When one’s ears are aligned cardinally toward the visage of vibration, patterns become as illusory as they are rational.

Trickery for the Ears is a seven-track electronic grimoire designed for self-inflicted hypnosis through rhythm and grand ambience. Blown-out analog synthesis and distorted drum patterns loop in perpetual entrancement. Each piece serves as a small experiment in euphoria through repetition — an attempt to discover spirituality within audial ritual.

For those interested in more incantations — a digital purchase on Bandcamp includes eight bonus tracks of various drafts, demos, and throwaways.

Made with care and obsession. 
As always, a big thank you to my listeners and my dear friends for letting me share these sounds with you. Peace <3

25 songs for 25 years :)

these 25 tracks were made anywhere from 2020 to 2025.
i always enjoyed listening to them as private tracks on here, but i never felt like they could be released.
i've finally decided to share a good chunk of those songs in honor of my 25th birthday.
also, there's a good bit more where this came from. and, yes, i'll drop those at some point too :)

thank you for your support
i hope to start dropping a bit more consistently, despite life being rather busy

i also want to thank all of my family and friends (especially make family not friends lol) for everything they've done to support me over the years.
big shoutout to james gorczyca for giving me the courage to drop something like this, as i never thought any of these tracks would see the light of day.
ultimately, i wouldn't be where i am if it weren't for listeners like you, so i'm forever grateful for you as well.

once again, thank you all very much. i couldn't have done this without you.

cheers,
eric checks <3

My House

[LYRICS]
shawty said she feel me 
i don’t really feel it 
i don’t got no feeling at all at all 
my hands turning cold i don’t wanna talk no i don’t wanna go 
i’m not really used to all the fame and the hoes 
i’m not really used to all the chains and the clothes 
all the bangs and the blow

do it all wrong but it all feels right 
just you and me we could kick it all night 
i can’t really move with my hands all tied 
say what i want with my tongue all tied 
i’m hanging on by a thread 
i’m scared of what’s in my head 
my mistakes are always gon haunt me right before i go to bed 

baby i’m the worst and i feel like i deserve it 
feels like i’m cursed yeah i feel like a burden 
only feel real when i punch another verse 
in 
gotta keep it real i don’t hide behind no curtain 
i know that i’m crazy yeah i got some delusions 
summer 19 lots of acid i abused it
yeah i’m fucking nuts but i feel like i can do this 
everybody talks but im really speakin music 
lately i been tweakin lately i been itching 
i don’t think they get it they don’t see the vision
i do what i want i don’t care how you livin 
only thing that matters in this life is how you live it 
yeah how you live it 
how you live 
are you scared right now cause i’ve always been 
i just wanna kill my brain and i’ll dive right in 
i swear i’ll kill my brain and i’ll dive right in 
yeah i’ll jump right in yeah i’ll jump right in 
ugh

do it all wrong but it all feels right 
just you and me we could kick it all night 
i can’t really move with my hands all tied 
say what i want with my tongue all tied 
i’m hanging on by a thread 
i’m scared of what’s in my head 
my mistakes are always gon haunt me right before i go to bed 

do it all wrong but it all feels right 
just you and me we could kick it all night 
i can’t really move with my hands all tied 
say what i want with my tongue all tied 
i’m hanging on by a thread 
i’m scared of what’s in my head 
my mistakes are always gon haunt me right before i go to bed

TAILWHIP

SQUIRM

Following the final release of his three-part series ‘Order’, ‘Chaos’, and ‘Balance’, Bon-Psy has united the projects together into a forthcoming album, set to also feature remixes from a handful of talented producers in the Electronica space.

This second remix comes from ‘Nuage’, a respected producer with multiple releases on Anjunadeep and Phonica Records who leans into delicate and emotive electronic fusions of forward-thinking House and 2-step / Future Garage styles. Here, he transforms the melancholy and subtle approach of the original into an infectious club banger that is as catchy as it is danceable.

Kinetic low end provides the club energy while he tastefully repurposes the vocals with a scattergun effect to hit in and out over a swathe of soft synth swells and chords. The resulting piece draws similarities to the likes of Four Tet, Floating Points, and Caribou’s dance output with its blend of leftfield styles mixed with club rhythms.

Nuage is a name many of the heads already know with notable support from RinseFM, KissFM, FIP, Majestic Casual, and Mr SuicideSheep. Across DSPs he is known just as well and has been a mainstay of a variety of electronica playlists on AppleMusic, Spotify, and AmazonMusic.


Meanwhile Bon-Psy has also received notable support from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6Music , Bandcamp Weekly, and a plethora of streaming editorial playlists including Genre Glitch, Fresh Finds Experimental (Spotify), New In Electronic (Apple Music), Reverie (Tidal) and Brand New UK (Deezer).

Collectively it’s a great artistic match and the track looks set to hit the dancefloors strong with early tastemakers already unleashing it to great effect.
