Always reminds me (2024 /  Harmonic Progressive Ambient Electro)

.... this track describes my inner mind/brain, how I feel at the moment, after a very loved person died..... it's a mix of suffering, hope and going forward, a bit disharmonic, but that should be like that..... I don't recommend to listen to it, when you suffering by yourself, it's very emotional... written/created 50% from my subconscious....

suffer = distorted saw leads
hope = pads/arps
looking forward = drums & bass + effects

( yt visual fx: https://youtu.be/8pLW3urWTYo )

Pointer (2024 / Harmonic Progressive Ambient Groove)

...second extended version..... added some instruments, adjusted a couple of things, added new fx lines for the drums...... It is a very pumping emotional harmonic track... dont be afraid.... it's a track to look forward in hope...

Knocks (2025 / Progressive Psytrance Groove)

Music should unite us all. To rekindle our hope for humanity and pragmatism in this world to build a better future for us all...

..oO(Sometimes I like to listen to music with my eyes closed, just to escape reality a little.)Oo..

A small light in the darkness can sometimes shine brighter than anything else you could remember.

-=[ Yeah=>50h of own music ]=-
{- with [re]mixes & doubles 100h -}

In the future (1 year) I will do a complete reboot of my music style.... not so much different from the instruments/sounds, but more detailed and a bit slower (around 70-142bpm) ....

Important: When you have the possibility, try to listen/hear it with a Dolby Atmos Addin/Plugin (Windows - pay app / macOS - dont know if it is free, I think depends on the version / iOS - mostly included/ Android - mostly included). The sound's coming up much clearer/more clean... especially when you have the right setup up for your sound system / headphones / etc (disable other DSP configurations - when possible , choose Dolby Atmos, if possible). Best hearing/listing experience I have with my Bose Headphone (Full/Over head-ear) and the Dolby Atmos Addin enabled. (I don't use the software for creating music, only for listening the final track, it has to be balanced/plain)

My music is always an emotional journey/ride.... for myself, music is to express my emotions and feelings.... when it sounds nice and smooth... even better.... dont judge me for that....I'm not perfect.... but I'll work on that...every year, every month, every day, when it is possible ;)
Everything I mix or publish (also the old tracks) is usually at least Dolby 5.1, for some even 6.1. (Dolby Atmos optimized) mixed, but not fully mastered (only compressors, limiter, volume).

Music are emotions and feelings (like a journey to your feelings or those of others) .... and a bit of math ^^ Enjoy the flowing rhythm. My music represents my inner self, so if you like it, you understand a bit of me and my soul ^^

All my own tracks are Creative Common, so enjoy it, even with downloads. Only the OTK Remix/Mixes are not CC, I dont own the copyright for these tracks/samples.

OTK = my DJ synomym/alias (this is for my mixing/dj parts)

Nearly all of my tracks are uploaded flac-encoded .... in high resolution (up to 88K).... Remixes/Mixes are different, because the original tracks are not flac -encoded

Btw: especially the slow songs/tracks represent my subconscious feelings/emotions so far

Ps: My output rate is very high at the moment, because I take every chance to build a new track, when I have time for it..... and even this isnt everything so far .... my pile is huge..... 12 years of accumulated ideas....
and don't misunderstand the "Preview" tag (in title or tag), it's a tag for me, because these tracks usually are not mastered in a prober way like it should be.....

Pss: For all people who send me messages to contact them about extending my music range (for $/€/etc).... I'm not interested.... my music results from feelings.... and you can't put a price tag on real feelings from emotions.... my music is free and ever will be.... everybody should able to listen.... the only reason to contact me about that would be live events.....

Btw: My comments on my own tracks have only educational purposes...

Hint:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLSoIWn9ZMc (Modular Synthesizer explanation by Fewjar)

This is my idea for working together on a track with more then 2 people. The idea is free to adding or amend things:

Idea:
-Virtual Machine with a DAW for multiple User with a latency control. (Microsoft based, application streaming, Citrix have an established technology for that, but it is also possible create something for free with special RDP Connections. It have to be Microsoft based, because there is no real good virtualization for macOS ARM based computers)

Requirements:
-VM (enough ressources for the hardware performance: 16 Cores, 64GB RAM, 500GB HD, Hardwarebased Audio Device - Passthrough or virt. shared Device, 2+x NICs)
-new udp protocol settings for latency client analyzing (ping retrieval setting 10ms and back report to the DAW VM) and adjusting the main pattern with collide check (should be support a hash check for packages)
-(CDN) Access Points for a better performance/latency
-Audio redirect, maybe over a virtual VST device as channel pass through to the DAW, also combined with the UDP protocol
-Important: the latency and protocol (this is something, what I might have to code by myself)
-separate audio channels over a different nic port (UDP) - flac realtime encoded (may be by an separate encoding section =>part of a NVIDIA/AMD graphic card which only operates for encoding for the whole system, RDP, Audio, Video, etc).

Every idea or suggestion is welcome. :)
