I've got a lot to share with you all, and I’m done waiting for Sven.

Lately, I’ve been making progress in refining my musical skills, though I'm still on this journey of continuous learning.

If you listen to this playlist, you’ll see how far I’ve come. In the beginning, with tracks like “MAYDAY, MAYDAY” and “PTSD,” my melodies were a bit rough around the edges. But as you explore “Stoic Thought Machine,” you’ll notice a significant leap forward.

My wife often says I’ve been on fire creatively lately, and that’s when BrainStorm 2.0 kicked off.

We’ve upgraded our approach to include a broader collaboration beyond just the dynamic Sven and I shared. Moving forward, I’ll have the chance to work with more amazing folks.

Or maybe not. Who knows what new paths I’ll find…

after all, the sky is mine to explore.

BrainStorm Operations 2.0 :

a huge thanks to my amazing friend @chicago_word_brigade for downloading my music over the years and gifting them back to me after my pc crashed a few years ago and i lost a lot of my original music. i really appreciate you, Charlie, and i am very blessed to have a friend and fan like you! X

"far beyond a stolen island
beyond a burning sun
i'm finding my way home

the sky never seems to get lonely
never seems to crave
this silences wrapped in tears

Light burst in the darkness
an echo of black breaking the waves
taking the saved to open their eyes

take me home
home to You"

The rhythmic patterns of the drums are notably influenced by the musical artistry of Sleep Token. (Sleep Token Influenced Drums-STID) As I immersed myself in the intricate compositions of II, I carefully observed his distinct approach to sound.

II's drumming style is characterized by his creative application of rudiments and rhythmic techniques. He masterfully integrates these elements into both fills and grooves, adding depth and complexity to Sleep Token's music.

Six-Stroke Roll: II doesn't just use the six-stroke roll (RRLLRL or LLRR LR) as a simple fill. He weaves it into the fabric of his grooves, creating a dynamic interplay between dense and open sounds. Whether played softly for a ghost note effect or accented for a powerful surge, the six-stroke roll contributes to the music's forward momentum and subtle rhythmic shifts. You can hear this in moments where the drumming feels both intricate and driving.

Triplets: Triplets are essential to II's fluid and often syncopated feel. He uses them in a variety of ways: rapid fills that inject bursts of energy, complex hi-hat patterns that contribute to a "Jungle" or broken beat vibe, and subtle groove variations that create a sense of swing or push. The contrast between straight eighth/sixteenth notes and triplets adds rhythmic tension and release, keeping the listener engaged.

Quads (Four-Note Groupings): II's precise execution of four-note patterns, whether as sixteenth notes or other variations, contributes to the tightness and complexity of the Djent-influenced sections. These patterns appear as powerful, syncopated kick drum patterns, rapid snare fills, or intricate combinations across the kit. His ability to maintain clarity and power, even at high tempos, is a testament to his technical skill.

What sets II apart is his seamless integration of these rudiments with electronic elements. For example, a rapid triplet fill on the acoustic kit might be mirrored or punctuated by a synthesized sound from a Strike Pad, creating a unique sonic texture that blurs the lines between organic and electronic sounds. 

Drawing inspiration from those observations, I incorporated his distinctive elements into this uncomplicated, yet undeniably engaging beat that captures attention and evokes emotion.

As I continue to create the simple yet deeply meaningful loops on my Alesis Strike Pad Pro, I'm on track to make my studio recording dreams a reality by Fall 2025.

In this latest piece, I'm excited to share another composition that draws inspiration from the unique sound of Sleep Token (STID). This creation has been carefully crafted over the past few weeks, with each line played thoughtfully on the Alesis Strike Pro. Like my previous piece, II, this one also has its own distinctive charm.

I truly hope you enjoy this work. If you’re curious about what I’ve learned from II, here are a few insights:

**The Gospel Influence:** One of the standout elements of II's drumming is its gospel-inspired flair. The use of ghost notes, intricate hi-hat patterns, and the emotional depth of his performance inject a soulful quality that enhances the music’s impact. It's more than just technical skill; there’s an emotional weight that resonates through the music. If you listen closely to tracks like "The Offering" or "Higher," you can almost feel the heartbeat of a church rhythm section supporting the heavier sounds.

