I had absolutely no idea how this project would turn out when I started it almost 1 year ago. 

Fluctuations is the portrait of my inability to express and develop consistent musical ideas. Today, I feel super liberated to have been able to take, more or less consciously, the decision to embrace this "handicap" and live with it.

Hope you'll enjoy this little trip :)))

Fluctuatuions

Fluctuations

At deaths door the alchemist trembles.
Air to lead and light to dust.
One day for the eternal farewell.

Herbs and salts are his family, flasks and tubes are his friends.
Two potions you’d drink once, in reality it’s only one.
Epiphany or insanity?

Potions

At last, after a few directionless years, I'm finally back with new music! I participated in the remix competition for Stasys' song "Serenade," and this is what I came up with.

The intro was initially very different, going straight into a minimal drum rhythm, though I eventually realized it wouldn't work. When I searched the stems for alternative ideas, the background lead that plays during the original's "drop" immediately stood out to me, and it inspired the cinematic intro and progression you can hear now. Working with the melodic material from Serenade was an interesting challenge, since I don't typically write in this melodic style. The last third of the first drop is probably one of my favorite parts of this remix, as it features a bit of chromatic movement.

Most of my bass design is pretty simple, since I habitually only use init sine and saw waves for some reason... 🙃

In the second drop, I experimented with some 5/16 rhythms, which I'm surprised I haven't ever heard anywhere else before (at least to my knowledge lol). This is also probably the first time I've pulled off what I consider "proper" DnB, strongly utilizing 16th-note ticking percussion and even stabbing basses.

When writing the lyrics, I wanted to expand on Stasys' idea of these "pilgrims" discovering this new land, and possibly asking themselves why they traveled here. I intended to write a more substantial set of lyrics, but I unfortunately couldn't since the contest's deadline was becoming tighter and tighter. I actually finished this remix during a vacation quite far from my home state, and I took my Mac and even my microphone to finish recording the lyrics in my hotel rooms. I'm still surprised I managed to pull through with my remix and finish it despite my circumstances.

Lyrics:
"Why are you here?
Amid these handmade everglades
Looking for your dreams
Looking at them dance in serenade
~
Looking for your dreams
Looking at them dance in serenade"

Stasys - Serenade (BLOKBUSTR Remix)

bandcamp

Hudson Lee & voljum - Sunflower

introducing EP3: global tourist assembly.

a celebration of time spent travelling.

out november 20th 2024.

this ep is about my travels to the u.s., visiting and making music with some of my best friends; the results of the current election stand in total opposition to this. my dream of obtaining a visa to perform in the states will become much more difficult than it already is. moreover, extremist policies will (and have) spread in governments around the world as a result of this election.

my heart goes out to everyone who will inevitably be affected by this. i hope my ep can provide something positive to connect with. i stand with all of my friends and listeners in the u.s. and around the world, we will continue to create and consume art through it all. thank you.

@crumb

the second single from global tourist assembly, "arbor lumia theme" is out.

getting to play one of my first shows was a really defining time for me and ended up deeply influencing my priorities both in my artistic and every day life.

i got to meet so many of my friends i've spoken to for years online and we all bonded further over our connection to music and art.

this track was created specifically for the arbor lumia event in 2022 and completed towards the beginning of the following year. 

happy listening!

MockBravado - Talk to Me

The Resonance Theory continues its exploration of quantum soundscapes with "Dans le Bitume" — a relentless fusion of French urban poetry and cutting-edge neurofunk production. This track represents a new direction in experimental electronic music, where Parisian street energy meets dystopian bass design.
