The Journey Project Playlist 2013 - 2023

A dance track experiment for The Journey Project. It doesn't quite hold together as I'd like, but there's parts of the track that I'm pleased with.

Running Straight - The Journey Part 6

This is quite different to some of the others - less experimental, very melodic and dreamy. Its a bit messy in places - unfortunately I ran out of time to edit! Anyway, hope you enjoy it as it is!

Forever Walking (Original Mix) - The Journey Part 7

Well, I think it's quite funky and retro 70s in style! Made from loops, this track is another experiment. Its quite short and also its part of the Journey Project.

Funky Journey (Everybody get a little crazy baby!) - The Journey Part 8

This is an attempt at an ambient dance melodic track. I am quite pleased with the result! It could be tidied up and a bit better, but I'm happy with the core of the tune. Let me know if you like any parts (or all) of the track, and what works well!

Finding a Way - The Journey Part 10

I'm quite pleased with this one! Good beat, repetitive but with a melodic overtone - give the impression of a train or something travelling forward. Let me know if there are any parts of this track you like!

Locomotion - The Journey Part 11

This track is an experiment made entirely in Garageband using loops and software instruments as well as filters and sounds. It's a fusion of different sounds with a grooving and driving rock undercurrent all the way through - I hope you enjoy this track.

Where Am I? - The Journey Part 9

A first attempt at an ambient dance/trance/fusion track using only the loops I had available to me within the software. Quite pleased with the result - but need to look at more variety in chords/music for next attempt.

Starting Out - The Journey Part 1

Taking to the Air - The Journey Part 2

Don't Know If I'll Make It Back Home - The Journey Part 3

Here is The Journey Part 4 - its a work in process, but might never get any further! I hope you like it as far as I've got with this track. It kind of works on several levels I think. Sort of Fusion / Funk / Electric / Retro / Ambient / 70s Electronic feel! Nothing like an experiment!

Don't You Know it's True? - The Journey Part 4

The Journey Part 5 - Riding The Wind ft. Will. Wanted to try a track that mixed live guitar playing with sequenced electronic dance / ambient / progressive sounds. There's a couple of places where I'm not totally happy with the timing and overall sound in places  (ran out of time), but generally very pleased with the way it came out. I like the different transitions and ebb and flow of the music which reflects the title of the track. The classical guitar is a real track played live and tweaked (used with permission), and the rest is composed of loops afterwards to compliment it the original spontaneous track. The end of the track marks a change which I could continue to extend into a long play or new track which I might visit again in the future.

Riding The Wind (ft. Will live on guitar) - The Journey Part 5

If any of my tracks speaks to you, then it was made for you! Let me know. I create using Garageband with loops, MIDI files and samples and also experiment with AI tracks. If I use AI for a track, I will make that very clear in the track description.

Some tracks work well, and some don't, but I post my efforts here regardless! If you like any of it, do let me know...I'm learning as I go. Music is another language which constantly evolves and there's always something new to learn or create. That's part of the fun! I hope to improve rather than stay static.

Varied in my musical taste, but really enjoy Vocal Trance, ambient, chillout, dance, funk, rock, jazz, eclectic stuff through to a bit of classical too for fun and creativity.

Would like to spend a lot more time on most of my own tracks, which makes most of them 'works in progress'. I often run out of time to fully complete a track - so there might be out-of-place notes in there - sorry in advance!

Hope you enjoy my Soundcloud space! :)
