Artists are warriors⚔️of a sort—we feel fear trying to control us yet we continue to create & slay our demons. Inspired by Joan of Arc, The Legend of Zelda, & a personal hero’s journey. I’m excited to share my next #collab! “Do it Anyway” with German-American prog-rockers 12 Below!

Written by Kate Stanton
Arranged and Produced by 12 Below

Look around you
foreign land
a language you don't understand
all alone
take a deep breath
feel it in your soul
you know (you know)
that you know
so
let's take a little journey 
inside ourselves

Do you think the hero feels the same?
but they go and do it anyway.
Do you think the coward feels the same?
much like the hero
does it anyway
just do it anyway

Beneath the cave 
there lies a tool
it's round yet taut
too sharp for fools
focused on the need to finish
wield your weapon low
diminish. Heal.
The threat's got no hold on you
take what you can from her land
she is enough and knows it now
twists the fabric
snaps back in time
Let's take a little journey
outside ourselves

Do you think the hero feels the same?
but they go and do it anyway.
do you think the coward feels the same?
much like the hero
does it anyway
just do it anyway

Do it anyway
Do it anyway...

Do you think the hero feels the same?
but they go and do it anyway.
do you think the coward feels the same?
much like the hero
does it anyway
just do it anyway...

Do It Anyway (with 12 Below)

Everlasting Flowers

Wish You'd Give is from my debut EP called Maintenant.
I instantly fell for a cute little guitar line which during improv gave way to a fully formed concept and melody and, bar a few tweaks and refinement, it pretty much wrote itself. I’d been thinking for some time around my experiences of seeing how people can do an excellent job of putting up walls for protection that ultimately only serve to keep oneself limited and how this seems an incredible waste and a ridiculous thing to do. It’s a song about loving another person and wanting the very best for them. I’m coming to the opinion that we all need to give more.

Wish You'd Give

This mix is for Everybody Who like Me, Is Sick to Death of Working in a Job that they Hate, for a Boss that only cares about Money!!!!!!!

  One Day, Our Time Will Come, Love And Peace, From Jake!

I'm seriously struggling to comprehend just what the fuck is happening to me!!!
Not sure if there might be someone or something else living inside me!!!  Not in a possessed way I might add, although that would explain what happens to me when I drink too much! Lol
I think I may have realised a bit too much recently, or maybe done far too much Ketamine!!!  It doesn't pay to know too much, and really, a person only needs to know anything, if they need to use the knowledge for practical reasons! 🤪

What The Fuck Is Happening To Me? (On 2nd thoughts, Who Cares!)

Mind Bender (2:45 MIL of K Mix)

I had a really good time mixing this, So good that I failed yet again! to go to sleep, I'm having trouble remembering 😹 not since I woke up last Friday morning!!! I spent most of yesterday evening on Bandcamp listening to new tracks to buy (I found lots!) and that kept me busy until well after midnight.
I was fairly certain that I'd found some really good stuff and was so excited that I simply had to have a mix, and given the lateness of the hour, I had to do the mix entirely in my headphones, which is something I've always found difficult, I couldn't ever do that when I mixed with vinyl! and only recently discovered that I could do it, which is amazing, as now I can mix any time I want 😜
I think that the real reason I was so excited was that I had some new tracks and remix's by Sasha, who is quite simply an astounding DJ and Producer, and that lead me to buy some great tunes from the Last night on earth label.
I am very happy with this mix, and believe it is consistent throughout, three tracks playing most of the time, until the end, which is a four track Charlotte De Witte moment!

Liberate All New Auras (LANA)

I never intended this mix to turn out like it has!  But at the end of the day, I have become increasingly aware of the support that I get, and that I've had!!!
It's fair to say that I'm fucking useless at doing playlists!!! 😹 Not entirely my fault, although I've never been properly tested, I'm fairly certain that I have learning disabilities, Asperger's Syndrome and possibly ADHD, or both!!!  When I was a kid, these things were pretty much unknown, so no one would have known, but as I've got older, certain things have become more noticeable, and it would also explain why I learnt absolutely Fuck All at school!
Anyway, I've already strayed away from what I meant to write! 😜
This mix is for the people that have supported me over the years, some old, some new, and some who have been there from the start (Toby!)
The mix starts with Toby aka Wide River, and one of his older tracks, Sanctuary.  He is an excellent producer, and his brand of Techno, leaning towards the slightly harder side, is as good as any that I've ever heard!!!!
I probably don't have the space here to write all that I'd like to write, so other artists I'd like to mention are, David K A Spencer, who I believe has spent more time than I can imagine! listening to my mix's, and someone who is also a great producer, and I feel privileged to have become friends with, then there's Flo T, another amazing producer, his tunes are melodic masterpieces, on a lot of tracks I have to turn EQ's up, but with Flo T I usually have to turn them down!!! 😜
Then we have someone fairly new, but someone who made me feel So Very Good! Lazee Dog label from Australia, Thanks for the great communication. Meeeoooowwww!
Not sure if it was intentional, but I kept the Australian theme going, with my Favourite Possums, Grooveclowd, and I really don't have the space here to write my thoughts on them!!! 💖💖💖🍺🍺🙏👍💖💖💖 I love Grooveclowd So much, and especially Kim, they actually made a track for me! It's called look out for Jake!!!
I have to mention JP aka The 90's Hangover, who I love to bits, He also made a track for me called, For The Journeyman, JP is a legend and a top producer of Oldskool style Hardcore and Jungle, and in my opinion, is a Master at the use of Samples!!!
As I was nearing the end of my mix, I thought to myself, "What about 2:45"  And I was right, It's possible that I discovered, Wide River, Grooveclowd, and 2:45 all in the same week, I have so much love for 2:45, they are amazing and have helped me get through some very dark times, and I Love them Greatly 💖💖💖💖💖💖
My last words are for someone who is not in this mix, but it is someone who I Love a lot, He was the first person to ever comment on one of my mix's!  Kurt State of Clubfungus, I Love You Kurt!!! 💖🙏🍄💊😜

Many Thanks From JaKe

algunas pruebas que me gustan y hace rato que tengo ahí en un rincón juntando polvo... me parece que pueden ser escuchadas y hasta quizás gustadas por algunos.
la mayoría son juegos con escalas exóticas o escalas armadas con intervalos basados en phi (1.618...) o fracciones perfectas.
espero que muevan algo... o lleven a algún lugar :)

Microtonal Indietronica Lab 🔬 from 2:45

Sonic experiments we enjoy and hope you enjoy as well...
Some are microtonal tunes, playing with alternative tunings outside the equally tempered 12-notes scale.
Some are binaural beats, guiding your mind to other states via headphones in musical trips.
And others are pieces of electronic music where genres end up mixed. 

We are Melakki, Clau Sancai and Boolapp-Goro

Enjoy your visit! 🎶
