I’ve been sitting on these beats for a while. A few of these ideas started taking shape while I was finishing up No Time To Overthink, and in a lot of ways, this project feels like a continuation—or maybe a sequel—to that one.

This is my latest batch of beats, loops, and sketches, all crafted on the Roland SP-404 mk2. Lately, I’ve been shifting my focus back toward electronic and club music, and this might end up being the last moirésun release for a while. I’m working on a new project that better fits where my sound is heading.

I hope this one sets the mood.

Lord Dredstorm - Dredstorm Loves You (EP)
Pulled from a stash of unreleased loops. Dredstorm Loves You is four soulful instrumentals and one haunting rework - stitched together as a a love letter in loops.

Filtered vocals, piano runs, guitar grooves and chopped soul cry out warmth and reflection. There's no hook, no hype - just raw feeling from Lord Dredstorm.

Originally shared in pieces. Now sequenced for full impact.
From the Lodge vaults, with love.
