I can't get enough of it, it's so catchy!

SugarSynth: "Don't follow me!!! xD"


-------------

"Tell me something"
"Why is it that when I pull they always push"
"But when I push they always pull?"

Keep it low, I keep it slow,
Waiting for the tide to show, yeah.
Track the clue, lose control
Reach and see the color go cold.
Don’t know why, but it’s always push and pull.
Oh, always push and pull,
Always push and pull,
Always pushing.

I don’t care if I don’t sleep,
Someone else can count the sheep, yeah.
When I stop aiming deep,
Everything I need is at my feet.
I don’t know why, guess it’s always push and pull.
Oh, when I stop the chase, it’s full... always pulling.
They told me "go and get it," run until your lungs are breathless,
Stack it 'til you're senseless, but the method left me defenseless.
Chasing paper phantoms, throwing tantrums at the firmament,
Tryna write the final verse before I even learned the script.
It's a reverse algorithm, a cosmic kind of schism,
The more you try to grab the light, the more you're in a prism.
Trapped by your own vision, locked by your own decision,
The only key is in submission, a quiet intermission.
Keep them guessing is the mission.

Always pushing. Yeah.

"It's always push and pull."
"At the end you just find out that not pulling, is actually pulling."
"So stop.... being.... a try hard."

Pull...
Push....

I keep cool, I keep my cool,
And the fruit lets go politely, yeah.
When I reach, it fades from view;
when I breathe, it finds my shoe.
Call it cosmic micromove, push // pull.
Not when I press, only stillness pulls.

I don’t know why, but it’s always push and pull.
Oh, always push and pull..

It wasn’t fate. It was force.

It wasn’t fate. It was force.

Push and pull

Hi, I’m SugarSynth; an ongoing audio/visual art project by Ashley Koopstra.

Crafting sound gives voice to the parts of my mind that are otherwise left on mute. 💜 I create electronic tracks that blur the line between melody, malfunction, retro vibes and heavy bass; ruthlessly using whatever tools I need to bring my vision to life. My workflow is unique: I write lyrics, record sounds, mix them, and produce melodies, I then use the most modern software and tools to sculpt, optimize, polish and create unique sounds in great quality. My vocals are heavily modified. Every sound I shape is a way to connect, to make the invisible feel a little more real.

🎹 Gear: Akai MPK Mini MK3, Akai APC Mini MK2
🎤 Behringer XM8500 (Heavily modified/synthesized)
🎛  DAW: Bitwig Studio
🎨 Most of my artwork/photos/images are generative AI (diffusion) elements sometimes even combined with real life photos. Always using GIMP for composition/finalizing.

I’m not chasing perfection. I’m chasing resonance and connection. If something in my sounds or visuals evokes emotion; that’s everything.

If you wish to learn more about me give me a follow on my socials or checkout SugarSynthMusic.com for the 'about me' and 'FAQ' section.

If you follow me on SoundCloud, thanks so much ❤️❤️!! Please know I will check out your music and follow back if it's my taste, and I like a lot of music!
