rene. The X axis on the Rene was synchronized with the beat via a signal sent from Cubase via Silent Way, one of my Apollos and an Expert Sleepers ES3. The Y axis was clocked by the burst output on a Wogglebug. I was playing the sequencer, rings and Wogglebug via their controls. Audio was recorded from the modular via an ES6.

As for the rest of the track, some of the drums were programmed in Cubase, the rest played by hand (djembe, congas and extra kick/snare fills) on a Roland HPD-20. The bass is actually me playing a Chapman Stick (for realz! Gosh, the shock of the thing!), plugged into the HI-Z ins on one of the Apollos. The synth pads are a custom patch on my Roland JP-8080, noodled real-time.

The mix uses a metric assload of UAD plugins -- SSL channel strips pretty much everywhere, a couple of Shadow Hills mastering compressors (ab)used for various things, several Lexicon 224 instances gave us all the reverb. Delays were just the simple ping-pong delay that ships with Cubase by default. This isn't really a properly mastered thing, it's just the UAD SSL bus compressor into the UAD precision limiter.

This was all a bit of fun, mostly just testing new (and very old) equipment. And the first time I've played bass on something in years, particularly in terms of Stick. :-)

One Ring

Can’t forgive
Can’t forget
Can’t forgive
My hands

Can't forgive
Can’t forget 
Can’t forgive
The blood on my hands

Can’t forgive
Can’t forget
Can’t forgive
The blood 

I can’t forgive, I promise you
I can’t — I won’t forget you my love
For you are bleeding on me

I can’t forget - 
for your blood it’s all over me
Oh, my love
Your blood is all over me


I know, I know

My love, you are bleeding
My love, you are bleeding on me
My love, you are bleeding
My love, your blood is all over me
