lucky day

Will most likely make a few more versions of «Mysterious» in due time. Experimenting and learning a new semi-modular synth so there will be mistakes or rather «happy accidents» along the way but that’s part of the fun. Altogether i’m using about 10 different hardware synthesizers in one track (i.e. mix VII). Thanks for listening:) Enjoy!

Mysterious

30 Plus 1

This mini mix showcases the 4 tracks on our second EP, Dance To The Rhythm, released on Friday 29th November, 2024 featuring Leighton, Jappa, Jman, Toby Ross, Oram and Scuffed.

Dance To The Rhythm EP Promo Mix

There’s a secret ingredient here:) 3rd mix of this track. Distorts slightly (pads) but nice on headphones. No samples! Only midi/live sequence. May do more versions later…

Mysterious III

[FREE] [NASCAR ALOE TYPE BEAT] [PROD. 715 BEATS X FR0GGY5]

Really long version here! 17 minutes 23 seconds but can be thought of as 3 parts. Starts soft then middle section moves into a kind of percussion jam where my secret ingredient is allowed to shine:) 3rd part is a crazy adlib (the last 3-4 minutes) where the ER-1 gets a workout. Definitely suggest listening on headphones (no distortion in this mix). Because the file is a hefty 200 mb the wav is «only» 16 bit 48 khz.

Mysterious VII

Fresh version of «Mysterious» recorded/mixed/mastered today:) Haven’t been in the studio for weeks. Winter has finally arrived in Southern Norway and Xmas is over. Happy New Year to all my listeners & followers!!

24 bit wav so may not stream well. Headphones highly recommended:)

Mysterious IX

Rather like this version:) Recorded a few weeks ago. Headphones recommended!

Mysterious IV

Probably my last version of «Mysterious» for now. This one’s short and simple. As I said previously there are always mistakes so in this track there’s no bass line, plenty of bass though;) For some unknown reason the “Boog” bass wouldn’t trigger (midi) while I was recording so that’s the reason the track became so short:) After listening a couple of times I liked the sonic space with no bass that left more room for the Moog Labyrinth:) Headphones recommended!

Mysterious XI

7 week theory

Brillman has been an electronic online musician during the last 20 years using many different names: Brillman, Controlfreak, freakcontrol, Red Karma, Atmosphere, Zero Loop, Pan64, Randomcontrol, geometric delay and Superfreak! Brillman mainly creates original sounds from hardware synths but also uses guitar, samplers, vocals or even poetry. He primarily utilizes a 4 to the floor approach. The aesthetics behind the music is about finding a balance between minimalism vs. depth & improvisation vs. programmed.
