A humid little track that's a mix of several elements. 

Twas Brillig

Description : This is the third and final installation of the Overmyth trilogy. Each of the three parts represents a period of my life, and the events that have taken place over the last 3 years. The first, "Overmyth I - Inception Of The Truth" is about the facing the journey ahead, and setting out to deal with it. You can hear it here, https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/184039. The second part, "Overmyth II - Cathedral Of The Witch" is about the outer obstacles that were standing in my way that I needed to overcome. It can be heard here, https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/184868. This track. "Overmyth III - Conquering The Bathelyst" is about my inner obstacles. My own insecurities and fears that I needed to conquer in order to finish the 3 year journey, before I could be at peace with myself and the decisions I've had to make along the way. As far as the creation of the song, on a technical standpoint, it was made with EZ Drummer, Shreddage II guitar VST, Scarbee Rickenbocker bass VST, and a little bit of Sylenth1. It's in the Heavy Metal genre, but more specifically, Doom Metal. Inspired by bands like Monolord, Yob, Cough, etc. So, it's a slow, low and heavy aural assult. I started this track in October of 2016, and put in a total working time of 389 hours. That's a total of 16 days if I were to have worked straight through. So, hopefully you like it. I put a lot into it. There are a few things I'm not totally satisfied with, but without using any live instruments, it's going to be impossible to get exactly what I wanted. Thanks for listening. Enjoy. V.

Overmyth III: Conquering The Bathelyst

Living in the Pacific Northwest, USA, I am surrounded by countless acres of forests and mountains. Having experienced them, I know that with as beautiful and serene as they can be, so too, they can be cold, deadly and unforgiving. That's what this song is about. The wide spectrum of emotions one can feel when alone in the forest. Whether you want to be or not. Let me know what you think. --- Take care. V.

Moss Mother pt. I: Sun

A song about "waking up" and seeing there's more than what we see.

Velvet Highway

I had some fun with a wah-pedal effect in this one. It's nothing too remarkable, but a fun little metal piece none the less. Enjoy. V.

Mud River Swamp King (with Bicky Stalls and The Snushbakes)

This is my city. The city of Portland, Or. Right now. The audio clips were taken from today's (July 23) news coverage of the last 56 days of protests, and the unmarked federal officers "detaining" people and disappearing with them. Some of which, still to be heard from. This is my city. Right now.

This is a true-to-form Valvedriver track. Heavy, Raw, and driving. All synths were made with Serum. By me. Just for this track.
Take care.

Right now

An electro song about a sociopath mother who's raising her son into a sociopath as well.

MotherSociopath

A followup to my "Labryth Of The Absurd".  Because I like the idea of sequels and trilogies in music.

Labrynth Of The Absurd Pt 2 (Pain Has A Face)

An interesting track. Not as dark as my usual work, but still a hidden sinister vibe to it.

I'm There Right Now

Hurry, hurry, hurraayyyy! Step right up and hear this dark D-n-B tune that's FILLED with circus side show samples and ample audio aggression! Hear the bass wobble, Hear the kick drum hit, Hear the funky-ass breakdown in the middle! This is a tune you won't want to miss! If you've got the dime, you can catch the whole show, but only if you HURRY, HURRY, HURRAYYYYY!

Freaks (Cirque Du Valve mix)

I revisited an old track. Deconstructed it, and rebuilt it for an all new overhauled piece. It wasn't meant to be a reboot, or a remix. Just a new piece using old parts.

I Hope Youre Alright
