My current era. I thought that I was going to be done but my muse came back and hit me HARD. I'm going to just focus on making stuff that sounds cool to me. No more putting myself into boxes, no more feeling afraid that I'm stagnating, none of that!

At the end of the day, I don't make music to be known or acknowledged. I don't make it to become famous one day. I just do this because it's fun to me and is an important part of me, simple as that, lol.

Get ready for me to become a heck of a lot more experimental because the restrictions and limiters are gone! 

I've always made music off of my heart and instinct anyway, why try to change now?

K: Beats of Revival (2024- Present)

A wonderful stash of 8/16/32/64-bit inspired gaming vibes!

🎮8-bit | 16-bit | 32-bit | 64-bit🎮GAMINGWAVE

Finally broke through my creative block (for now...)

I wanted to come back with something pretty simple but has that "K." feeling to it. I have a few more things that I'm working on but knowing me, it'll get abandoned due to creative block, lol

Also yes, the pad is literally the Windows 98 Start Up theme mixed with MonoPoly and SurgeXT. You know me, I love doing weird stuff like that, lol.

Anyway, enjoy!

Chilly Days

What a name, huh? Yeah...I couldn't think of anything. Heck, I didn't even have a reason to make this, it was completely serendipitous, hence the name. My heart just wanted to make something intense, experimental, melodic yet slightly dissonant.  Regardless, hope you enjoy it!

Serendipitous Circumstances

I was able to get the creative juices flowing for one more beat for the year! This was honestly really fun to make, especially the break solo at around 1:57. I did a lot of experimentation with the sub bass in this one, trying to make things sound as dynamic as possible, especially because I knew that it would basically be one pattern going on throughout the entire track. Naming, of course, goes to Shaolinkingx as I'm awful at naming my own beats (looking at you "Serendiputious Circumstances"!)

Anyway, Happy Holidays and see you next year! o/

Edit 04-02-25: I just wanted to include a small tidbit of the inspiration of this beat. Not only was this VERY much inspired by Soichi Terada's works, but also heavily influenced by the use of stereo audio phasing in Tekken 2 and 3 (though, I definitely have also heard this effect used in quite a few 90s video games as well!)

 I always found the use of it really cool and sometimes like to incorporate it into my beats for an added flair!

Refractive Matrix

I contemplated on whether to post this beat on my main account or to the Beta account as it's a derivative beat. I decided to just say "screw it" and post it here on the main. I'm also leaving this as proof that I don't have to always make "experimental" stuff, lol!

...it feels like I do this every year. I think that I've made the last beat of the year and then my muse all of a sudden just knocks in my door and is like "HEY K, GET A LOAD OF THIS!!"

Anyway, this beat was originally supposed to be a house beat but while making it I was like, "Man...I could put a trap beat over this. Yeah, I'm gonna put a trap beat over this, lol." and that's how I have the "Day" version of this beat. The "Night" version of this beat will be done soon enough, maybe...

Anyway, enjoy!

Fun Fact: The name of this beat comes from a beat that I made on PSP Rhythm back in 2010 that's been living rent free in my head for like 14 years. I've lost the original beat somewhere in 2014 but I had recreated it and posted it on my Beta account as a momento. https://soundcloud.com/kbeforethecloud94/recreated-2010-beat-essence

Another fun fact: The unofficial name I've given this beat is "Essence in the Dawn"

Essence (2024) - Day Version

Been a while since I've done a House beat, lol.

As promised, here's the Night version of the beat. At first, this was the only version of the beat that would have existed but because an IRL friend wanted me to make a separate version for the trap part, I created a "Day" and "Night" version. That's about it.

Anywho, this is the last beat of the year. FOR REAL this time!

Happy Holidays and see you next year!

Fun Fact! The unofficial name I gave this beat is "Essence in the Dusk"

Heyo, it's been a while; my muse decided to wake up and help me finally make something that sounds decent.

The main inspiration of this track is mostly old school racing games from the 5th/6th generation of consoles (PS1, Dreamcast, PS2, etc). The majority of the sound effects used are actually from either Gran Turismo 2 or Ridge Racer Type 4!

I had so much fun making this one! Hopefully I can muster the inspiration to finish the other stuff I've been working on for the past year.

Oh, I've also privately posted a version without the sound effects!

Here you go: https://on.soundcloud.com/efTHWd0YrXldNLzngi

Anyway, enjoy!

Edit: Also, it wasn't intentional but you can also see this as a spiritual successor to Boardslide (https://soundcloud.com/k-style94/boardslide)

I'm a fledgling artist that likes to make primarily VGM-like Jungle and Hip Hop tracks as a hobby (though, I sometimes delve into other genres occasionally). Most of the beats that I make are pretty serendipitous and spontaneous, leaving me to have bouts of creative blocks, unfortunately. I've definitely never studied sound theory or anything, but I feel like I'm starting to get decent at playing things by ear, lol.

Everything I make is free to download and use for any non-commercial purpose, the only thing I'd like is a shout-out!

If you want to remix my stuff, even better! Just send over a shout-out and let me listen to it, I'd love to see what cool stuff you could make out of it!

I started making beats back in late 2008 on Garageband, moved on to PSP Rhythm in late 2009 and then to FL Studio in late 2012. Has it really been that long...? Man, I'm getting old.

I'm influenced mostly by a mix of the hip hop tracks I heard as a kid back in the late 90s/early 2000s and games that I played during that time. Soichi Terada (the composer of the music for the Ape Escape series) had a huge influence on me.

Secondary influences have to definitely be Rukunetsu, Marcell2aG (Negrosaki) (been a fan of both since 2009!), Amprsand (been a fan since 2010!) and NomedBeats (been a fan since 2014!).

The links at the bottom are as followed:

1). My beta account, where I post WIP stuff, old beats that had to be deleted due to the lack of space (I didn't used to pay for Next Pro) and beats from before I made my SoundCloud account back in late August of 2017.

2) The CONventional Podcast, a podcast a friend of mine does about various anime conventions. If you're a big fan of cons, I'd definitely give it a listen!

3) My VRChat Account. I don't really play anymore but who knows, I'll probably go back in to roleplay a Roomba again someday, lol.

If you made it all the way here without skipping, I just want to say thanks for reading and learning a little bit about me, it really means a lot!
