Part 1 of "Polaris" https://soundcloud.com/velvetsomethingsuperdark/sets/polaris

"Into the north window of my chamber glows the Pole Star with uncanny light. All through the long hellish hours of blackness it shines there. And in the autumn of the year, when the winds from the north curse and whine, and the red-leaved trees of the swamp mutter things to one another in the small hours of the morning under the horned waning moon, I sit by the casement and watch that star..."
Beginning of the short-story POLARIS by H. P. Lovecraft, 1920

Tom (@tom-2020) and I are glad to present track 7 (last but one) in our almost finished collaborative album "La belle et le loup, ou Les loups du Gévaudan" (2023), or in English translation "Beauty and the Beast, or The Wolves of Gevaudan").

The track was created in collaboration on 25 November 2023 (initial composition, recording, arrangement and mix in MAGIX by Tom) and 10-11 December 2023 (subsequent composition, recording, arrangement and final mix in GarageBand iOS and Logic Pro by Alex M), and posted here on SoundCloud on 11 December 2023 (by Alex M). We acknowledge use of vocal samples from MAGIX Dance-Main Stage, selected and incorporated into the track by Tom. 

The artwork cover for the track is based on a photo by Tom of 11 September 2013 (exactly 10 years and 3 months ago!) that was cropped and annotated in Mac OS Preview by Alex M and Tom in coordination on 8 October 2023.

Duration: 6:59 minutes

This Moment's You and Me

Insert Coin is a 5-track EP built like a retro-futuristic video game soundtrack for the dancefloor — a concept record where each track becomes a new level, a new challenge, a new emotional state.

Inspired by late-night arcades, glitching CRT screens, and the high-stakes drama of boss fights, Insert Coin blends the nostalgia of 90s club culture with the energy of modern italo-trance and indie dance. The sonic palette merges punchy trance arps, analog basslines, and cinematic pads — all sculpted exclusively with the native instruments of Ableton Live 12 Suite, giving the EP a cohesive, raw yet polished identity.

Each track is structured like a level in a game:

You start with the flashing lights and the shy energy of the title track Insert Coin, an opening screen full of anticipation.

You ride into the night with Night Driver, where dreamy arpeggios and strobe-lit percussion echo the sensation of speeding through digital rain.

Level Up delivers euphoric peaks and analog bass, a moment of triumph and forward motion.
Things take a darker turn with You're Big Boss, a high-tension EBM-infused duel with twisted synth leads and breaky drums.

Finally, Game Over closes the journey with a melancholic yet driving rhythm — a reminder that endings can be just as powerful as beginnings.

More than a collection of tracks, Insert Coin is a tribute to a certain vision of dance music: one where club sounds tell stories, where retro aesthetics meet physical grooves, and where emotion is coded into every MIDI message.

The project is a love letter to Italo, trance, and video games — and to every dancer who ever dreamed with their eyes closed on a dark floor.

🎸 Welcome to my musical journey! 🎶

Hey there, music enthusiasts! I'm Oz a hobbyist musician who's been strumming the strings of my guitar since my teenage years. Music has always been my passion, weaving its melodies through every chapter of my life. From the intricate rhythms of Oriental music to the rebellious energy of pop-punk, the timeless allure of blues, the groove of funk, and the nostalgia of electronic sounds from the '80s and '90s, I find inspiration in a diverse array of genres.

For me, music is more than just sound – it's a language of emotions, a canvas where I paint my feelings and experiences. The power of music to evoke and express emotions never ceases to amaze me. Being part of this vibrant community here on SoundCloud fuels my creative drive and pushes me to explore new sonic landscapes.

As the legendary Bob Marley once said, "One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain." So join me on this musical voyage, where we'll dive deep into the ocean of melodies and rhythms, sharing moments of joy, introspection, and everything in between.

Let's make some noise together! 🤘
