My music seems to be getting darker... I'm not sure why.
However, it might be something to do with the news. It seems that decency, kindness and tolerance are too often being sacrificed at the alter of political expediency. Sorry for the rant.

Lead guitar and riffs were played on a Gibson Memphis 335
Bass lines were played on a Fender Jazz Bass
All other instruments were played on a Native Instruments Kontact keyboard, 

Requiem for Decency and Tolerance

Probably the worst one man industrial band from Escondido.

Happy 2025

I love listening to & creating ambient, dark ambient, avant-garde & experimental electronica (and the occasional beatscape). I have no professional aspirations  - I just really like creating music / manipulating sounds. It's my way of relaxing after a hard day at the office. All my tracks are produced using monitoring headphones (Audix A140) so I recommend that you listen to my music through headphones. My DAW of choice is FL Studio. I also use Reason every now & then. 


To the artists I follow; I do my best to try to listen to as many of your tracks as possible each night (I listen to each track all the way through - you went through the effort to create a track so you deserve to have it heard in full). If I miss a recent upload of yours, please forgive me...

Thank you for taking the time to visit my little corner of the soundcloud.

An old fart making old music.

Everything is made in Reason, https://www.reasonstudios.com
I love it since it let me use patch cables the way I'm used to.

Arturia V-collection, https://www.arturia.com, let me play with synths I couldn't afford back in the days.

Full Bucket, https://www.fullbucket.de, make some fantastic VST soft-synths that I love. He has an impressive setup of Korg clones that I recommend. Try FB-3300, the best synth Korg has ever made.

Cherry Audio, https://cherryaudio.com, is another source of old synth clones that sound fantastic. Good price and wonderful sound.

I've been on Soundcloud for six years now and it's been great exploring the work of other artists.  There is so much generosity of spirit on this platform, it's just what you need when most of your music is made solo. 

I started out playing classical and Spanish guitar, then took up flamenco to ease myself away from the confines of musical notation. As a result, Latin rhythms often creep into my music. 

A friend introduced me to steel string and electric guitars just a few years ago and I still find the scope they bring dizzying... but what fun!

Woodwind-powered experimental music (jazz/blues/ambient/funk/fusion/free improv....)[MOST TRACKS ARE DOWNLOADABLE] Wind instruments: tenor/alto/soprano saxes; Eb/Bb clarinets; flute/bamboo flutes; recorders; oboe; melodica (+ guitar+other various noisemakers) recorded on a Zoom MRS 1266 / R24.
Beats and other sounds: GarageBand.

Even though I scream inside because of America's shit show, I'm still Rebecca, an old hippie rocker. When you read my comments, hear them in a southern drawl. I’m a liberal from Georgia … yes, we do exist. I moved to Hawaii about 20 years ago. 

I’ve been around the block a few times. Played a lot of guitar and a bit of other instruments. Mostly I've worked as a visual artist. I've spent some years in the music biz with a major label and my own indie label. I’ve done some other interesting things, too, including: horse training, long motorcycle trips, movie set design, accompanying my wife on her pro bowling tours, and I've seen a good bit of the world. Now I’m retired and still keep busy doing all the things I want to do.

Life is what you make it. Follow your passions.

Speaking of passions … because I love designing, in February '24, I opened an Etsy store as an outlet for prints on clothing and other items: https://dragonhousestudios.etsy.com

I'm also half of 8000 MILES, a prog rock duo.

Join me on Bluesky.

Thx for visiting and listening, I am an amateur guitarist, play a little keybord, bass and drums too. I love music.
