29/1/2024 - New EP; Watch The Voltage

More music and it was the first EP of the year I didn’t know what I was going to make but I was listening to some old-school Jungle and Hardcore music from 1992 – 1993 by DJ Mickey Beam and I thought I was feeling some Jungle so I made it so more Jungle/Drum and Bass since I haven’t done it for a while now and getting a good feel of old school Jungle and also Hardcore music which is House mixed with break music, vocals, bass and synthy vibes. Even though it does have all those elements in the four-track EP, it doesn’t resemble the music I was listening to or was I trying to resemble it but is more in the mids 00s and 10s around where the bass was still bassy, melodic and harmonized. I’m quite pleased with how they turned out and I have my favourites, but as I like them all, I do have my favourites in the club and making music. I called it Watch The Voltage as perusal people need to watch the voltage come to find out I could attach that to several things in my own life right now. It’s all fine and dandy when you are sticking the plug into the main wires for the first time IE eating all that nasty up and all the lies and cowardness some people seem to go with it. Still, if you stick your fingers in the socket you are going to get an electric shock, especially with that silver spoon hanging out your mouth. The first track Watch The Voltage is a darkish bassy track which you can dance or rave to it’s sort of the music I myself like to dance to and is one of my favourites on the EP. I found the clip on a website it was a site where you can download free old movie clips and stuff and I liked the clip I used in the track. It sounds familiar to me but I’m not sure where I know it from. But yes damn the voltage is high on some of these channels but’s died down now but there was a lot of rotten tea shall I say. The next track I Can Feel is another bassy but radio-friendly track the vocals I got from Splice.com and I liked them for whatever reason so I put them in the track. I like the vocals and the bass the breaks I don’t actually make myself I also get them from Splice.com which is as you should know where I get my most legal stuff which is royalty-free or meant to be. I only say that as one release got thrown out the window saying it was copywritten material and got deleted from my account with no time to chase up the dispute I still haven’t chased it up, I’ll have to find it again but anyway I can make more lol. The next track Your Desires is my favourite on the EP and I am quite proud of it, to be honest. I like the vocals they are nice and powerful and reminiscent of 90s house and Jungle/Drum and Bass it definitely makes the song and gives it some impact. I also like the strings, I used the M1 from Korg I seem to like that a lot you get some good strings and other sounds to make good old-fashioned rave tracks. I’m sorry but I say it loud still can’t compare to new styles like the new wave of Dubstep and other genres that are new. I say the new style of Dubstep was more like slower at times Garage or UK Garage and was softer but bassy and had a lot of melodic stuff not just hard-hitting whops and ear-grinding sounds…..am I in the grandad in all this…huh! Moving on to the last track In This Darkness is another radio-friendly track that is a bit soft but has a hard bass to it.  I like the vocals and again I use the Korg M1 for the synthy stuff I did say I liked or preferred the tracks without the synths and liked or preferred bass and drums but I do like using synths on the tracks still and I’m now thinking a mixture of tracks with and without the synths on there but it’s hard to find the ones I like and would use to make it swing right but it might be cos I’m too picky and stuff lol.
