PROGRAM NOTE
As a child, my parents vacationed at a summer cottage in Maine by a small lake. Often by myself, I would sit on a giant boulder and watch the lake and the wildlife for hours.

One day, a beautiful bright-winged dragonfly flew across the lake and hovered before me. I was startled and intrigued: its long, slender blue body glistened in the sunlight. Finally, it began to fly around the perimeter of the lake. It stopped every few minutes and hovered in place, almost as if waiting for me to follow it. I followed the dragonfly until sunset, imagining a world in which only the dragonfly existed, on its own terms, within its own world.

Years later, I hiked around the Niagara Gorge near Niagara Falls and explored Devil’s Hole Park. There is an opening on the side of a cliff called Devil’s Hole Cave. Interestingly, early Native Americans called it the Cave of the Evil Spirit and foretold subsequent disaster to anyone who dared enter the cave. The combination of the lake, the dragonfly, and Devil’s Hole Cave all came together and helped crystalize the idea for this work.

Journey of a Dragonfly begins as the sun rises; a foreboding darkness looms in the background, contrasting the Dragonfly’s graceful entrance into a world filled with the excitement of being alive. A gust of wind carries dandelion seeds skyward alongside butterflies and rainbow-colored wildflowers. Butterflies land on flowers before the Dragonfly ventures through a dark forest and emerges, only to be chased by five blackbirds. Weaving back and forth to try and escape, the Dragonfly flies into a narrow crevice as two of the blackbirds collide with trees. While still being chased, the three remaining birds retreat as the Dragonfly discovers a dark hole leading to a tunnel. The dragonfly speeds down the ghoulish tunnel and emerges at the end of the tunnel at the side of a cliff, hovering in place. It looks around in horror and sees a gigantic cavern and then Devil Town. After flying through Devil Town and witnessing tortured souls, a bomb factory, Attorney Alley, and the Devil’s Saloon, off in the distance, the Dragonfly sees Satan’s House on a hill and decides to explore. The Dragonfly enters the house and sees the Devil Child, the Devil Mother, and the Devil himself. Suddenly, the Devil Child catches the Dragonfly in a glass jar as the parents prepare dinner in the kitchen. The Dragonfly eventually manages to escape, only to be chased by the Devil Child and then by a group of hellish bats. After a chaotic chase, the Dragonfly finds the tunnel and speeds back toward the world above. Finally free, the Dragonfly finds a flat rock to rest. The tale concludes as the Dragonfly falls asleep, the sun sets by the lake, and the evening fades to black.

Journey of a Dragonfly was written for JoAnn Falletta and Mostly Modern Orchestra in honor of Mostly Modern Festival’s fifth season.

🔥 Oblique Pressure isn’t a ballad — it’s a charge.
At 160 BPM, driven by raw stereo guitar riffs, heavy synth bass, and a tense rhythm, this track dives into pure energy — a collision of sharp rock and electrified pulse.

The lyrics echo a fractured world where memory fades, voices distort, and the line between human and machine starts to blur. It’s a spiral of noise, broken circuits, and relentless oblique pressure.

🎧 A track for those who crave intensity, chaos, and release.

Dutty Whammel - Rum 'n' Coke 

Party-starting vibes with a heavy system edge — Rum n Coke is the carnival-flavoured closer to the EP. Jungle percussion and a bubbling bass groove drive it forward, built for both festivals and backrooms. A track that captures the spirit of old skool dance culture with a new skool polish.

Walking through the forest,
I see your face everywhere.
It’s like you’re chasing me.
I hear your footsteps everywhere.
It’s not fair.
Thought I gave you everything,
but you’re still chasing me.
You must want something.
Cuts on me
I feel like a disease while you run around me.
I will always harm me.
I will fucking hurt you.
Endless fucking circles, yeah, I feel so abused.
Life’s so cruel.
I don’t know what to do.
Every time I talk, it’s like I’m talking through you.

I lost a piece of me.
I’m losing everything.
I found my pieces,
but they don’t really resemble me.

It fucking looks like you.
It fucking looks like you.
’Cause every piece of me
is just a piece of you.
And I can’t hate you,
even after everything —
everything you did to me.
I just wish the best for you.
It’s the ghost of you,
it’s in my fucking room.
I ruin everything every time I move.

Walking through the forest,
I see your face everywhere.
It’s like you’re chasing me.
I hear your footsteps everywhere.
It’s not fair.
Thought I gave you everything,
but you’re still chasing me.
You must want something.
Cuts on me —
I feel like a disease while you run around me.
I will always harm me.
I will fucking hurt you.
Endless fucking circles, yeah, I feel so abused.
Life’s so cruel.
I don’t know what to do.
Every time I talk, it’s like I’m talking through you.

I see you (stalkerdotcom)

Stranger Tones  "Audio Bass Trip"

Twistedreload is a unique sound coming straight out of London.
Twistedreload has being making music for a number of years, Starting off on Playstation, Fruity loops, Reason and now on Logic.

Twistedreload has been influenced by a lot of artist in Reggae, Soul, House, Rave, Garage, Trance and Dub over the years. In my early years I was going up and down the M1 with Jah Tubbys (Dub Sound system). I think this is shown in my music by the basslines that I write and the vocal delays all of which I loved and still do.

Twistedreload as an original sound that is like no other and I aways start with the drum patterns which all made by me in NI's battery. The synth's I use are Serum, Spire and The Sylenth and mixture of some old synths from Native instruments. I use a number of plug-ins which are waves.

I hope you enjoy my music on this page many thanks

Our music is a unique blend of electronic music, jazz, and world music. It is characterized by intricate rhythms, lush melodies, and hypnotic sounds, which are skillfully woven together by Leopoldo et Lacerda. The music has a modern, futuristic feel, pure Portuguese urban soul, creating a sound that is both original and captivating.
