The Balad Of James St. James

In Red

This track takes Blade Runner and slices it into something new—distorted fragments that pull you into a futuristic dreamscape. The chopped sample rides on top of deep synth work, blurring the lines between nostalgia and a dark, hopeful future. It feels like you’re walking through a forgotten city, neon lights flickering in the rain, the past barely holding onto the edges of the present. There’s a rawness here, with influences from Vangelis, Aphex Twin, and Radiohead pulling you deeper into this eerie yet somehow comforting space. The experimental sound design, bending and twisting, takes you off guard but still feels grounded. It’s a mix of cold, metallic elements softened by emotional undertones, leaving you thinking about what was, and what might have been, long after the beat fades out.

Sailing, With A Horse

DEMI

Chemtrails make indie electronic that lives in the sweet spot between synthpop sheen, art-pop instincts, and leftfield weirdness. This season, they’re leaning fully into “alternative holiday”: a cinematic, tongue-in-cheek cat anthem that plays like a glittery winter fever dream—funny on the surface, slightly unsettling underneath, and built for late-night playlists as much as it is for a party speaker. Think experimental pop hooks, seasonal mischief, and a cat-song concept delivered with real production craft—not kids-music novelty, more surreal holiday cult classic.

How Much Catnip For Christmas

“How Many Candles For Cat Hanukkah?” is Chemtrails at our most shadowy-and-sweet: a holiday song that refuses to behave. It’s part synthpop love letter, part new-wave mischief—winter-night drums, glassy keys, and a hook that lands like neon in the fog.

At the center is our small, stubborn hero: a cat in a yarmulke, posted up beside the menorah like he’s guarding the light itself. It’s funny, it’s oddly romantic, and it’s a little haunted—the kind of track that makes you laugh and then, two lines later, hits you with something real.

Light the candles. Hide the catnip. Press play.

How Many Candles for Cat Hanukkah

Chemtrails’ “Christmas, Hanukkah & Kwanzaa Cat Holiday” is a winter-night postcard from the edge of the party: a black ghost cat under the tree, a menorah burning steady, and the room lit by something that feels equal parts comfort and omen. It’s post-punk/coldwave with a cinematic noir glow—bass-forward, drum-machine pulse, shimmering synth haze—holiday warmth filtered through shadow.

Play it loud, light a candle, and let the cat run the ritual.

Christmas, Hanukkah & Kwanzaa Cat Holiday

The Ghost Network is a transmission disguised as a song—Lynch-noir rock smeared into Portishead-style trip-hop, with a chorus that keeps looping like a station ID you can’t shut off.

The story threads two infamous pieces of conspiracy folklore: the debunked Philadelphia Experiment tale (1943, USS Eldridge, “invisibility/teleportation”) and the mythic Montauk Project era (70s/80s, Montauk Air Force Station—psychic research, mind control, time-bends), the way the internet loves to splice them together until the myth starts wearing your face.

Swung breaks, dub-weight low end, fuzz and tremolo guitars, tape hiss and shortwave ghosts—then that hook: “Ghost network, ghost network—midnight line / in my mind.”
Close your eyes. Hold the tone. Count to four. Transmit.

GHOST NETWORK

A slow-burn trip-hop transmission built on dusty, human-swing breakbeats, warm sub-bass, and analog-synth weather. Under the groove, found audio flickers like a numbers station—shortwave ghosts bleeding through the mix until the room starts to feel a little… supervised.

Cinematic, paranoid, and oddly warm. Late-night headphones recommended.

Let's Make Some LSD

A playful, retro-inspired TV theme for I Dream of Gene-ie—a modern fantasy sitcom with a classic heartbeat. Bouncy bass, cartoon-tight orchestration, and a wink of “space magic” drive a short, high-energy opener built for trouble, romance, and wish-gone-wrong chaos.

Bright, mischievous, and unapologetically fun, this track channels vintage television charm through a modern lens—where one lamp, one astronaut, and one bad idea can bend the rules of reality.

Wish granted. Consequences included.

I Dream of Gene-ie - Theme Song

Somewhere towards the end of the 20th century government sponsored agencies began an experimental attack upon the citizens of numerous cities and towns throughout the postindustrial nations of the world. The reasons and the effects at that time were questioned as well as the validity of the questions raised towards such events. In the midst of these events individuals and groups began to develop theories and documentations of these anomalies, known since as the chemtrail  phenomena, and publish these findings in blogs and personal publications. From the inner sanctums of the conspiracy and from the most insightful fringes of the theorists arose a hybrid of propaganda and mysticism.
