“Humid”
A hazy flip for TPC404. Made this one with the windows up, MPC pads lit, and the ceiling fan spinning slow.
Rain in the background, soul in the foreground.

Humid

“Red Bird” is a soulful, sample-based instrumental rooted in memory, melody, and the quiet strength of the South. Built with dusty textures, gospel-tinted harmonies, and boom bap drums, it feels like a faded photograph brought to life. Inspired by porch nights, vinyl crackle, and the Spirit moving unseen.

Made on the MPC and SP-404, with no extra saturation—just raw intention.

🕊️ For the ones who keep flying, even when the sky feels heavy.

“Ticklin’ the Ivories”
A grimy boom-bap journey where dusty piano loops meet raw MPC swing. SideKeyC blends gritty textures, jazz ghost-notes, and neck-snapping drums into a haunted jazz club of the mind. Think noir film meets back alley beat tape. Crafted for The Producers Corner challenge, this track tiptoes the line between spooky and soulful—perfect for moonlit crate digging sessions.

Flip of "Crossover Haiku"

A gritty, jazz-drenched boom bap journey through late-night streets and hazy memories. Chopped, flipped, and dusted with analog warmth—this one hits like a midnight walk under flickering streetlights.

One of my first projects back in 2014 buried on my PC. A lot of life has happened since then... but I would call this a foundation for this particular endeavor. I hope you enjoy!
