A slow sunrise on the floor. Sub-warmth and a rounded kick carry shimmering pads, glassy plucks, and a melancholy lead that blooms into a wide, melodic hook. “Solace” sits between introspective and uplifting—designed for golden-hour sets, late-night drives, and smooth transitions. Clean intro/outro, tight low-end, gentle tape-style delays, and a soft vocal texture that breathes without crowding the groove.

125 BPM • mix-friendly phrasing • club-ready headroom

Works after deep tech, before progressive / melodic peaks

Solace - Original Mix

Touch-Sensitive slides in on silk pads and a slow tease of 303—warm, slinky, a little dangerous. The filter breathes like skin, resonance brushing the edges while a rubbery bassline and crisp hats lock the hips. The break melts into a whisper of chords, then the cutoff opens and the floor vibrates. Sensual, hypnotic, neon-sweaty.

Touch-Sensitive

Faint Apparition floats on bare essentials — kick, hats, snare—while a distant, edited vocal shimmers like a ghost in the room.

Faint Apparition

Guitar-first, stadium-dark and nostalgic. Chrome Rodeo rides a swung 808 pocket with TM88 melody loops up front—the riff clips into the drop on purpose for grit, while airy keys color the hook. Big halftime swagger at 140 BPM, A# minor for bold, moody flows.

Track facts
• Key/BPM: A# minor (Bb minor) • 140 BPM (Camelot 3A)
• Palette: TM88 guitar + lead layers, add-key sprinkles, saturated 808, tight hats/snare, bar-wide FX tails
• Structure: 8-bar intro → 16-bar hook → 16-bar verse → alt hook (mute keys / add counter-riff) → outro

Chrome Rodeo (140 BPM A# Minor)

Two voices in the dark. A cold lead circles E minor, then the floor tilts into B minor—same palette, different gravity. Sparse drums and air between hits keep the vocal lane wide; low, ominous synth beds glue the switch. Eerie, hypnotic, minimalist at 140 BPM.

Track facts
• Tempo/Keys: 140 BPM • E minor → B minor (dominant pivot)
• Palette: two synth leads (call/response), sub/808, tight kick, dry snare, minimal hats, small-room verb tails
• Structure: 8-bar intro (Em) → 16-bar verse (Em) → hook (Bm) → verse 2 (Em) → alt hook (Bm, thicker bed) → outro

Notes on the key change

Use F# as a common-tone pedal to sell the pivot.

Let C → C# motion announce Bm without adding clutter.

Keep drums identical across sections so the harmony shift feels bigger.

Cold Mod (140 BPM E minor → B minor)

A cold, midnight harp threads the hook while the 808 hits like a door slam—wide, distorted tail with tight control in the lows. Loud, ticking hats and a cracking snare keep the pocket mean; space between notes lets the harp feel ominous instead of pretty. Minimal melody, maximum threat. 125 BPM • F minor for chesty flows and room to ad-lib.

Track facts

Tempo/Key: 125 BPM • F minor (Camelot 4A)

Palette: dark harp motif, saturated 808/sub, loud closed/open hats, sharp snare, riser/stop FX, subtle plate on harp

Structure: 8-bar intro → 16-bar hook → 16-bar verse → hook → outro

Mix notes: 808 low-passed @ 35–40 Hz, sidechain 2–3 dB to kick; snare +2 dB @ 200 Hz for body, de-ess harp @ 6–8 kHz

Harp Eclipse (125 BPM F Minor)

Blown-out energy and clenched-jaw bounce. Black Static rides a chopped, metallic melody with a punch-first 808, clipped transients, and hats that drill straight through the mix. Think Yeat urgency with an X-style snarl—minimal harmony, maximum impact. 140 BPM • D# minor (E♭m).

Track facts

Tempo/Key: 140 BPM • D# minor / E♭m (Camelot 2A)

Palette: chopped synth/guitar timbre, bell accents, occasional timpani/impact hits, saturated 808/sub, tight hats, cracking snare, short room/plate verbs

Black Static (140 BPM D# Minor)

Glass-toy music box over a restless bird-call texture—then the 808 lands heavy and the hats chatter. Night Aviary is eerie, exotic, and punchy at 140 BPM: sparse melody, big low-end, and a snare that cracks through the noise. Built for high-energy flows without clutter.

Track facts

Tempo: 140 BPM

Palette: BWB exotic sample (music box + bird FX), saturated 808/sub, bright closed/open hats, sharp snare, short plate/room tails, riser + stop-downs

Night Aviary (140 BPM)

Silky and weightless. A rounded kick and warm sub carry glassy chords and soft plucks while a breathy pad glides through the stereo field. “Amber Glide” lives in the sweet spot between cruise and lift — made for late-night drives, golden-hour sets, and clean blends. DJ-friendly phrasing, smooth automation, and a wide but controlled low-end.

Track facts

Tempo/Key: 124 BPM • A minor (Camelot 8A)

Palette: rounded kick, warm sub, rubbery bass, glassy chords, airy pad, light tops, tasteful noise sweeps

Structure: radio/club hybrid • 8-bar cold start → 16-bar groove → 8-bar pre-build → 16-bar drop → mini-break → second drop → tag outro

Amber Glide

Guilt Trip hits like a memory you can dance to — anxious bass pressure, skippy hats, and a smoky vocal flicker that keeps side-eyeing your conscience. The groove rolls in under a long, filter-teased intro, then snaps clean: rubbery low-end, punchy kick, and percussive stabs that feel equal parts accusation and escape. The break goes woozy and widescreen — reverb tails smear, delays wobble — like stepping a little too deep into the haze, then the build tightens the screws and the drop lands heavier than before. Rich in flavor but ruthlessly functional, it’s engineered as an extended mix with clear phrase markers and a spotless low-end for the club. 128 BPM, F minor — a literal guilt-trip and a trip through guilt.

Guilt Trip

Just Say Yes! is a siren’s command set to 140 BPM, A minor — rumble kick and skippy hats drive a tunnel while a soft, spellbinding vocal keeps repeating the mantra: Just. Say. Yes. Metallic stabs answer her whispers, delays smear into the break, and a rising pad opens like sky — gold-flower shimmer in the highs — before the drop slams back harder and cleaner. It’s hypnotic and charmed: she shows the way, hands you the key beyond the clouds, and the groove makes the choice for you. Forever under her spell.
