In January 2022, highfield released the second of the two “winter” EPs, at that time still under a different pseudonym. Both of these works were produced exclusively on the SP404A sampler from Roland, which is why they were later combined under the name “SP404 projects”.
At the beginning of 2025, around 3 years later, highfield came across the folders of the two works again while searching his hard disk and decided to remaster them and release a rework version.

Stream the SP404 projects on all platforms or support the artist via Bandcamp.

Hardwear Based Production [HWBP] is a research project that focuses exclusively on hardwear-based music production.
In addition to the regular releases, various ideas and works from different subgenres are published under this ongoing project.  
MPCSP01 is the debut release.

This track was produced and arranged exclusively on the Akai MPC2000XL. It was mixed using the Soundcraft Signature 22 MTK and then heavily compressed in the Roland SP404A.  
This results in a characteristic, noisy and dirty lo-fi sound typical for this type of low-resolution music.

Since this is an experimental project, this and all subsequent works will be offered on donation basis on the Bandcamp account of highfield.

Fragment is the result of an electronic music project produced by highfield. The EP contains four tracks, which are united by chirping TB-303 basses, smacking TR-808 drums, and wide, deep pads and synths.
Ranging from 127 to 132 BPM, these breakbeats are influenced by different subgenres, such as parts of house and jungle music. They impress with a sound that is both calm and driving.

This EP is available for purchase on Bandcamp and on all streaming platforms.
