Enter the Shadow Zone

Hey! 

Here are some sounds I’ve cobbled together and forged into something hopefully resembling music! 

Please take a listen!

If you’d like to use any of the music for something, or have a project that might work with my sound, let me know.

Some other text —

I’ve noticed I’ve got a bit of stuff here now — though it’s rather disjointed and all over the place. Please rummage through; perhaps there’s something you’ll like. 

I also think I’m closing in on a sound of sorts. But I suspect I’ll never quite find it… and that’s ok!  There’s a compulsive want to just make weird shit. And I’m cool with that.

Process —

What I do here is mostly based on the hardware gear I have. (Though I do use plugins for guitar and a few soft synths or keys.) 

I only just—almost don’t—know how to use it all.
I just keep working and iterating until it sounds good to me. It’s just the best I can do really…

Drums are usually played in or sequenced (programmed)

I use Ableton Live (with an Ableton Push) and mix and master in Ableton using a bunch of plugins. 

I shall continue to make stuff… Continue to listen, if you please.

Cheers.


Note: I don’t knowingly use any AI for music creation.

Nothing against AI — I just want to make what I can,
with what I’ve got, and whatever knowledge I can scrape together. For what it’s worth.
