PS: I don't know what happened during the upload process, I feel like some songs quality diminished for some reason. I tried re-uploading but no difference. The quality is better on youtube though.

Youth EP by Soullus (José Lopes SMP3)

How the concept started:
I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of nostalgia and youth, so one of my aims with this project was to encompass all of it onto a few tracks with different moods and striving to “hit” different emotional points of the listener. 
For example, the track “Saudade” could be described as the happier one of the bunch, “Youth” really tries to aim for people that played videogames when they were younger and “Afternoon Coffee” is a representation of the afternoons “you” spent as a kid just messing around, playing until you were tired and probably had to go home for dinner.
The “Intro” and “Outro” are the most mature songs of the bunch in the EP, I made it this way because it’s one of my aims as an artist, to evolve my sound and also appeal to a more adult audience, while also maintaining some of the techniques and somewhat goofy sounds I used on the previously mentioned tracks.

Experimentation:
There is a lot of experimentation in this album, from certain drum patterns I hadn’t used before, sounds that were a result of experimenting with new plugins that evolved my quality as a producer and an overall combination of different moods and genres that ended up sounding really good together and adding more experience expanding my horizons as to what sort of things/sounds can be combined and can sound interesting when put together. 
Another aspect of the tracks that even though it doesn’t show up often, it still adds to the overall “being young and enjoying youth” experience, is the addition of swing in the songs like “Youth” and “Coffee Afternoon”. In both of these songs, at the end sections, they both have swing versions of the previous parts of the songs, which I thought, added a lot to the quality of the EP.

How I put it all together:
Some of these songs had already been produced last summer, for example, “Saudade” was made in August of last year.
Once I came back to university and had to pick a concept, I knew I wanted to go in this particular direction, a more melodic direction, because I knew that, even though it might not sound like it , for some, there is a lot of emotion in these tracks. Essentially, these songs tell a story of who I was (and am) and what I hope to become. 
After I had done the three main songs, excluding the “Intro” and “Outro”, I knew (and wanted) I had to make two songs that would open and finish the EP with very emotional charged combination of sounds, almost ethereal, in a sense. For the “Intro”, it was like looking back in time, and the “Outro”, shows my hopes for the future and how scared, but also, excited I am for it to come.
