When I started Project AER in 2020, I saw the opportunity blend the sounds I loved in ambient, post-rock and emo music with the chilled and laidback beats and sounds of lofi.

In 2022, I began experimenting doing things the other way round with the goal of making a record that felt like post-rock / emo first, and lofi second.
I dabbled away at a handful of demos on and off until late 2023 when my feelings towards the shifting state of lofi inspired me to write an *album* - no batches, no writing for playlists, just making something that felt fresh to me.

Enter All Notes Replica - my favourite album I've ever made as Project AER - a collection of songs capturing snapshots of my life, my relationship with music, and somewhat of a reminder for me to slow down and try new things once in a while.

I say my music is special a lot, but I have genuinely never meant it more than right now. This album means the world to me.

It's the longest I've spent on a Project AER record, with so many moments where it has either moved me to tears or brought me so much comfort and joy.
It's now turned me into a bundle of nerves as I write this, but I am equally excited to finally get to share it with you.

I could talk forever about the meanings and everything behind these songs, but for now, I invite you to listen and I hope you enjoy this album.

I listen to music while maintaining websites and it helps keep my mind focused & engaged. (Plus it's just more fun than working in silence!)! I want to help share some of the songs and artists that help me throughout my day. :)

I'll be reposting mostly lo-fi, chill, and chillstep. Some indie and indie-folk. And maybe a few humorous things I hear along the way. ;)

Project AER started in March 2019 by UK-based Producer Alex Reade as a testing ground for figuring out where to go next.

Alex's music roots started through his discovery and love of Emo, Rock & Punk genres in Secondary School. Picking up a guitar a year later, he has released music under countless aliases such as Almost Anyone & Little Music.

With a decade passed through experimentation of sounds in various genres, Project AER's signature sound has been built and refined to reflect a blend of dreamy ambience and guitar-driven beats.

I make beats as a way of coping with the struggle of life, the hurt that is inflicted from harshness of life, and the depression  that I've gained due to this confusing existence. I hope my music can help in the lives of others, even if it helps them escape reality for a minute.
