The Android Trap presents an original cinematic / soundtrack style composition as a follow-up to "March of the Cyberpunks". The Vanguard blends electronic/synths sounds and classical influences in a track that could befit a futuristic video game soundtrack or as a TV / Film theme.

The Android Trap is working on fantasy futuristic style electronic music with EDM, rock/pop and classical overtones. The influence is robots / drones / A.I. and cyberspace fantasy.

Cyber Warz. The Vanguard

Written for my wife based on the Valentines card I bought her.

MY LOVE, MY SOULMATE

I look at you and feel so proud to share our home and our life 
So glad to be your husband so happy you're my wife. 

I look at you and see ev'rything that we've achieved together. 
A wonderful family and so many plans that have brought us closer than ever. 

I look at you and know for sure dreams really do come true.
I see the love that fills my life each time that I look at you.

c2025 "Gotta Get Naughty" 
The Hutch has again produced another earworm track, cheeky and socials-ready anthem with “Gotta Get Naughty” which blends a punchy hook with bold pop flair, upfront kick and bass with bright synth lines. An ideal track for those influencers or short-form TikTok style videos. The rap style vocal and sing-a-long "Gotta Get Naughty" chorus will have listeners nodding heads, moving bodies and tapping feet in no time! Perfect for playlists like EDM Pop, Chart Music, Modern Rap and electronica. Go on … Get naughty!

- - - 
This new release is an electronic pop-dance style track. This is quite experimental for me and not sure if it works, to be honest! It has a bouncy paced feel with rap style vocals and a "Get Naughty" hook. It actually started out to be a Chris Lake inspired track, minimalist, kick/bass dominant and simple synth sounds.... but went in a different direction, as is often the case. See what you think.

Logic - The Very Short Introductions Podcast - Ep 3

" We Seek To Control" by The Android Trap. 
++ c2021 Original Music by D. Cook.
++ Part of the Android Trap E.P. : https://soundcloud.com/made-in-the-hutch/sets/the-android-trap-e-p
++ Again a new genre for me but one I enjoyed making as I have a limited set of devices right now. So this was an unplanned "happy accident" recorded entirely with Ableton stock digital instruments and FXs. 

++ So I was learning Simpler (an Ableton Sample Player) to make a new bass sound and then added a 606 Drum Kit. I randomly produced a Trap beat to start with and added simple chords. After seeing the Droid image by Erik McLean, it sparked off a sequence of inspiration.  Using synths I have a new composition and two more similar in progress. I may make a 3 track "mini EP" of this probably under "The Android Trap" if all goes well. 
++ Enjoy... FEEDBACK WELCOME !!! Hit the LIKE please.

We Seek To Control

The Android Trap: We Seek To Control

I love music. I was born into a musical family, and had one piano lesson as a child, but it was no fun and I gave up. 

As a teenager I played piano and guitar by ear. After twenty-five though, life got in the way.

In mid-life I rediscovered music, and I've been making up for lost time. "Music is enough for a lifetime but a lifetime is not enough for music", someone said.

Writing and collaboration are what I enjoy most now. As an amateur I write what I want to hear. But I hope you find something you enjoy. Thank you for listening.
