Making music is my therapy - every track is a journey, an escape, a moment of calm. Relax, hit play, and let the music take you away as well. You’ll mostly find synthwave, ambient, and chill lo-fi beats here. Thanks for listening!

ToneDeF is a software engineer by profession, part-time composer by inclination. He is influenced musically by what he listens to, which consists of hard rock, hair metal, synth-pop, progressive rock/metal, new age electronic, techno/trance, and classics from the Romantic and Baroque periods. It is not unusual to hear tiny shades of commercially successful works within his own humble little ones -- he considers it an homage to the truly talented.

One of ToneDeF's guilty pleasures is recreating the music of classic computer/video games utilizing modern synthesized and sampled sounds. His first submission to SoundCloud was a re-imagining of the main theme music from the classic LucasArts game, "Ballblazer".

Although he has chosen "ToneDeF" as his handle, rest assured that he is not actually "tone deaf".

Who exactly are "The ElectroMetal Minstrels"? They are the virtual musicians "performing" the virtual instruments on each track sequenced by ToneDeF.

Feel free to use my music in your content as long as you credit me properly. Would also love to hear where you decide to included my music.

I've played video games since the 80s. I enjoy almost all genres and consoles (classic and modern). This has influenced my love for a certain style of music such as synthwave and rock which is abundant on SoundCloud. In short, I love this site!

VORTEX ELEMENTS is the Collaboration-Project of Sonic Chain & Chris Gate founded in 2003. Since 2009, the project has devoted itself to more traditional EM with a modern touch, which was initially created as studio sessions and then the finished tracks were arranged, giving them the right "flow".
The songs from this time were recorded on the album "Decennium Edition 2003-2013".
Since the Corona pandemic in 2020, the collaboration has shifted strongly to a way of working through a regular mutual exchange of projects via the web.
In this context, the album "Distance" was released in 2022.
The album "Wavement" was released in November 2024, characterized by strong ambient influences.

We are currently looking for partners who will move our music forward:
Labels, A&Rs, producers, etc., simply people with the right relationships.

So please don´t hesitate to get in contact with us.

Enjoy our music!
