So...why have I been quiet for so long? Well, to be honest...a lot of reasons. Mental health, adulting, turning 20 recently, and planning for future events. On top of that, I've got some pretty big things in the works with my music stuff, but it's really s̴l̶o̶w̷ ̷p̵r̴o̷g̸r̷e̸s̸s̶ ̴c̴a̵n̷n̶o̸t̸ ̸b̴e̷̮͒ ̷̜͋t̵̲̚ǫ̸͝l̵̜̑é̴͔r̸̪̕ã̸̼t̵̬̕ẻ̷̱d̷̩͌ ̶̤͊i̷̞̊ṇ̷͌ ̴̘̾s̶̫͗ṳ̷̓c̷͔͘h̵̭͝ ̶̩̏ḯ̸̫m̴͓͛ṕ̸͍ô̶̜r̴̝̈t̴͓͒a̴̩͐ǹ̴̤t̵̨͝ ̷̢̚m̸̗͗a̸̰͗ť̶̮ṫ̵̗é̶͓r̵̮̄š̵͇.̵͉͌ ̷̘̋A̵̤͐c̶t̶i̵o̶n̷ ̶i̷s̶ ̶n̸e̴e̸d̸e̸d̸ ̴r̴i̸g̶ht now, so until I have those ready, I'll probably just post updates on stuff I'm working on like IDs, maybe a few DJ setmixes and other random stuff. Nonetheless, I'm excited to show you guys what I have to share in the future!

This ambient track was made and recorded one day in a music production (no voice) voice channel on Discord with tears streaming down my eyes, and the green lights of my Roland System-1 hardware synth. I opened up Logic Pro, hit record…and just played the preset I had just created. The song is meant to sound a little off, harsh, and drawn out. That's been my life recently. Feel free to let me know what you guys think in the comments section. Constructive criticism is just fine, but if you do so, please provide things I did well, and things you think I could improve on (and maybe how to improve them). I had a longer track description talking about the origin of what caused me to write this track, but something happened when writing it, and I lost the description. Maybe I'll add it again later, but I doubt it.
(I'm doing the thing, yes really lol) For best results, please use headphones, dim the lights, and immerse yourself in a memorable, comfortable environment. Environments include a thin layer of infinite, mirror-like water reflecting distant mountains and a glittering sky, rainy roads with colored lights washing over your face, laying horizontally on your bed with the air conditioning on, and blurry glimpses of nostalgic memories never to be forgotten.

Welcome to my Soul Portal. Please, feel free to explore, and find what resonates with your soul portal.

We Followed Old Paths

You can enjoy it on Youtube, me performing this dawless Live Set, expect deep ambients and never ending groove with a strong presence.
My new setup with the mc707 as mixer, sampler, and midi controller; is followed by the TR-8s as drum machine and layering; getting the TB-3 and the SYSTEM-1 in mono sidechain inside it as acid and evolving basslines.
The SYSTEM-1m as a semi modular sinthetizer is directly controlled by the MC-707 where I get a double midi output to play and sequence the modular device, it takes the gate control from the TR-8s getting a groovy side instead of the ambient soundscape I'm usual to produce with that.

Music, Music Production, Sound Design, Live performances, Music & Clips,

NOMAAD is the project of Erik Perrone, a full-time road dweller for over a decade.
Born in the free rave underground, his techno mirrors the way he lives: pressure, sweat, confrontation, and a relentless search for meaning. A self-built subculture in motion.
He sculpts sound in real time. His sets are unstable architectures — driven by instinct, tension and vast open space.
Years of dawless performance carved a signature: hypnotic, ritual, distorted, acid-soaked and atmospheric, pushing the floor into deep trance states. His expanding sound inventory has become its own language.
He now operates his hardware with surgical control:
a modded TR-8S driving the pulse, an APC40 commanding his sound bank, a Torso T-1 sequencing his synths, the System-1m and ASM Hydrasynth Explorer shaping the spectrum.
 
NOMAAD performs with total commitment: no playback, no safety net, no repetitions.
Every set is built from scratch, and every set is a question.
Just pure presence.
Techno as a lived experience.

What is a Shadow Portal?

A place of wonder. Crying and dancing at the same time. Intimacy, connection, raw emotion, and visualization. A means of bringing people together to heal the darkest corners of themselves.

Breathe in, breathe out. This is my shadow portal. A gateway to my entire being.
What does yours look like? Euphoria? Sadness? Fear, worry, concern? Solicitude, laughter? This is your shadow portal, and it shifts with time and experience.

Shadow Portal teaches about the importance of shadow work with a unique, electronic twist.
The shadow self, first identified by the psychologist Carl Jung, is the part of our psyche that we push aside; the part that holds all our regrets, griefs, secrets, and deepest fears. By viewing your shadow self without judgement, you open the portal to consciousness and self recovery. This helps us find a unique purpose, fulfillment, and connection to a higher power.
Sometimes, we forget this. That's where the young artist found his purpose. Shadow Portal takes this concept and applies it to music, creating worlds and opening portals through sound. This gives a gentle reminder that everyone is going through something, and that we're all doing the best we can.

This is my Shadow Portal. What is yours like?

About The Producer:
Inspired by artists (both big and small) such as Au5, CloudNone, i_o, Akosmo, Loosid, Virtual Riot, Midnight Kitsune, Asteroid Afterparty, STRNGER,  deadmau5, & others, the young producer’s signature style incorporates emotional chord progressions, futuristic sounds, vowel-like basses, punchy/resonant snares, and experimental, ethereal sound design.

Born from the soul in a transformation phase of life, Shadow Portal sets his eyes towards labels such as “Lost In Dreams”, "Monstercat", "Mau5trap", and "Rushdown". He has been making music since he was 4 years old with his family's piano.

Shadow Portal first discovered electronic music at a young age through Pandora radio. After discovering the iconic "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" by Skrillex, he fell in love with the futuristic sound. A few years later, he heard “Flight” by Tristam & Braken, released on the Monstercat label, for the first time while coming home from a mountain biking ride. He later found that many young producers were doing the same thing the professionals were. This was the spark waiting to ignite his passion for electronic music, and challenged the question, "If they can do it, why can't I?"

Ever since then, Shadow Portal experiments with countless genres, embracing chances to try new sound design techniques and shape his signature sound. In the past years, he's participated in an official Monstercat remix competition, performed a live instrument show at his high school prom, assisted at a small 4th of July event, and bought a Roland System-500 modular synthesizer. About 4 years ago, he started learning to DJ on the Roland DJ-202. He is now adept at the skill, and aims to bring the Shadow Portal sound to venues where he can paint emotion with sound waves.

Shadow Portal's tracks sound identical to artists such as Porter Robinson (whom friends have said he looks strikingly similar to) the experimental Loosid, the legendary producer i_o who's influence has reached the far corners of the universe, the sound wizard Au5, and more familiar names such as Owl City, & Coldplay.

If you're looking for something to touch the heart, step into the universe of Shadow Portal. But be warned: this journey, will transform you.
The young artist uses Logic Pro as his choice DAW.
