"Morphic fields are the organizing fields of self-organizing systems at all levels of complexity.  They underly the organization of minds, bodies, crystals, plants, molecules, stars, and galaxies.  They are the fields that give things their form, their shape, and their organization." 

This is an unmastered version of this tune, and it's the first track on the "EP" I'm producing for my final project at Berklee.

Morphic Field

Never forget that everything is perfect always. This one's got a lot of love in it, enjoy!

"At the very beginning, there's this white light, and it's so bright that it uh... Annihilates you entirely.  And it gives you... It's like starting off with a fresh canvas."

Sentient Number Six // Gaggalacka 2023 DJ set

Releasing Oct. 31 on Sacred Macabre Crew VA Full Moon Freqz !

Witch's Wisdom

"Subterranean Tendencies" is a thrilling and intense electronic auditory pathway dedicated to those who have a tendency to journey through the depths of the underground. The ominous and brooding tone from the first track is set, with pulsating beats and distorted synths creating a sense of unease and foreboding.

Throughout the album, the listener is immersed in a world of subterranean beings, with the tracks taking on sinister and mysterious qualities. The beats are on the heavier end of the psychedelic trance spectrum, while the melodies are twisted and distorted, creating an unsettling atmosphere that never lets up.

Despite the dark tone, there is also a sense of beauty and awe in the music, with moments of ethereal and otherworldly soundscapes that provide a contrast to the heavier tracks. The album is a sonic exploration of the experimental aspects of psychedelic trance

Overall, "Subterranean Tendencies" is a bold and uncompromising statement from Post Modern Music, showcasing a niche in electronic music production and an unflinching commitment to exploring the deeper side of sound.

Ectogasmics - Love & Understanding (Sentient Number Six Remix)

I wanted to experiment with writing some ambient music today using just my analog synths, and this is the result!

This piece is comprised of 3 parts - a drone, a bass pattern, and a counterpoint pattern. 

The bass pattern is comprised of a 5-note cycle, and the counterpoint uses a 4-note cycle, resulting in a sequence of 20 harmonic dyads which then repeats.

I recorded two takes each for the bass and counterpoint in real-time with automation by hand each way through, and then panned both takes for each part left and right in order to create a more 3D stereo field.

Each piece was recorded using a Dreadbox Erebus running through an additional analog filter and digital FX section from the Dreadbox Typhon, with some EQ, compression, and a tape machine emulation added in Ableton, with very gentle limiting on the master.

Definitely going to be doing more ambient soon! Had a lot of fun with this, hope you enjoy! <3

20201212 Ambient Experiment

I used a pretty similar process with this piece as with the last one. It's made of a drone, a 6-beat bass cycle, and two intertwining 7-beat melody cycles, resulting in an unevenly repeating melodic phrase.

Each part except for the drone was double-tracked with independent live automation done by hand on each take, recorded in real-time using a Dreadbox Erebus running through the additional filter and FX section of a Dreadbox Typhon.

An additional foresty field recording was added underneath everything mixed very quietly, and I decided to use a few instances of EchoBoy on each of the melodic phrases with some automation to add a little more movement and depth.

Hope you enjoy my friends <3

~ Deep, ritualistic Darkpsy from the Appalachian Mountains ~

Now based in Berlin, Germany, Sentient Number Six is the darkpsy project of Matthew Martinez, who was born in Virginia, USA in 1992.

Heralding a fearsome coalescence of all things dark and psychedelic, his production style is characterized by deep, ominous basslines, immersive, layered atmospheres, and a sinister palette of organic and synthetic leads.

"To me, every track is a ritual in and of itself. I strive to create an intentional, emotional journey for the listener, culminating in an authentic and transcendent dancefloor experience."
