Lyrics:

Every day is a little more crowded
Watching these people rushing by
Every day is a little more stifled
Wandering when it’s my time to die

To feel my existence is justified
I’d give anything I ever had
Some bonds are cut quickly
While some are hanging by a thread

Familiar faces
in obituaries
Familiar faces
say they don’t love me
familiar faces
too many miles away
familiar faces
can’t remember my name

familiar faces
they’re frail and they’re graying
familiar faces
are replaced by strangers
I don’t want to be here
don’t want to be here
don’t want to be here
when everyone’s gone

Maybe tomorrow will be different
In fact, I know for sure it will
In ways we never could imagine
Yet we silently resist

Should you try to carve out relevance
Or hide away, you can’t decide
Life dragged on and now it’s over
Relax, it’s nature’s genocide

(Obsolescence
Obsolescence
Obsolescence
Obsolescence)

Who the hell are you?
Where the hell am I?
So fucking sorry
for not saying goodbye
I’m still alive
and don’t get why
It feels so wrong
should I apologize?

YOU ARE MY BEST AUDIENCE,...
and I am "Audiomaker" and would like to welcome you to my Soundcloud page. My real name is Torsten Schardt. I have been make music in my spare time for several years. With my small but fine setup, consisting of constantly changing synthesizers, groove boxes, drum machines and a laptop, I produce a wide variety of electronic music styles in my living room, from electropop, to house and techno or even breakbeats. It's a hobby for me and I only do it for fun. So be a little understanding if everything doesn't sound perfect, like it came from a professional studio. 

Soundcloud is my only big stage because I can neither be seen live nor heard on other music platforms.
I hope that you, like me, are looking for new music and interesting sounds and take a moment to listen to me. Because every listener is my audience.
Therefore... Please play my tracks and if you like them, follow me and give your feedback.

Thank you !!!
We hear each other!!!!

I am doktorb. I scour the internet looking for waveforms to deconstruct  and build sonic structures out of the debris.

In my mission of creative destruction I have chanced upon a number of willing co-conspirators who you should also check out.

NB trans girl from NY now Tampa.  I play synths and drum machines.  Anything you hear on here was either done with my software or hardware synths, occasionally using samples.  

Inspired to play synths by sci-fi sound tracks and other trans women I'm friends with who play.  I share a birthday with Wendy Carlos so I guess it was in the stars?  Trans girl, into synths & making electronic music.  Apart from soundtracks most of my inspiration comes from cold wave, darkwave, post punk, synthwave, low-fi, gothic & punk music.  

If my solo work has slowed a bit I was away on vacation, and shortly after getting back I joined a band.  I am still working on my solo stuff though and have big plans for 2020 musically.

Although I love and respect numerous genres, I won't claim loyalty to any of them through my music. I only attempt to write what I would like to hear.

Musical aspects aside, I seek to promote empathy for the world as a whole (not centered around humanity or certain traditionally-accepted groups of people) through my art. Therefore, my music will often have themes of antihumanism, antinatalism and support for assisted suicide. I view the individual human as valuable and worthy of love, but humans' collective behaviors as cancerous and detrimental to ourselves and most other life forms.

I love discovering new music and would like to improve myself as an artist as well. Recommendations and/or constructive criticism are always welcome. :)

(This account used to be primarily for game music I was writing for a retro-style game I was developing, but the project has been on hold for some time right now. Probably I'll make another account for that as this one will focus on dark electro/politically-themed music.)
