Fall into the story of my dive into an ego death!

Dissolved Ego

The Sounds Of James is a producer/beatmaker from New York City, known for crafting music across a wide spectrum of genres, including Hip-Hop, House, Techno, Drum & Bass, and more. Rather than settling into one sound, he reinvents himself with each project, exploring the unique textures, rhythms, and structures that define these styles while blending them with an unconventional, experimental edge.  

His approach is deeply rooted in pushing sonic boundaries - layering intricate drum patterns, manipulating sound design, and incorporating unexpected elements that challenge traditional genre norms. Whether it’s the raw energy of Drum & Bass, or the hypnotic groove of House, the old Boom-Bap style with a Glitchy twist, every release is a testament to his commitment to artistic evolution.  

By constantly reshaping his creative direction, The Sounds Of James ensures that no two projects sound alike, offering listeners a fresh and immersive experience with each release. His mission is not just to produce music but to expand musical horizons, engaging a diverse audience that appreciates innovation and unpredictability in sound.

Music is cool

Antifa is my cousin.  I heard some people were looking for her.  Since I like to be helpful when I can, she was in Alexandria last time I talked to her, three weeks ago.  I think she mentioned going to Zurich in the near future.

As I understand it a conspiracy is supposed to be secret so please don't tell anyone.

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.

Surreal8zero is a UK-born, genre-fluid DnB producer and writer, weaving raw emotion through jungle, liquid, and hard-hitting rollers. Raised on the heavy sounds of Pantera, the psychedelia of Pink Floyd, and the chaos of The Prodigy—Surreal8zero’s music is a fusion of intensity and atmosphere, sculpted from the three masterful P’s and filtered through breakbeats.

Formed between the chaos of his teenage years living in Nashville,TN and a return to England in ’99, the sound of Surreal8zero emerged and matured into a deep exploration of drum and bass—one that resurfaced in 2018 with renewed force.

His last release, Smiler, was a hard liquid roller built for “head down and gurn” sessions. But it's Dissolved Edo that fans still call his sharpest and most immersive work. Whether liquid, jungle, or stripped-back rollers, Surreal8zero pushes boundaries while paying homage to the roots.
