When @aminabanks shared that she was seeking remixers for an upcoming single, I immediately hopped on the chance to try creating something special. We enlisted the help of our friend @ienne-yixst, who provided new verses and vocal content for the remix version, and together I think we all accomplished what I'd set out for! <3

What can I say. @sebastian1-music's original 'Embody' track is burned into the brains of many in my generation. Given that I've been on a UKG kick as of late, it was only a matter of time, but I gotta say, this track was begging for the treatment. I hope you all dig it! This was FUN!

Love you SebastiAn! <3 ~

I was asked to put together a set representing @HyperPopRecords for this collaborative 'Net Label Night' URL Fest that @anison-hijack & 'Series Ai' hosted and helped put together. It was a rad night and everyone's DJ sets went off! My set was very UKG influenced this time around because I've been bitten by that bug, so I included some of my favorite tracks to play out live lately, and I threw in a few edits, unreleased jams, and recent drops from myself and friends!

lyrics:

don't lie to me (x4)

I lost my composure
when you called me over
maybe we can make this real tonight

I lost my composure
when you called me over
maybe we can make this real tonight
real tonight (x16)

i want you to tell me why
(don't lie to me)
this can't become our real life
i'll hit rewind
(don't lie to me)
i'll stay in the memory of our first night
our first kiss
now our first dance
our first trip
and our first glance
our first goodbye
our first goodbye
our first goodbye
our first goodbye

(don't lie to me)

[vocal chops]

was it just a holographic kiss
just a wish
another life we didn't live
please forgive
was it just a holographic kiss
just a wish
another life we didn't live
please forgive
me

(don't lie to me)

Weekly Beats 2025 - #1 - The Opening of the Mouth

I knew it wouldn't take too long after our full length collab album 'FUSION DANCE', follow up remix album 'FUSION REBORN', and post album single 'SHEEEESH!!' before @that-andy-guy and myself set out to make some more material together. This track more or less started as a solo endeavor, that I then approached Andy about adding some solos to towards the middle/back half of the track. We both went silly though, so take your bets on who did what! 

This may or may not be leading up to another album, idk I have too many in the works!
