Music News – New EP; And Along Came Alice

Part of my run-along Dorothy series and an Electronic EP I made not so long ago. I should explain the run-along Dorothy is to the people stuck in a fantasy and don’t want the help but rather perpetuate lies and fantasies about you and see every second of the day to make your life misery cos you believe in something different than them and the truth as far as I can see. Anyway, I got the idea for the title and the EP from the Alices in my life as for every Dorothy there’s an Alice and I do mean Alice In Wonderland. They like to hate and act bad bloody clout chasers always trying to copy you and steal your bag and shine but I don’t care as I know what I got and I’m sticking to it bite me. I’ve been listening to a bit of 70s Electronic and I went back to the drawing board with this one adding more bits and pieces to make the track more fuller. I was inspired by the ’70s and 80s Electronic playlist I created which can be found on my Mixcloud but I noticed how full it was so I added more beats and more changes to make it more fuller and I like the results.  I made the drum patterns and used my AKAI MPK Mini MIDI keyboard to play the notes but for the drums, I used the Roland 808, 606, and the Lindrum from my collection of one-shot drums and drum kits which I use on all my Electronic music I make. I don’t use the Lindrum that much but I’m going to make a habit of it in the future as they are good kits to use, oh and I used the Zenhesier 80’s Drum Kit as well for those Synthwave vibes. For the Synthesizers I used the Arturia V Collection and some from the Korg Collection, which again I use quite a lot on my Electronic music and favour them quite a lot. I was also listening to my other Electronic album Rebitten By The Lizard which is one of my favourite Electronic albums I made and also was trying to captivate the same mood of melodic dark and light music and I put this as one of my of my favourites Electronic EPs I made. It’s so unfair as I had a good life before I gave it all up for a simpler life but I was doing a lot of things not to brag or anything just to say how they use that to their so-called advantage and try to eat away at you but the memories are strong and I remember all the good times I had and won’t forget them again in a hurry as I actually forgot about all the things I did in the past and that some of it I was paid for it blows my mind. The first track The Nay Sayers is dedicated to all the naysayers as I said the barn is that way. I hate me some naysayers and hear them a lot online and also in my day-to-day life it really is damaging for your health but please carry on making a twit of yourself. Naysayers is a melodic vibe with a dark bass undertone that I played myself it’s one of my favourites on the EP as I like the melodic synth vibes and I also like the ending where it crescendos into the final. I also like the bass and I used the Mini Moog from Artria for the bass and I’m not sure about the synthy stuff but was either from the Korg Collection or the Arturia V Collection. The next track Alice is for all the Alices stuck in a fairy tale again please carry on you haven’t got to the best bit yet. Alice is a funky synthy number and again one of my favourites on the EP as I like the synthy beats over the bass and drums I made. I like the ending too which I made it a thing to go crazy at the end so please don’t blast it as it probably won’t sound as appealing at a normal level. The next track Monkey See Monkey Do is another one I quite like as I like the simple synth beat over the other melodic bass and synth stuff. I don’t know who opened the gates to the zoo but send them back as I’m tired of these monkeys banging on their chest like I’m meant to be afraid or upset they are so thirsty it’s unbelievable. Like the other tracks I like the ending to this one and I went crazy again adding more melodic vibes over the beat which I used the Artria V Collection I think and I think it goes quite well with the rest of the beat. The last track Diseased is for the sick and needy and is my overall favourite on the EP. They are diseased the lot of them every two seconds they want to add something diseased to the conversation they are twerps I kid you not. Diseased is a jazzy number that is joyful and melodic. I like the first synthy bit quite a lot and thinks it goes well with the other stuff it’s a good track to end the EP and is a ender.
