432hz healing Shruti/vocals

A high-energy, instrumental electronic dance music track with a driving beat and a prominent melody. The song features a consistent tempo of 130 BPM and is in the key of F minor. The instrumentation primarily consists of a powerful kick drum, a crisp snare, a pulsating bassline, and a lead synthesizer playing the main melody. The track incorporates a build-up section with a rising synth arpeggio and a filtered drum loop, leading into a drop where the full beat and melody re-enter with increased intensity. Production elements include sidechain compression on the bass and synths, creating a pumping effect, and a wide stereo image for the lead synth. There are no vocals present in the piece. The song structure is crescendointro, build-up, drop, breakdown, build-up, drop, outro.

Rurik

"Deep beneath the forest, there is magic all around,
With music, dance and laughter, yet you'll barely hear a sound,
But if you're very still, you may hear a fiddle play,
As tiny creatures celebrate another splendid day."

- Beneath the Forest, by Francess Harris

I am still looking, trying and experimenting, I really like electronic ambient for many years, but it only works as a live percussionist. In short, nothing is black or white:)
In today's hectic world I need quiet sounds and the vast majority of songs created at night, so are my compositions such as they are.

My tracks is based on the absolute freedom of the use of sound. Arises as if I painted a picture. In the head is the base, and then adding the details here and there.
As well as if I were his music told the story.

I use: Ableton-Live-Suite with Partnerinstrumets, Kontakt Player + virtual instrumentzs,NI-Machine, Ableton Push, Acces Virus TI Snow, Waldorf Blofeld, AKAI MPK 49, Korg Microkorg XL+,KORG Kaossilator,Kaosspad,KORG Wavedrum, Roland HPD 20, nord lead A1 r, Yamaha mx49, Roland Edirol for Fieldrecordings - and various live percussion.(Kalimba, frame drum, tombak, koshi etc)
