cool to join you on the new Cottage Industries compilation :)

My winning entry to the Assembly 2023 Dance Music competition.

Sequenced and produced using Renoise 3.4, utilizing lots of period appropriate hardware synths like JD-990 and JV-1080 from Roland, Yamaha FS1R and Kawai K5000S; in fact all of the pads and most of the general soundscape are sourced from these instruments. Also lots of classic sample CDs utilized, and a general assortment of VST plugins.

This version of the track was sped up slightly to fit better to the 3:30 duration limit of the compo. This version is also generally shorter than it should be. Full version coming some day, possibly. The mix is also not perfect but at some point you just have to stop tweaking.

You can see the results, and listen and download the entries through here: https://demozoo.org/parties/4634/#competition_18125

Also heard in the video game "Stochastic Gravity Enjoyers" in the game development compo (full release pending!). Current version available here: https://demozoo.org/productions/327434/

Wide Blur Yonder

A quick demo of some sounds from the Yamaha EX-5. The presets are all what you would expect from a 90s rompler, boring pads and electric pianos. But i made some FM sounds and a few other things and knocked up this track. All straight from the EX-5, no outboard. I was trying to sell it but now I might keep it :)

EX5 Demo

Hi friends, my new track "Immortal Dreams" is out now! It is an atmospheric dnb track that has gotten global DJ support. I am happy to share it as a free download as a birthday present, as I turn 42 years in December 2023.

Oh, and remember to check out my previous presents as well, "Existence" from year 2021 and "One Day" from year 2022.

Enjoy, peace and much love to you all.

Airfix Remastered - Oestrogen Side

Clocking in at a steady 6minutes 56 seconds, „Wharf“ is a brand new track by Lackluster, composed in Aurinkolahti, Vuosaari, Eastern Helsinki, Finland. By this time, Lackluster 's son was 6 months old. This was composed as a one-off compilation track and is very reminiscent of the Aurinkolahti, Vuosaari related tracks from his released on Hymen Records, Alley. However, taking a step forwards to slightly more complex and more upbeat tempos with more processing, it's a mixture of computer sounds and external synthesizers. See if you can't figure out which!

Various Artists - Tour De Traum 28 (Traum CDDig 55) incl. this track is available in high audio quality on all major sales and streaming platforms: https://orcd.co/tourdetraum28
