One of my favorite older tunes from about 2005 that I recently had a bunch of fun making sound a bunch better. This is the first song I made when I got my Sequential Circuits Prophet 600, STILL one of the my most loved and go-to synths. Almost ALL of bass and lead sounds are from it. Its also, one of the very first synths to have midi in it circa 1983 and I was just figuring out how to send mess with that stuff at the time. Its a big, nasty, pitchy, beauty of weirdness type instrument. If you even see one out there GET IT, or lemme know cause it would be baller to have 2. The samples are very tongue in cheeky, but its pretty funny live. :D

The Snarler - Longwalkshortdock (A Resurrected Classic)

live life through the music.......... this is how I get through.... it......the pain, the  struggles.... the ignorance of others......the lies...carelessness.... but in all fairness.... this....isn't how  it was meant to be..... they ain't no half stepp'n when the troubles be stepp'n right in front of me.......flowing through my insides like the blood racing in my veins........bass beating like my cold heart...with force and rage........all alone... with just my head in phones...... I have escaped.

Thought I'd start putting some mixes and mashups out 🤷‍♂️

Longwalkshortdock esentially started the first time Dave King heard gritty electronic music in early eighties videogames. Strongly influenced by these sounds and melodys, Dave started recording and looping segments as a child. He also got a taste for sampling and recording; taping segments of his piano practice to fool his parents into thinking he was practicing in the other room when he was really playing nintendo (note : actually practicing might have served him better). Currently, a veteran of sound design and electronic music production for well over a decade, Longwalkshortdock's music has stepped into a genre of its own. Heavily influnced by early 80s video game music, metal and rock music, found-sound and vintage analog synthesis, he stacks layers of melody in his tracks until they implode and reform. Heavy drums and aggresive synths join forces with rolling grooves and melodic lead lines to create a wide variety of slamming dance floor originals. Lesser known fact : Not limited to dance music, LWSD's music crosses into many territories. His vast catalogue of hundreds of songs dives into ambient, IDM, electro, acid, house, big beat, indie rock, drones, electronica and down tempo. Dave holds two degrees from the Art Institute of Burnaby for Music Recording and Production. Playing songs and remixes he wrote and produced, Longwalkshortdock performs live PA with live vocals, synthesizers, drum machines, guitar, effects, toys, computers and even some of his own strobes and lighting. Know for his increadably "enthusiastic" performances, longwalkshortdock creates an undeniable stage presence and visceral experience at a show. Break through performances at Soundwave 2009 and Shambhala 2010 have made LWSD an artist to watch out for. He was even recently featured on the legendary Annie Nightingales pod cast on BBC radio 1 as a result of a review received about his "smashing" Shambhala 2011 performance. Longwalkshortdock has performed live with the likes of Phil Western (Download, Skinny Puppy, Kone) and opened for talented artists like, MSTRKRFT, Opiuo, Junkie XL, Vibesquad, Alex Patterson (The Orb), Mimosa, Adam Freeland, Shout out out out out and Matt the Alien too name a few. Always working to enhance and upgrade the LWSD live experience Dave is currently in the process of collaborating with veteran of visual wizardry Tim Hill of RIM Visuals. Using at least 10 projectors loaded with custom content, the live LWSD experience is nothing short of a full venue transformation into a etherial and immersive light cube of doom! Longwalkshortdocks second self-released record entitled "Bigger Fish Frying" follows up on his debut album "Casual Tea" with many signs of progress and promise. Final point of note : Did you know they found him in a cave on the moon? Thats what i heard...
