04/02/2024 - New Single; Resolution

I wrote a song sometime in 2019 it was a response to Aaliyah’s We Need A Resolution and I wrote it line by line changing them to their perspective. It’s from an album of me on all the tracks they can all be found on Bandcamp and maybe as a main release but some of the tracks are too loud and sometimes distorted thankfully this one came out okay so I thought I release it as a single with three other remixes I made after I made the original track I made in 2019 they are new basically. I enjoy songwriting and haven’t done it for a while now since I wrote back in 2019 when I made a few other albums. I like to get someone else to sing it so I can do the most and arrange a proper song or a House song something like Black Box or Inner Circle as I’m not a strong enough singer to sing melodies and harmonies and other stuff but I give it a go now and then. I haven’t yet found my voice as everyone has their recording voice I just speak the lyrics over the beat but I would like to sound more with it but I think it works for the song. I wrote it with the beat in the background and the lyrics to the original song which I found online writing a response to nearly every line. The song is just a playful funny ish song that talks about when people start to act ridiculous and the fallout of that which is not so much seeing Suzy anymore due to her selfish and paranoid roots of evil and also double standards of people due to their once again selfish and paranoid roots of evil need I say more.  The first track is the original track I mentioned before. It’s funny I did this before COVID-19 and the paranoid feeling when someone coughs it’s over now but once again something that I did before it happened maybe I’m good at timing or something but for some reason, I felt like putting a cough in it something I just thought of I don’t know why but it felt right so to speak. The situation as mentioned is a relationship gone sour and the need for a resolution to the ongoing back and forth which can be fitted to any situation in someone’s life which doesn’t have to be a relationship. There are a lot of one-liners and is one of my favourite tracks I wrote and it gets me back into writing more but I don’t have a mic at this time I’ll have to buy one and to be honest I don’t like getting on the mic too much but favour getting someone else to sing the lyrics as I mentioned before but I do enjoy songwriting and is one of my aspects I’m good. I’ve been writing songs since I was seven and also writing poems at the same age. Some of these get turned into songs sometimes changing them to responses for example if I wrote I hate myself the response would be Why do you look at yourself with such distaste or something simple like why do you hate yourself? or something like that. It’s pretty fun and I made my fair share of these tracks to my teachers when I was in school one read teacher, teacher turned into preacher where did she go she done lost her features. I was also good at making the school play rhymes or clapping songs rhymes and used to make them on the spot like like clap clap clap cheap like daps, her mother couldn’t afford it and that was that, they both were clapping songs and that one wasn’t as popular as what it said but I made up new ones every day or every time I was in the clapping circle with the girls and some boys. And for those who don’t know what Daps are they are cheap shoes but good for your P.E gear at school which is sports. The other three tracks are remixes one House remix one UK Funky House track and a Jungle/Drum and Bass track which are all new as I mentioned before and alternative versions of the original tracks which I did last month when I found the original track on my computer and though about rerelaseing it. 

Music News – New EP; High Voltage

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.

