This is an album that I made in 2002/2003 on Fruity Loops v3.0.
I was going to music school at the time, and decided to try producing.
This is a mix of me exploring the program and my mind.

The style is a Happy Hardcore-ish Nintendo sound.

Enjoy!

As I have now begun to release my first “official” Cottage Core album, I have recategorized this album as Cottage Core as well. It does not take a big leap to figure out that this was the early inspiration for the style that I am now redeveloping.

One Man's Twisted Mind

A few rap tracks I made in 2011. Originally had lyrics, now lost to time.
I like to use them for free-styling.

I have been developing several styles, one of which I consider to be in the Neo Trance genre. Explorations of the Hidden Worlds is my first album of this style.

Exploration of the Hidden Worlds

Cottage Core is a style that I originally developed in the early 2000’s. It was originally heavily influenced by Happy Hardcore Techno. This Album is a reentry into my development of this style. There are many resemblances to my younger self’s version of this style, however I am certainly adding various influences from my years of exploring my own musicality. I hope you enjoy this style as I develop it.

Cottage Core Vol. 1 - Welcome to the Cottage 

Cottage Core is a style that I originally developed in the early 2000’s. It was originally heavily influenced by Happy Hardcore Techno. This Album is a reentry into my development of this style. There are many resemblances to my younger self’s version of this style, however I am certainly adding various influences from my years of exploring my own musicality. I hope you enjoy this style as I develop it.

Track One - The Cottage Door Opens 

This track is your entry into the Cottage Core World. When I started to rediscover, in my mind, what I now call Cottage Core, this track was not originally on the “list” of Cottage Core songs. 

I started making this song before I began redeveloping the style. Maybe for that reason, I feel like this song is a bit of a crossover with my Neo Trance style. 

After much consideration, however, I decided that it is most certainly Cottage Core; not completely, but a segued entry into the style.

The Cottage Door Opens

This is the third track on my upcoming album, Explorations of the Hidden Worlds. I have been developing several styles, one of which I consider to be in the Neo Trance genre. This album is my first of this style.

Theta waves are brainwaves with a frequency between 4 and 7.5 Hertz (cycles per second). They are associated with states of relaxation, deep meditation, daydreaming, and are often observed during sleep, especially REM sleep and the transition between wakefulness and sleep. Theta waves are also linked to memory consolidation and emotional regulation.

Harmonic Frequencies are positive integer multiples of the fundamental frequency of a signal. The fundamental frequency is also called the 1st harmonic; the other harmonics are known as higher harmonics.
