2000

GirlMob

In The Tunnel

Rhythmic Noise

The Ship of Theseus

IDM track with a focus on bit crush distortion and airy elements emerging from it.  This track is moody and meant to push out waves of melancholy while carrying just enough groove to guide the listener.  When the parts started coming together, the bit crushed elements sounded so desolate that I couldn't resist finding some soulful sounds to create a heavy mood.  Honestly, I felt like I could have taken this one a lot further - so maybe in the future I'll turn this into a proper full length track.

Moving On - Ebmin 175bpm

Jungle track with a focus on transforming classic rock samples into a fresh modern piece.  This track brings hard grooves with dark chaotic vibes to fill out a room with grit teeth and moving feet.  So this track was originally put together for a beat challenge, but some unexpected travel left me missing the deadline. This might have been the fortunate curse as I really got the chance to wrestle this one around and make it my own at the end of the day.  

Oh Fortunate Curse - Bmin 165bpm

Dnb track with a focus on heavily distorted breaks and textured vocals.  This track throws out pure chaos with massive transitions and erupting breaks designed to showcase the frustrations of love.  Honestly, this track feels like a sin against the drum and bass genre, but sometimes sinning just feels so good. 

Lover - Gmin 168bpm

Rainforest Reverie (part II)

Breakbeat track with a focus on textured leads and clean, heavy breaks. This track is driven by bleak, melancholy melodics amidst hopeful themes for more mundane times bleeding through throughout. Honestly, I have worked on this one far too long. It has driven me a little crazy, so I am elated to finally get it off my plate to anyone else tired of these interesting times.

Interesting Times - Dmin 155bpm
