Original Music

I don’t understand how I missed that I had already uploaded this song to SoundCloud under the title ‘Overcast Afternoon’ on the day that I made it in 2018. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ https://soundcloud.com/matthewmcvickar/overcast-saturday?in=matthewmcvickar/sets/original-music

---

For several months I’ve had a song in my head, one that I thought I made, but I could not find it anywhere. Today I found it! I made this four years ago and I think it's pretty good.

I don’t remember exactly what I used to make this, but I’m fairly certain the underlying arpeggio is from an OP-1 and the backwards-sounding synth and the louder brassy one that comes in later are both from a Volca FM.

I started listening to ambient music properly during lockdown as a way of trying to heal from heartbreak as well as a coping mechanism to deal with what was going on around the world. I was pulling together playlists of tracks that made my heart sing or weep, to soundtrack my daily walks around the canals of berlin or the quiet residential area where i grew up and ended up moving back to. These playlists were the start of the sounds of healing series and my journey of digging deeper into ambient soundscapes via my refuge worldwide residency. It’s a genre that I probably would say I have the biggest emotional connection to right now, in the way that it has helped me through some really difficult times in the last four years. So it was an honour to bring this to the club space for the first time for playbody 002, a party run by some of my wonderful  friends. Sounds of healing vol. 5 is a glimpse of what I played during that after hours set, in what became one of the most beautiful settings with the lights dimmed, a candlelight by the decks, people curled up with each other on various platforms, kissing, or deep in conversation. It was touching to witness people have the same emotional reaction to the music as me; people coming up and saying how a track or artist had saved their life or that they just wanted to have this personal moment with the music, away from the conversation. It was deeply vulnerable to play some of these tracks to a group of people, some being strangers but it very much aligns with the journey I’ve been on recently. And with this mix, I’m not only sharing that moment with you but I’m bottling up this feeling and keeping it close to me forever.

Stretch (2022-06-25)

Waxahatchee is my favorite artist of the last decade and I made this thinking we'd be the only people in the world who would want to play trance edits of MJ Lenderman and Waxahatchee but after we played it on Kiosk Radio in Brussels we got so many DMs about it I decided to set it free on here.  - T

Hi all,

Heart Somersault Radio is a new personal mix series from me ft unreleased music, club tracks, new productions, and DJ sets I’ve recorded live at shows.   I’ve been in more of a dance floor headspace for a while, so decided to do something with that energy.

Enjoy,

Tom

Heart Somersault Radio 01 (Tom VR)

This is a collection of snippets of music I’ve been working on and a taste of what I’ll be playing at the April 2nd show ‘Abstracted’ at Ford Food & Drink in Portland, OR.

Every piece of sound in my new material is sourced from either the Critter & Guitari Pocket Piano, the Nanoloop app, homemade tape loops, or my own field recordings. There are no drum samples or software synthesizers, and all effects are either the Line 6 DL4 delay pedal, Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail reverb pedal, or the stock Ableton Live effects.

The photo—a layout of some of my equipment—is inspired by Marcus Fischer's photos: https://www.instagram.com/p/_-HezYH6f9/

PAMMIX019 (2016) MALLGRAB “INNA VISION” JUNGLE MIX

I’ve been trying to make music every day this year to practice. Here’s last night’s entry. I made a simple synth using Ableton Live’s Analog instrument, improvised some chords on it, then improvised on top of it with the Pocket Piano through the Boss DD-7. Added some birds I recorded on my phone a few weeks ago.

Morning Birds (February 2017)

Equipment:
- Teenage Engineering OP-1 synthesizer
- Korg Volca FM synthesizer
- Boss DD-7 delay pedal
- TC Electronic Hall of Fame 2 reverb pedal
- Ableton Live for recording and arrangement
