Heathered Pearls - Salvaged Copper (feat. Terrence Dixon)

This weeks track is another Animal crossing remix! It's been a while since my last AC remix but I really like how this one turned out. You should also go check out my new EP from my side project, Prism Ship. Here's the links:

Animal Crossing - K.K. Synth (Bustello Remix)

This is a little bit of a different piece this week. This was done in collaboration with a family friend to go along with a written piece. The music is very much intertwined with that writing so I will be putting it here for you to read and interpret however you wish...

Reigning Again – by Jeff Frymer

Countless years have passed, yet still we are here, bound to a regressive creeping night that fastens us to history. We stand in the dark as disillusioned sentinels looking out at sodium yellow streetlights that illuminate our ghostly gazes; our jaundice pallor reflected back to us in a rain-specked window. Witnessing eyes draw sharply on solitary raindrops as they spatter into focus, joining their peers precariously moored to the glass by a minefield of misguided tenacity. One by one each drop yields its anchor. Gravity overtakes them and they journey carelessly down the windowpane, absorbing the lost, the misguided, and the vulnerable as they shed all sense of individuality. 

Unintentionally artistic, their kinetic palette paints the collisions of cold clear tributaries. A hidden serenity wends its way down the glass, the rendering peacefully scored by the droning white noise of the storm. Rain falls unremittingly, and no one raindrop considers itself the cause of the impending flood as an ozone-scented must fills the air with the dread of life about to be obliterated. Cloudbursts from billowing giants malevolently pour down from the dark skies. Thundering growls goad the cultish mass of hydraulic lemmings to “Go, go, go! Fulfill your destiny.” 

In the lightning punctuated darkness, beyond the safety of the glass, “they” become the mindless torrent, filling every cracked sidewalk, overwhelming every swale, and swelling to saturation every fissure of the earth. Mordantly transformed, they become the mudslide of devastating self-deception eagerly drowning every last bit of detritus in the maw of its metallic-tasting ruddy flow. Tearing violently at the earth, the erosive mass gains size and menacing momentum, preparing to destroy all things living in its path, to leave in its wake a slickly marred landscape running red with the blood of its lifeless victims.  And finally, no longer without purpose, they exclaim with decisive hubris, “We are the flood!”

A growing army of sandbags quickly crowd together and silently pass word, “They’re coming.  They’re “ALL” coming.” Forced through a venturi of outrage and desperation, each bag binds so tightly to the other that their fearful trembling evades perception. Weighing heavily on each other’s shoulders they stand in grainy protest, guardians against the darkness that marches upon them. Dire rumination fevers their thoughts, that their numbers are too few, that their positions are ill placed, that their efforts are far too late. And still they lean into the fray in hopeful solidarity that together they can make a difference.  “This time,” they pray. “This time will be different. This time, we will stem the roiling flow of bloody-handed ignorance.” This is the time we will right the wrongs of reckless governance that threatens to wash away our humanity, covering it in a blood-stained sea of sociopathic fear, hate, and greed. THIS time, WE will win.

Reigning Again

This week I've got an older track from 2015. This is a favorite of mine and my music has really grown since I made this song. I worked on remastering and remixing it earlier this year but I had some other songs that I was working on to go along with it. As such, keep an eye out for an announcement either this week or next.

Flying Through The Trees (2020 Remaster)

Metroid Prime - Tallon Depths (Bustello Remix)

Cry Some More

I've always been fascinated by the future bass genre but have always had little luck with trying to replicate it. This is the closest I've come so far.

Cosmos

Lungbuster

This week is a new original piece that I really am proud of. Thanks for listening!

If you have the time please support my newest album from my side project! It's a dance concept album based on the video game Bloodborne.

Breathe In The Days

This is the last Metroid Prime remix I've been working on, it rounds out the 4 main areas in the game. The Phazon Mines theme is more of an ambient track so I took the initial track cut it up a little bit and then added a fair amount of original ideas which I think makes this one feel quite a bit different then the other remixes. I'll be putting these four remixes up on bandcamp as a little EP soon hopefully.
