Quiet Optimism

I'm a sound designer and music composer for audiovisual productions. I dabble in a bit of everything within this field. 😉

Electronic  music producer from South Africa. I love mixing genres. Music is an emotional expression of art. The sound, melody, base and beats should take you on a journey when you listen to music. We are all here to learn and express our inner beat. Don't dim the base....ever.

Since 2007 NASP is a OMA (OneManArmy) a solo project entirely made by me Alexandre Santos born and raised @ Porto in Portugal.
That said, here´s a little global description for my sound:
"The world created by Not a Side Project is a mix of dark and light, war and peace, high peaks and fluid valleys, where silences become loud and the blend of guitar and drums carries the listener in a sublime trip through ominous atmospheres."
So...
Thank you very much for stopping by and listen to my music, and, if you somehow liked something around here just go and take a peek at my links section below and spread some love by following, commenting, messaging or do whatever´s on your mind at the time XD I mean it!
See you around! Cheers!

P.S. - Besides cover art, no AI was or will ever be used for the making of my music. 

Been producing on Ableton for a few years now and try to produce new tracks whenever I get the time. House and dance music tends to be my favourite, but will pretty much listen to anything. Hope you enjoy my music 😊
