Beautiful track! Loving the sheer unpredictable...ness of it. Bass, chords, keys, percussion, and time signatures all on their own separate journeys.

That piano patch really works; warm and fat with enough bite to take its rightful place in the mix.

Love all the blend of sounds, very expressive

Oleg Yastrebov (Олег Ястребов, @v28yterij7ek) reached out to me to collaborate on a song idea based on an interesting percussion track that Oleg recorded.  I interpreted that recording, set a mood in my mind, and added the accompanying piano, bass and synth lines.  Oleg then added in an awesome groove and vibe on top of that with the drum kit and lush atmospheric harmonies, voices and singers.  Something to pass on the interest.

Do You Like Arpeggio?

I have been tasked with choosing a monster and making a song for it. I chose the kraken. the result is both tense and playful, reminiscent of old video game boss battle music (at least that's what I was going for)

I Seem What You Mean To See In Me

I am very happy to present my first collaboration with Jennifer Roe. 
https://soundcloud.com/jenniferroe
I have admired her beautiful voice on various works of hers, so this is a real treat.
Her heavenly vocals add an emotional level to this track that would otherwise not be possible. It is now our art to share, and for you to hear and feel.

hangin on the inside
so i dont get ripped up
is there anything in here
or is it just me and God

never know the answers
if im just talking to myself
so im just waiting for the answer
or maybe a little help, but

i dont care
i dont care

i dont feel so honest
dont think ive ever been
i dont think that anyone knows me
for more than what I am

so many feelings that I have
what do they all mean
was art just a hobby

i dont care
i dont care

Side Liner - Emotional Diving - 08 Memories

B L U N T • F O R C E • S E R E N I T Y

"I don't always make music.  But when I do, I prefer dynamics.  Stay below -6dB, my friends."

Composition explorations in musical textures, stories and grooves.

I am an amateur composer, producer and musician who has been inspired and influenced by music my entire life.  Beyond my interests in developing harmony and rhythm ideas, a song’s timbres and textures have always held a deeper emotional grip on me.  This passion for tone has dominated my compositions and productions, which are combined with playful melodies and progressions that are immersed in sophisticated soulful beats.

B L U N T • F O R C E • S E R E N I T Y is led by Robin Benjamins and features collaborations with composers and musicians from down the road, and from around the world.  These artists are:
