This is my first official release with my voice in it! I was feeling inspired by Falling Behind by Laufey, and I wanted to incorporate that bossa nova type of rhythm into an upbeat retrowave piece. I started with the chord progression, bass line, and drums, and then the rest came naturally. It wasn't going to have vocals at first, but the instrumental felt too good to not have any. I listened to it in the car and sang along until something stuck, and it ended up being about when I met my incredible partner. Turns out writing lyrics is really easy when you have someone to sing about :) I later recorded what I came up with and ran it through a vocoder. Anyway, because this is chillsynth, I also included the instrumental in the release!

I had a lot of fun with this track and I hope you love it as much as I do!

SARE - Song of Storms

This is my entry to The Sound of Scenesat Vol. 5. which was released on February 9th (https://music.scenesat.com).

This song started out as a very short jingle for my new Synthpop Tutorial series on Youtube. It had the potential to become a full song so it basically evolved from those initial 10 seconds of happy, go lucky synth thing. Lots of Nexus2, Roland XP-80, JV-880, Yamaha XS7, TX-816, TX81z and Motifrack. Crack open a Coke and chew on some bubblegum! ;)

Before the Ages of Man (feat. Luke Nemitz)

A collaboration with Blue.Nocturne (https://soundcloud.com/bluenctrn) & entry for the MIDI Death Battle at battle of the bits. Placed 1st out of 30 tracks!

**
We fought through so many battles, gone through so many challenges, overcome so much together.
But all of this was for naught, as every single future that was prophesied ends in failure.

It is fate.
No matter what we do, the world will be destroyed, and everyone will die.

As I look upon my companions, they stand with somber expressions.
Bodies caked with dirt, tired dull eyes that stare blankly at our impossible task ahead.
The Destroyer of Worlds awaits us, patiently mocking us for our inevitable demise.

Although defeat seems like the only possibility, I remember a phrase that my grandfather once said.
"As long as you still have hope, you can make the impossible happen."
I grasp my sword and with a determined face, I turn to the others.
Though I say not a word, my feelings are conveyed through my unyielding eyes.

Everyone begins to realize that there is no going back, that this is something that needs to be done.
We have to hope that the prophecies are wrong...no, we will prove that they are wrong.
Since we are those who defy fate!
