I met Ayla Nereo at Burning Man 2013, and fell in love immediately. She had an aura with immense gravity and I couldn't help but ask if I could take her picture (the avatar of this song). 

When this contest came up, I thought it was exciting because I am just getting into music production, and this is in fact my first release. I was hoping to take Ayla's sound into a new area and fuse it with a more electronic feel!

Ayla Nereo - Eastern Sun ( I Must Be Dead Remix)

This is a second track I was playing around with for Ayla's contest. I am just starting out with music production so these are a fun way to experiment with a good vocalist. I feel they could go into more length and have some better dancy parts, but the contest is due so I am uploading them. I might have a go at remixing the whole album though, could be fun.

Check out the contest.

Ayla Nereo - Bonteka (I Must Be Dead Remix)

Kinda still learning music production here but thought it would be fun to do a song with some orgasms in it! Enjoy!

Sex Machine

A friend brought to my attention that LANDR was having a remix contest with some songs I enjoy, so I thought I'd give it a whirl. I had a hard time picking which song to remix, and rather than do two different songs I decided to combine Adventure Clubs Gold and Lucianos Origins into one. Hope you like it, kind of just having fun and experimenting.

Adventure Club Gold / Luciano Origins ( I Must Be Dead Remix)

This is one of the first full tracks I wrote a couple months ago, I lost all my music files so I although I was planning on doing more to it, I guess I can't and we have to move on haha!

I named it good vibes because well I played it for someone and they said it gave them good vibes.

I recently met Tim at Burning Man 2014, and he had out there on the playa this damn music machine that I fell in love with immediately! The Space Palette! This thing tracks your hand movement in 3 dimensions, and produces sounds from different synthesizers set to the determined areas. 

I thought it would be fun to meet up with him to talk about his invention, and play around with it for an extended amount of time. This is the results of my first attempts to play it with intention of making a song.

For more information on the machine you can visit Tim's website.

For of my thoughts on this thing, and my trip to go play it you can visit my blog.

LANDR has amazing contest prizes, and I have won 2nd place before, and they actually sent me equipment, which blows my mind, so I like to keep doing remixes for them. This time you could either do Shinichi Osawa's  "Frosted Tips" or  HILOCO NeroDoll's  "Come On". So I decided to just go ahead and mash up/remake both into 1. The etheral sounds are from "Frosted Tips", and the beat is from "Come On" , as well as some of my own recorded percussion and sounds. And yes this track is mastered with LANDR.

Hopefully you all enjoy it! I really like this one is makes me feel good! Hope to play it live someday!