**The Djent Foundation:** This is the backbone of much of Sleep Token's music, and II skillfully navigates its complex, syncopated rhythms with remarkable precision. His driving patterns and often dissonant polyrhythms create that signature hypnotic sound. He locks in perfectly with the guitars, contributing to a rhythmic structure that’s both powerful and nuanced.

**The Unique Blend of Jungle and Future Garage:** Here, II truly pushes the boundaries of modern drumming. By integrating broken beats and delicate ghost note patterns reminiscent of Jungle, along with atmospheric textures that evoke Future Garage, he adds a level of sophistication rarely heard in this genre. It’s not just about layering these elements; it’s about weaving them into a fluid rhythm. His use of space and silence, along with unexpected groove shifts, often reflects the dynamic nature of these electronic styles.

**The Thoughtful Integration of Electronics and the Strike Pad:** As a fan of the Strike Pad myself, I recognize its potential to enrich the sound. However, II has taken it a step further by incorporating electronic textures and percussive elements into the very core of his playing. These sounds blend beautifully with his acoustic kit, creating a dialogue between organic and synthetic sounds that adds layers of complexity and atmosphere that a traditional drum kit alone couldn’t provide. It’s a rich tapestry of sound that enhances the essence of Sleep Token.

What truly sets II apart isn't just his technical prowess across various styles but his ability to weave them together into a cohesive and distinctive voice. His musicality shines through in how rhythm can evoke emotion and atmosphere. He isn't merely keeping time; he’s actively shaping the emotional landscape of Sleep Token’s music.

It’s incredibly exciting to witness a drummer innovating in heavy music. II’s creative approach is a key part of what makes Sleep Token captivating and why they resonate deeply with musicians and fans alike

ESPECIALLY with me.

STID II

Until the tape runs out on me....

Join us as we embrace these moments of pause, stepping away from the relentless pace of everyday life... This is the rhythm that fuels our journey.

This transformation will reveal itself around the midpoint of the song, leading the listener toward a renewed experience in time. It won’t take much of a wait; anticipate a seamless shift before the composition reaches its conclusion.

At the 2:13 mark, my concept takes a descent, signaled by the pounding sound of the bass drum flams. To be truthfully candid, I find myself lacking complete satisfaction with how it stands at this moment, So I stopped "the tape."

"Burning, burning
Lift up your head and see the light
In the darkness I can't feel
In the darkness, burning
For you
I'm burning
And in the morning light
Like fire
Don't give up
There is always somewhere new
To be, be yourself
Burn inside you like a flame
Fire
There is always darkness
Shine, don't give up
Burning, burning
There is always darkness
Shine, don't give up
Burn inside you like a flame
Fire"

Lyrics by Wildsilences

Project: Life

Auel & Wildsilences - Fire

A track that sees without speaking,
where the world unfolds quietly behind a window of light and rain.
The rhythm is tender, like a glance held too long,
and the piano moves slowly
not to lead, but to reveal.
Through these sounds, you don’t just listen, you witness.
A quiet ache, a soft clarity.
Not the story itself, but how it felt to live it.
There is no need to explain.
Everything is already visible
through my eyes.

Through My Eyes

a re-edit of an old song. inspired by the music of Counting Crows. i love their way of storytelling. 

"I am the broken heart I am the lonely soul 
I am the blue and I am the breeze and
Portal of dreams
Mine to hold to be the one that seems like I am 
Sane
They've close the door again Built the walls around 
No more glass to see the outside
Inside now I must dream Inside now I must bleed 
Don't leave me here. 'Cause I will find you"

Lyrics:

I lost you
In the dark
Searched for days
Left no soul unturned
We searched for your ghost
Voices unheard of
Searched for your song
The love gone
Searched for your broken dreams
Searched for your words
Spirit unseen
Lost, lost, lost again
Like a ghost
