Separation Stage 1 makes use of contrasting elements - softer musical sounds vs dirtier more aggressive sounds. I was also experimenting with call & response drum patterns, adding/taking away layers of sounds.

Subliminal was a musical idea that sprang up whilst experimenting with, well, musical ideas! It has a Reese-style bass that changes key underneath the other elements to switch things up a little. There’s a mysterious sounding arp pattern that pushes things along and some ethereal pads that combine to give the track its floaty atmosphere. Dancing over the top of all this is a plucky synth riff and some chord stabs.

Subliminal

Separation Stage 1

These tracks were the results of trying out different musical ideas…. just leaning more on musical changes to keep the ears interested and jamming with the sounds to see what came out. Keeping things roughly around 160 bpm tempo just leaves more room to really appreciate the breaks for their character and feel, and I hope this comes across.

Shouts to the Invisible Man for the guidance & critical ear, Ed Steele & the festival crew for helping me remember what it’s all about, my wife for the support and Fanu for the excellent suggestions during the mastering process.
