Technical Difficulties is a set of electronic tracks built from trial, error, and things breaking at the wrong time. It’s rough around the edges on purpose — simple loops, glitches, and ideas that came together while fixing problems or creating new ones. Nothing overthought. Just clean, direct electronic work with a darker tone running through it.

Technical Difficulties

#ambient #lofi #electronic #experimental #soundtrack #glitch #darkambient #cinematic #tapehiss #moody

Lo-fi electronic track built around warped melodies and decaying textures.
Recorded in pieces, stitched back together wrong on purpose.
It’s about burnout, memory loops, and the stuff you can’t fix but can’t let go of either.

No vocals. Just feeling.

For fans of ambient noise, cracked synths, and late nights that don’t end right.

When the city tilts on its axis and the streetlights hum like they know your name, this is the sound that spills out of the cracks. Sideways isn’t clean, it isn’t polished—it’s the moment you lean against the wall at 3 a.m., feeling like the universe could fold in on itself and you wouldn’t even flinch. Chicago static, rain-slick asphalt, a pulse that drags you forward even when you don’t want to move.

This is for the ones who feel the night stretch thin and keep walking anyway.

Sideways


Mem Glitj leans into warped melodies and fractured rhythms, pulling that feeling of a memory stuttering in place. It mixes soft pads with glitchy edges and a low, steady pulse that keeps everything moving. It’s introspective without dragging, electronic without overloading — just a simple, broken little loop that hits the right nerve.

Missing Someone You’ve Never Met sits in that space between nostalgia and static — a slow, drifting track built around soft pads, distant melody lines, and a pulse that barely holds together. It’s simple, quiet, and a little disoriented, pulling at that feeling of longing without knowing exactly why or for who. A small moment of emotional interference turned into sound.

Missing someone you've never met



A slow-burn panic attack disguised as a lullaby. Broken circuits humming under the floorboards, the kind of insomnia that starts as a whisper and ends up filling the whole room with static. It loops on purpose—because that’s what those nights feel like. Half-dreaming, half-drowning, replaying the same thought until it wears a groove in your skull.

It’s the sound of your body begging for sleep while your brain keeps flicking the lights back on.

Turn it up late. It hits harder when you’re already tired.

Stay Awake

Incognito Arcade is a Chicago-based electronic musician who cut his teeth on punk before stepping back to reassess the scene. With it no longer being 2001 and time in short supply, he traded basement shows for a corporate gig, living out of hotel rooms and producing music on the road. His sound pulls from post-punk, hard bop jazz, grindcore, and cinematic scores, shaped by the isolation of being alive in a crowded world while the crumbling infrastructure and urban decay of the Midwest paint the backdrop. His influences include Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Orbital, Daft Punk, Boards of Canada, and Clint Mansell.
