So here we are once again with another installment of the Abstract Series_ Volume 3 but the 4th mix in the sequence just to keep you ten toes down. B. Helix and myself, Sw3rv3 decided to team up for this one and we've got something special and unique for you guys this week. It's a new year and we're approaching from a different angle just to keep things fresh. To start things off, We composed an original Electronica tune for the session titled 'Simulation Theory' which sets the stage for an abstract and multifaceted journey. Sw3rv3 starts us off with some techy vibes, working from back to front on this first section, leading with some of the heavier tracks of the 2 hour set, dropping a couple bangers and drum heavy tunes from Benny L and Soul Intent. Afterwards we fall into some aesthetics with airy electronica sounds by Inhmost. Following the break we roll into the 170 realm with various accents and energy. After the transition to Disc 2, B.Helix brings the listeners a different sound with the same abstract approach and similar style in sequencing. Utilizing various vibes, genres, and subgenres, He takes us on a ride thru laidback electronica sounds, driving tribal rhythms, spoken word, and smooth, artistic transitions between various spectrums of sound, closing the session with the airy and calm self produced track 'Velvet' (Available for free download here: https://on.soundcloud.com/kxaePkxPfNdEfqJL7 ). A truly talented artist of the craft and member of the culture. 

This two hour session came together well I think, Discs 1 and 2 compliment each other nicely, We hope you enjoy the story. As always we appreciate you taking the time to listen and sharing your feedback. Let us know what you think in the comments and give a like and a share if you're feelin' the vibe. Keep it Locked!

Abstract Series_03 (B.Helix & Sw3rv3) 'Simulation Theory'

When I put together Volume 1 (Synthetic Rebellion) I'd given up on a mix i'd been working on, dealing with a bout of writers block, threw all my different tunes into a single palette and just mixed whatever came to mind. It was a different mix than anything I'd ever played before but it was cool, not focusing so much on linear mixing but just a flow of sounds, tracks, and samples that blended together. Anyways, that's what bore the Abstract Series. Oftentimes real creativity comes on the heels of frustration. 

That mix caught the attention of B.Helix as he shared a similar mixing style and he showed interest in collaborating with me on the concept. He's an artist and producer with a long history in music, not just electronic music but playing instruments, promoting, and just generally being involved in the music scene for a long time. Ben is a talented and humble musician and I'm honored to have him and his loyal listeners here to contribute to this thing we call Sound Stream Sessions, which started as a simple way to share and post mixes amongst my friends here locally, and over the years has taken on a life of it's own.

Volume 4.

B.Helix is ridin' solo for this fifth installment of the series using his signature style of blending different vibes and bpms, all while painting a coherent piece of art for the listeners to lose themselves in. 

He starts us off with an erie, suspenseful intro, fitting the artwork crisply, flowing into a steady and smooth vibe with jazzy and atmospheric undertones. From there, we're off as he melds a wide range of sounds, utilizing tribal vibes, house, and experimental electronica, weaved together tightly at the seams. Never a dull moment, keeping the listener engaged, flowing efficiently thru various genres and tempos.

Definitely one of my top picks from the Abstract Series as the session represents the concept behind it so well. Buckle up folks. Enjoy the ride! 

Thanks for listening and keep it locked!
