a beat I made where I incorporated gun sound effects. I had a lot of fun with this one.

Barrage

not really sure what how to categorize this one

Lysosome

Something I started working on today. Will probably have a revised version soon! It needs a proper outro and I'd like to fuss more with the instrumentals and beat(it's repetitive atm)but I had fun with the vocals specifically and I'd like play around with it more.

The Seer

Experimenting with dark ambience and sound design.

My favorite part is probably 9:02, because it has a percussiveness to it that is scarce in the rest of the track. The next time I work on a project like this I definitely want to have more percussive parts.

The ending of the track (11:22) is more pensive and eerie rather than straight up spooky. 

The FX at 5:10 sounds like a demon passing gas at parts and it's kinda funny. I thought about changing it but couldn't bring myself to XD.

The third act of the dark ambient project I'm working on. The second act has not been uploaded but the first one has (Homage To Akira). I will be posting the acts as they are completed, but once everything is fully composed and arranged I'll be posting the entirety of it with all the parts named. The setting of this act takes place mainly in a desert/wasteland and stronghold, where Andras lurks (hope you won't get bored of his creepy laughter!) When I first started working on Homage to Akira I was just imagining Cheryl walking through Silent Hill. When I realized I'd need to name everything and develop something in my head to follow I started researching myths, monsters, and demons. Andras was a demon I found and was instantly unsettled by him; a man riding a hound with an owl's head. 

It's been fun turning something that was originally just messing around into a full blown project. I hope you enjoy the spoopiness. I know it's a lot to listen to, so I'll list the different parts for the skimmers out there (I'm looking at you... yes you... and also projecting!). Also listed is a bit of lore I guess, but I don't want to give away everything. Mostly I'd just like people to have a sense of what I'm imagining when I compose this. 

-0:00 | Crimson Geysers (the surface of a volatile underground volcano.)
-2:07 | Kigatilik: Slayer of Shaman (a recurring foe in the story, it is first encountered in Homage to Akira at 9m2s. The laughter heard in the background is not Kigatilik but a lurking Andras who is the main antagonist of this act.)
-4:20 | The Gray Knight (First time seeing Andras, who rides off towards his stronghold)
-5:55 | Boneyard of Disharmony (a wasteland filled with piles of bones)
-9:12 | Kingdom of Contempt (a small city found at the end of the boneyard)
-12:02 | Stronghold Alleys (alleyways that lead to the stronghold)
-14:49 | Halls of Discordance (entering the stronghold)
-18:06 | Andras: Unity's Curse (First face off with Andras)
-20:06 | Corridor (a dark corridor leading to an ominously lit room)
-21:32 | Solomon's Summons (at the end of the corridor, a dark ritual is taking place)
-23:29 | Andras: General of Enmity (Second face off)
-27:27 | Invisible Horizon (the wasteland beyond the Kingdom of Contempt)
-29:08 | Tara's Oasis (a safe haven, where relief from the desert is found)

General of Enmity

It's been nice having more low key cover projects to work on between the more tiring stuff like the horror music. I feel less pressure to perfect it and can kind of just have fun with it. I felt like doing something groovy and of course had to turn to THE Erykah Badu. Below is the link to the original song.

On & On (Cover)

I don't know what in the everlovin' heck is going on in this track but here... take it ._.

Mischievous Lemon (instrumental)

More migraine-inducing/politically-themed abominations coming soon!

This will be getting lyrics/vocals eventually but I'm stuck on how I want to modulate my voice for it. Gonna keep rolling with this theme and possibly do an EP.

Mischievous Lemon (w Samples)

The themes of this Act are death, decay, grief, acceptance. The protagonist is a girl (aged somewhere around 11-13 years) who entered this realm seeking a way to bring her mother back to life. Some of the names of these parts may change as things develop. Listed them below for you skimmers out there but good luck skimming when every pixel is a whole minute heheheheheh. Seriously though, I was trying to skim the track after I exported and OH BOY was it a pain in the ass. Almost all the deities referenced in this story are from real myths/legends/religions, so if you're curious you can look them up! 
-0:00 | Rhiannon's Guidance(Meadow of the Forsaken): An ally leads the protagonist on horseback through a meadow, towards the marshes.  
-2:10 | Festering Marshes
-4:03 | Conjurer's Swamp
-5:21 | The Necromancers
-8:16 | Kigatilik (The Pursuit)
-10:19 | Lake of Conception: After escaping by boat the shaman has visions
-13:55 | Avalokiteshvara's Tears: After uncovering a ruin on a small island, the young shaman remembers those she has lost, and receives a relic that could be useful later. 
-18:00 | The Ferryman
-19:27 | River of Anguish: A tumultuous river (the Ferryman's help is necessary to get through it). Despair itself can be seen in the rapids as the waves crash. 
-21:54 | Birth of Tara: The relic gives birth to a new ally
-23:12 | At the Gates of the Necropolis
-24:50 | City of Decay: A city at the base of a great plateau 
-27:04 | The Catacombs
-35:08 | Undead Larvae: Big icky bug! :O
-37:51 | Scaling the Plateau: navigating a graveyard precariously placed on the cliffs leading upward.
-41:02 | Elegy for our Northern Lights: At the top of the plateau, green northern lights can be seen in the sky, bringing back memories for the shaman. 
-42:34 | Altar of Nasu: no one escapes death
-43:54 | Nasu (Death Incarnate): BOSS FIGHT 
-46:54 | Requiem for Anaana 

Honorable mention: The mother borkin' beep that showed up in the track uninvited and took me 30 minutes to fix. Couldn't have done it without you buddy! Exporting this while maintaining the integrity of the audio was a pain, pretty sure some parts got distorted but nothing major. I'm gonna be taking some music production courses this year so hopefully those will help me get better at polishing muh sounds.

Altar of Nasu

Just a person who loves experimenting with all different kinds of music. You can find more of my stuff on youtube, same username.
