Sparse Structure

Looking at the stars at night and drifting into a dream ...

Dreams Of The Milky Way

Like many things have two side, then moon shows us one and hides the other. But what is normally invisible can be discovered ...

The Dark Side Of The Moon

You hear the beating sound of the mysterious machinery when you approach the bridge that leads through the vortex. What will it be like on the other side?

On The Other Side

A new journey has just begun. What will we discover?

This is a prequel for https://soundcloud.com/ensonic-1/on-the-other-side, which picks up some sounds found here too.

A Bridge To A Parallel World

Reach for new heights, but also learn from those who tried before.

The Gray Dawn version of this song is one that I really like.
To honour the song and to learn from the creator I made this cover version. All the sounds you hear are build from scratch to capture the vibe of the original, but to also give it my personal touch.

Where Is The Time

Just beats + bass and wild sounds. All sounds done with #Bitwig native devices. Only one loop used, the rest is all synths. I've added a lot of automation, so if you listen with headphone you can discover a whole new layer of details. Have fun!

A quiet track that balances an epic pad with a deep done and some light sine arps. Seasoned with a couple of FX sounds.

Last Sunray

Melodic synthwave leads meet a FuturePop bassline and EDM drums. This also celebrates track No. 💯!  Hope it is worth it - let me know in the comments.

Thanks for all the support! Really appreciate all the likes, reposts and especially comments. This means a lot to me.

Avenging Angel

I dared to give my vocals to this track. What do you think? Is it okay or should I stick to instrumentals 🤪.
All sounds build with Bitwig native devices + a few samples for the drums.

Lyrics:
to gain your vote they're cheating on you
but their promises are too good to be true

once they're in charge they forget what they said
only care about their power and profit instead

join the raging crowd
show them your doubts
join the raging crowd
it is time to be loud

The Raging Crowd

Nothing is real. Close your eyes and sway your head to the beat. Don't wake up.

Sometime all we need are 5 minutes to escape the reality.

Mirage

I'll invite you to a journey into a forgotten world. It started when you found the medallion - the octagon. Close your eyes and follow your imagination.

All sounds designed with native #bitwig studio devices.

We are connected, to the collective. One brain, one mind. Let preserve what make use human.

Spacy & Dreamy, but danceable track made in #bitwig studio. The track uses a lot of detailed automation and some vocal whispers.

Tornado

I am composing dark electronic music in a variety of styles as my hobby. End of 2019 I became more active after I started using #Bitwig Studio. Let me know what you think and constructive criticism is very welcome too.

I like electronic music of all kinds (started with Depeche Mode in the 80s,  EBM in the 90s and FuturePop in the 00s, but also like Melodic Techno, Psytrance, Harsh Industrial, ...etc.).

I've started making music in the 80s on the Amiga 2000 with various trackers and used Buzz on Windows for a brief period during the 90s.

The gear I am using now:
A PC running OpenSuse Tumbleweed
2 27" WQHD screens
1st gen Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 Audio interface + 2nd gen Focusrite OctoPre
Novation Launchpad X
Arturia Keystep 37
Korg Nano Kontrol

I use Bitwig Studio with mainly the stock devices and Sononym for my sample library.
