Hey there, Riden here. I participated in the Arcaea song contest again. AND I DIDN'T PROCRASTINATE ON THE JACKET ART THIS TIME! So, this song came to me from the theme of the contest, "A world being shifted under the influence of another", as well as the story of arcaea and how it's going with "Insight". I wanted to take the artcore styling of base arcaea and morph it into a dubstep/edm styling that would parallel the effects "Insight" is having within the world of Arcaea. I wanted to try and experiment with how I could mashup genres together to make a full song, I like to think I succeeded. To be frank, this was one of my first real crack at something truely "Dubstep" so please let me know if I did good. 

Yall can custom chart this if you want, just credit and link back. Thank you all for reading and listening.

Expansion is a bold and captivating instrumental crafted for the Cymatics x ProducerGrind Analog Evolution Song Contest. This midtempo hip-hop beat balances raw analog warmth with futuristic production. Clocking in at 108 BPM in B minor, the track embodies the theme of "Expansion," symbolizing the progression from traditional analog elements to a modern, forward-thinking soundscape.

From the first note, the beat draws listeners into its hypnotic world with a repetitive yet dynamic synth lead that acts as the anchor for the entire composition. Intricately layered around this central motif are various synth and key counters, creating a tapestry of evolving melodies that pulse with energy and emotion. A mesmerizing vocal loop weaves through the track, adding a hauntingly human element to the otherwise mechanical precision of the instrumental. Spacey ambiences and vocal phrases float in and out, while a subtle ocean noise texture lingers in the background, giving the track a sense of depth and fluidity.

At its core, Expansion is driven by its percussive power. The kicks are thunderous, cutting through the mix with an uncompromising impact, while the snares hit sharp and hard, accented by glitchy textures and rimshots that enhance the beat's rhythmic complexity. The low end is driven by deep synth bass-lines, along with a dynamic reese and bouncy bass shots. The tonal beeps and tribal percussion add a unique character, infusing the track with an almost primal energy that complements its futuristic vibe. The hi-hats and open hats maintain a relentless pace, creating a steady, driving force that keeps the listener locked in from start to finish.

One of the track's standout features is its ability to create a seamless blend of analog warmth and digital precision. The analog-inspired elements, such as the textured synths and vocal samples, are processed to retain their organic essence while evolving into something entirely new. The ocean noise, for instance, is not just a background texture but a nod to the natural world, grounding the track's otherwise space-age atmosphere.

The concept of Expansion represents growth, transformation, and the fusion of past and future. By taking analog samples and reimagining them within a futuristic framework, the beat embodies the spirit of innovation. Every element, from the glitchy details to the hypnotic loops, has been carefully crafted to push the boundaries of what hip-hop instrumentals can achieve. The result is a beat that feels alive, constantly evolving and expanding, much like the creative process itself.

With its addictive, vibey energy and confident, upbeat rhythm, Expansion is a piece of progression. Whether it's the intricate layering of melodies, the hard-hitting percussion, or the seamless integration of analog textures and futuristic elements, this track is a testament to the endless possibilities of music production. It invites listeners to embrace change, to explore new horizons, and to expand their own creative boundaries.

Ev'ry time you take me in your arms I'm helpless
Then you spoil it all by saying "l love you".
Don't you know that I like loving just for fun.

Hey there. I am "Riprider" (or “Riden” for short). I am also a freelance musician who loves making video game inspired songs and remixes of video game songs. I am aspiring rhythm game composer who wants to be a part of official games. Feel free to share and make mashups and rhythm game charts with my tracks as long as you ask me first, give CREDIT and link back to my page.  That's for reading, happy listening.

"Welcome to my world of music where each song is a mirror of my inner self.

As a treated Borderliner, living with hypersensitivity, my emotions run deep and so do my lyrics. 

Writing music is not just a passion, it's a lifeline. 
It helps me process the chaos, the beauty, the pain and the moments of light.

Each song I create carries the weight of real experiences drawn from struggles, intensity and vulnerability. 

I write to understand myself and hopefully to help others feel understood too.

While studying Songwriting and Sound Engineering I also explore the use of AI music production tools to expand my emotional storytelling with modern and expressive soundscapes.

All lyrics in my original songs are written by me, born from my inner voice and truth.
(With the exception of reworks or covers.)

Thank you very much for listening to my tunes and stories.
If my songs resonate with you, know that you're not alone."

Let´s keep posted ...
