Dark Electronica I Found

Created with Dolby On

Behind the scenes of “Insert.ive” by Deejay Bliss

“Insert.ive” is the fifth track in this experimental ambient sequence. Captured live and processed entirely using Dolby On, this piece preserves the raw spontaneity of the moment while adding clarity and warmth through Dolby’s smart audio enhancement.

I used Dolby On on mobile to record the original take in one session, letting intuition guide the flow without over-editing. The result is a lo-fi but immersive sound environment that blends subtle synth pulses, background textures, and evolving motifs—all with minimal post-production. This track stands as a moment of creative immediacy, where the imperfections are part of the design.

Listen, support, and share — “Insert.ive” is now on SoundCloud!

ORION

submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam #32 hosted by emscottish for Itch.IO September 2025  just kept this really short with a secondary nod to the obscure arcade game The Cliffhanger Edward Randy (1992) the voice intro is my brief performance and not poached digitized voice from the game.

Assembly Opcode March submission for Tiny Music Jam #2 hosted by Aurora595 for Itch.IO September 2025

"Assembly Opcode March" x86 opcodes (like how MOV=1011 binary as high/low) for a simple loop, played as binary tones. 

As the basis of my tune i used the x86 assembly code for a simple infinite loop. It performs a futile operation: adding 1 to the EAX register and then immediately subtracting 1, resulting in no net change, before jumping back to repeat indefinitely. Basically it's performative of computer science concepts like wasted cycles, undecidability in halting, or inefficient code in low-level programming history (nodding to early assembly optimization challenges). Decoding the binary tone sequence back to hex opcodes reveals a "pointless eternal march," symbolizing programs that run forever without progress.

loop:

    add eax, 1      ; 83 C0 01  (add 1 to EAX)

    sub eax, 1      ; 83 E8 01  (subtract 1 from EAX)

    jmp loop        ; EB F8     (short jump back to 'loop' label; disp8 = -8)

This is a decent assortment of opcodes: 83 (modR/M for ADD/SUB with immediate)

C0 (modR/M byte for ADD to EAX)

01 (immediate value 1)

E8 (modR/M byte for SUB from EAX)

EB (opcode for short JMP)

F8 (displacement for JMP, -8 in two's complement)

These cover common categories: arithmetic (ADD, SUB), control flow (JMP), and operand encoding (modR/M, immediates). 

The full machine code in hex is: 83 C0 01 83 E8 01 EB F8.

Detailed Melody Notation

Notes are listed in order, grouped by byte for readability (8 tones per group). 

Each tone is a 16th note. Played monophonically on the synth with Step-Recording.
I say that liberally, they -were- 16th notes before compression to 20seconds

Byte 1 (83 hex = 10000011): G4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, G4, G4

Byte 2 (C0 hex = 11000000): G4, G4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4

Byte 3 (01 hex = 00000001): C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, G4

Byte 4 (83 hex = 10000011): G4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, G4, G4

Byte 5 (E8 hex = 11101000): G4, G4, G4, C4, G4, C4, C4, C4

Byte 6 (01 hex = 00000001): C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, C4, G4

Byte 7 (EB hex = 11101011): G4, G4, G4, C4, G4, C4, G4, G4

Byte 8 (F8 hex = 11111000): G4, G4, G4, G4, G4, C4, C4, C4

For Pass 2, I replaced C4 with C5 (523 Hz) and G4 with G5 (784 Hz) throughout the same sequence.

submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam #33 hosted by emscottish for Itch.IO September 2025

Firenewts were fishing in my first MUD area brought over to SlothMUD in August of 2008, Herbalist Isle 1. This is an ambient piece with some wssh noises for the waterfall in the background and one global effect used on MixCraft instead of from the synthesizer cast-over the whole composition for a little more flair.

after manually performing and layering on the Roland FA-08 this got one good global effect from MixCraft 10.6 to give it some fun delay-feel to it

the instruments in the MuseScore PDF are kind of way off from the synthesizer because this one was difficult to model in the more limited instrument selection, on the synth they are all pretty abstract tone choices

It's maybe messed up a little by the MixCraft 10.6 global effect i chose at the very last minute with like 20 minutes to go: but just approach it like "We're in the late 70's at a Jarre concert in France and we're way at the farthest worst seating in the venue and theres crappy echo on everything. LFG!"  Approached in that way and now after a few hearings I am starting to be more forgiving of it.

Carefully done timing fix to a pretty good early Synth track from near the end of the Hexa album in August 2023, appropriately during the wildfire season but hearkening back to the days in 2020 when we weren't sure if some of the fires during that contentious year were arson or activists or both.

Track Art has 3 overlays:
1) the original which is a real image of the 2020 wildfires somewhere like a MSM photo
2) an imagining of an intelligence community situation map showing which fires were really set on purpose or not (a "top secret" NORAD like map with a general looking like Kiefer Sutherland in "24" nonsense)
3) a nod to the fact that Yellow Face is Gollum's name for the sun, so a TA 3017 evoking image of the orcs around him and they don't care because they know Sauron released him

The Yearn Of A Camelopard / The Turn Of An Ambiguous Trick

so creative (ambient)

A plunge into trying to merge my vocal style with techno "sections"

When we look at the present strictures
We are a sad generation with happy pictures

After a frittering of eros 
On the barren grounds of lack
I decided soundly
To take another tack

In response to his cold stare
I said it gets pretty funny
45 billion here, 45 billion there
And suddenly you're talking about real money

He related as I dolloped the pancake syrup
The morning after he'd flagellated his furry integument
That a hacker get together in Europe
You see is an un-assessed data environment

His concluding vision was prophetic
Media production orbiting
A star of memetic contagion
A cynical relation
To art and aesthetics
As something to bully around
Until we're back to reality
And we smack into the ground

If you find the present day alarming
When you wonder where the authentic
Antique rizz has gone
Consider that aura-farming 
Is another great example of zoomer 
Internalization of the panopticon

An added garnish like parsley
Imagining a third party judging you harshly
When you shake off the romantic haze
your actions are but a spectacle
For an imagined collective gaze
Where you make the needed wiggles

You don't need to be actually cool you see
You can just curate the required signals
When you're the right kind of fool
You simulate aura 
Until simulation becomes reality
Like some opportunity cost sink

But chat what do you think

As regards immigration
For Schrodinger's assimilation
A fair amount of guilt is required
To stoke enough emotion
I tried to check
If the cat in the box was dead
But it busted ass for the ocean
As soon as the subsidies expired

I failed to convince him so i noped
He was the cock of the walk
And could talk the talk
And then one day
The man who invented the scissors statement
Broke his snippers on a rock
And i confessed to some abatement
Of my hopes

And then i started to wince
Because it was the first time in his life
That this dude missed an opportunity to mince

I thought i was about to die
When he said in all seriousness
The Wizard of Oz is a reverse harem isekai.

I tried to cheer him up anyway
And told him
Even if though for the moment
You feel like you're on the skids
Now that you have haters
It means that you're one of the cool kids

And then i had a realization which gave me pause
To earn the right to be a retard
You must first become genius enough
To reverse the damage you cause

Panopticon Parsley

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
