This song is now complete and will appear on the upcoming album Anthems for an Alternate Reality which I expect will be ready at some point in 2023. Also on the upcoming album will be Belgian Nite Scene - which if you have not checked out yet, is also available in demo format here somewhere.

Anthems from an Alternate Reality

Null and Void

Null And Void

This is the complete set of movements that give form to the meandering feeling and attention of existing in the "right now." This is tracks 1 - 4 of the upcoming release of the same name.

The slow menacing conclusion of this (called "Part C") can be found as a standalone track here: https://soundcloud.com/djaii/part-c

IntAlexX Beats - Super Mario

A deep thumping bass rhythm underpins this somewhat introspective electronica arrangement featuring a synth arp solo at the end with booming hammering drums. Clearly still needs some EQ sculpting and finalization work. 

The higher quality mastered version of Channeling God Directly will appear on the album Anthems from an Alternate Reality - on track to release in 2023.

Channeling God Directly [pre-release]

The first in a series of remakes I'm doing based on the songs I produced back in the 2000 to 2004 period when I was making hard dance beats on a PII Celeron OC with zero clue what I was doing. I liked a lot of the melodies and structures I built, but was never happy with the productions. So, Houston is the first one getting the re-do with a few more on the way (planned: Capture Box and Autodialer, and maybe T-53).

Unaddressed Matters

Houston

The Hunt

Rêveries D'un Soir D'automne

Amethyst

Monophonic groovy lead and bass lines with entirely haunted pad swells. The drums closely follow the groove of the lines and have some experimentation in parallel processing. Probably not EQ'd properly.

Unreleased

Signature Reduction Program

No song I've written in 2020 encapsulates the view from the inside more accurately than Desert of the Real. Melancholic, soaring, and sad. Yet I feel like there is something hopeful in it, like a path to a place that isn't so dark. I acknowledge the probability that it's all nonsense - but it's how I feel. 

Arrangement complete. The Buy link on this track goes to my Bandcamp page where you can get the entire album.

The Crucible

Desert of the Real [pre-release]

DJ'ing and writing music off and on since 2000, I'm now getting serious about my production skills and professional output. I'm writing IDM/abstract, ambient, techno, industrial and some downtempo stuff. 

During the pandemic I started writing more ominous ambient-adjacent work using distortion, saturation and huge powerful leads and pads. I'd like to break into doing music and sound design for video games or indie films at some point. Even if that never happens, I’m thoroughly enjoying making music for me. Cathartic? Absolutely.

If you like anything you hear, please comment! And should you discover something you'd like to use in a project of your own (be it tracks, samples, lines or whatever) let me know - I'm a share and share-alike collaborator and contributor.
