shivers


kinda old track initially from studying but turned into a real release, one of my favorites :)
i actually lost the sample files from this track, the 12.21 remix, and several others, so the mixing is a bit jarring sadly, maybe i'll remix this one day?
here's that initial sketch if you're a little curious heh; https://soundcloud.com/idg_music/cold-embrace-sketch/s-pBDHZ0guHOQ?si=3059ede2c1e444feb9a3c632ed22870e&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

Track Note - Really wanted to change a ton in this track since it isn't my best and I've grown much since starting (I did practically no proper mixing!), but I deleted half of the samples in the track by accident, so this will be the final (there were a LOT of frozen tracks). I'm sorry if there's any inconsistencies, I'm aware of multiple of them but I guess there's nothing I can do. That aside I hope you still enjoy this remix, I put a good amount of time into it and it was super fun to make ♥
(also first public "release" on the internet woo!!)

21.12.2012 (IDG's "Lost Heart" Flip)

as everything begins to fade around me, my hope inevitably wears thin. these memories do not obscure any moment of hurt from the jagged spikes of the cold. my hope appeared useless and meant no more after everything fell apart. out of nowhere, a distant unfamiliar chime begins to break through. the melody invigorates my heart with warm embers, and my mind races with images of a theoretical future. it wasn't perfect but it was Enough. should you let yourself abandon your reality with a cold stab to yourself, or should you choose to hold a blanket of hope across yourself and hold it out?

stay safe out there ♥

- OF FEARS AND OF DREAMS -

2024 update: this track's BGA has been delayed indefinitely, the full version may be incorporated but heavily modified by the time the album releases (which will be in Many years from now), it may also instead appear on an EP releasing sooner if all goes to plan.
for archival, the proper version is available here: https://soundcloud.com/idg_music/deathof-ex/s-D1hUDpi460o?si=384e6823a75e4b51b3894200a81325e7&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

culminate is a track that i've worked on for weeks and holds a special place in my heart to me. I decided to release a heavily cut-down version for BSC as I think this track helped me a lot and it'd fit the healing theme perfectly, I hope y'all enjoy it <3
this is also a preview of my 2024 debut album :> expect a LOT to be changed with this
a full BGA will be available alongside the full, remastered version soon, just bear with me ^^


note; this has been slowed and heavily cut down for the mix, an uncut better mixed version will release soon <3

this song was made around one year ago, and it's still one of my favorite works. This was actually technically the original, as the old version was altered to fit the requirements for BangerSound's Cipher, in fact this was uploaded to soundcloud before. It was around the last time I'd make a track solely for myself for the following year, and I really enjoyed the whole process. I've been slowly working towards an EP which should release in about a year from now, but in the meantime I've been working on FOF III, alongside a secret project revival. I hope you do bear with me, I promise I have lots to show.

several spaces occupied within one illustrious concept

I made this track as a fun little getaway from the album, trying to experiment with lots of new things while re-establishing my fundamentals. I wanted to try and emphasize my current latest phase in inspirations within my listening sessions and output that in this thing, some of these ideas were actually from very early roots though, which is why i felt like this was more a summary of what I enjoyed
these ideas worked surprisingly in tandem with the original track's jumpy frenetic movements, which is what made me so attached to working on a project like this, it's not often I actually finish one of these and be proud of the result... just kidding! it's never happened before lmao, thanks for being such a good motivator ^^
overall, i'm pretty happy with this, and i really enjoyed the original too, thanks for having me on <3

SMA11OWL - Indiscreet Illusions [IDG's "time-warp synopsis" Remix]

A signal made from another incomprehensible area of existence, a call from a powerful yet unknown beacon of hope, a cold cry for a response never to be made, An infinitely moving oscillator waiting for an input to let it free, a request for it's existence to be known, and an infinitesimal yet blind hope to be heard. 

As the days worsen and the cold appears more fierce, I can't help but feel as though the light will never return, maybe their input means nothing. As I continue waiting in the ephemeral abyss, I, in failure, try to re-invigorate in all my memories, before I presumably fade into the black outskirts.

personal notes; this started as a personal project + livestream at midnight till 2am last night [03/06/2023 mmddyyyy], and transformed into this by the next day. well, that's kinda skipping where I found this track and everything... over 2 years ago, I signed up for a Tetr.io account excitedly and grew a strong attachment to this silly little stacker, and there was this one song that kept coming up that gave off such an intricate emotion for such simplicity. I found it eventually, and kept listening to it since. It's a beautiful yet simple piece that with the little foley jingles and choir makes for a soothing experience like no other, and that's why I wanted to cover it. I was (and still am) afraid that I ruined the original mood and killed off all signs of respect to the intention, but I think it's minimized a bit. I had a lot of fun doing this, and it was a journey to make. thank you Sudo Mikaduki, Hurt Record, the Tetr.io team (especially osk!), ren & lan, and all my friends who inevitably inspired the continuation of my journeys! until next time ❤