Music News – New EP; Fear Inside You

08/12/2023 - New EP; Fear Inside You

The last EP of last year 2023 and more clubby house tracks. I called it Fear Inside You as I thought it was a good title for an EP but more importantly, the older I get I’ll be 39 next year but the older I get I realise that fear was inside me and I can’t be shy or get paranoid about silly things and also things that are out of my control. I’m more of a happier person now I have dealt with my paranoia and other issues that were a burden to handle from a young age but I survived and got through it and I can still produce a smile. It’s not only fear that lives inside you that needs to be let go of but it’s also your well-being and not overdoing it with say drug substances or alcohol too much is damaging for your body. You might end up regretting starting the abusive relationship you will develop from too much drug substances or alcohol for example. This is except for cannabis and some other drugs I won’t mention not to get the hype bandwagon out but too much of something is always a bad thing. The other thing as the song from Martin Ikin’s Nothing To Fear goes, (And in case you don’t know what song that is it is a house banger with an acid bass and diva singing.) As the song goes “I think it’s something I feel but there is nothing to fear.” It’s all inside you and something you feel which at times can be quite tense and scary but it’s mostly in your head. Especially when you have the haters on your back but if you know you’re not X, Y, or Z there is no need to stress about it as they also say the truth will set you free and lies will always be unwebbed. I am a believer in not letting your fear get the better of you and doing bold things like doing something you don’t do and is out of your comfort zone especially if you see light at the end of a very dark tunnel. I was lucky though I had the guidance around me to guide me through my younger years and also my teenage years which helped me help other people better whilst they went through their troubles and stuff but it’s all swings and roundabouts. It’s the same with the luck I had from my younger years to around 22 which I’ll be sharing on this website gasnolight.co.uk as I make them. The first track Ahead is a bassy house track not my favourite on the EP but I like it. I think it needs something more to it but you can be the best judge of that. I do like the vocals which like always I get my vocals and one-shots and loops from splice.com. It reminds me of stuff you would hear in a club and I would say it is danceable or something you could stick on at a party but not my first choice.  The second track You is not the most danceable go-at-it track on the EP but I think it’s the type of music to have on in the background while you do your thing but is suitable for the lounge of a club or something for the cloak staff in the cloakroom. It does get more clubby at the end where I like to change the beat into something new, upbeat and faster-paced to close the song down. It’s one of my favourites on the EP and I like the end bit the most on this track even though I should have added more elements to it like some unexpected sounds. I’m relearning how to make music and is a step-by-step process which involves listening to other people’s music from the early years the most to get a good feel again. The next track There goes to the haters simply questions snivelling vinegary tits are you there? As in are you all there? Or do you need a blanket and some coco ha! I like the vocals on this and the bass I made which made it more unaware dancing in the club track which I’m happy with. It’s another favourite on the EP and probably my overall favourite on the EP as it’s something to dance to and have a good time and is something I would dance to in a club or rave for example. The last track Let Me is a bassy track and is a medium-paced track that is danceable but also good for just chilling or doing what you do like on the computer or jogging/working out. It’s not a favourite on the EP but once again I do like it and am happy with it even though I don’t class it as my favourite I like the change of feel to this track which makes it sound different from the others’s tracks on the EP as I like to make them all different or though that’s always the plan.

02/11/2023 - New EP; The Last Time

Happy New Year people I hope everyone had a nice night I didn’t do much but ah maybe next year. I made this EP now last year now and is another House music club party EP for you. I love to make House music quite a lot nowadays and seems to be the most popular so I thought I make more since I enjoy making it and is more popular than the other stuff I make but I will make more of the other stuff one day lol. The first track Born is a club party track that I think would be good for dancing and has a club/rave feel to it. It’s one of my favorites on the EP as I like the club feels to it and is good for stepping you can’t beat a bit of one-two-step music ha. I got all the vocals from the same place Splice.com and I think has the best club vocals that are good to go and don’t take much messing about IE putting FXs and other things on them. The next track Just is another favorite on the EP and is something I would have on in the background it’s not the most danceable track but the bass and the rhythms make the track and I think is something to enjoy. I like the vocals on the track and I also like the bass too I have a wide range of bases now but I tend to use the most bassy basses as I like my bass bassy and loud. I would say the track has club appeal to it and is something you could play in a club but is not the track to go wild with and is a steady pace track I would say. The next track May U is another bassy house club track that you could dance or bop to if you are not in the club. It’s another favorite on the EP and I would say my overall favorite on the EP as I like the bass and I also love the vocals to this one it makes it more vibey and clubby. I would say you could dance to it and is another track to two step to or skip to and is the stuff I tend to listen to in my spare time when I’m not making music or when I go out I love to listen to tracks like this and just lose the time and before you know it the lights are on and it’s over. 🙁 The last track Around The Corner was inspired by Christmas coming around the corner and now it’s over for another year but I based the title and the music on Christmas and was my House Christmas song even though you could listen to it throughout the year. I like the bass and again I love the vocals it’s a kind of opera that I ran to by accident and thought I could use the vocals for something special or what it was intended for. I would say it’s similar to Deep House and has a calm and pleasurable feel to it and is something you could have in the background or at the start of a night before you go out. You don’t hear a lot of Opera in House music so I think it’s unique and works quite well for Deep House and other genres similar to that. It’s not my favorite on the EP but I like it and think it’s some good music to listen to.
