15/06/2023 - New EP; Rave On

A bit of a change a bit of Jungle/Drum & Bass all vocal and for the summer ahead which is now in less than 6 days and counting oh man ow I love the summer. I did this a couple of months back and it was on the to-do list but I kind of forgot about it which is good as there is a gap between the House music which I’ve been making quite a lot of recently.  I called it rave on as my old name was Rave Out and my Twitter name is @raveout85 but guess I should change it to something like gasnolight or something similar. Also to all the people getting their freaks on doing this and that we all must rave on even if you are at the beginning keep going as you never know where it might lead and could end up with your success never mind the downfall cos everyone has one. It’s hard to get motivated once you are stuck in limbo but once out of that rut it becomes easier and every day becomes fun again well it did for me. I’m kind of in limbo at the moment not knowing where this is going to lead but I have hope, strength and determination to overcome the hurdles or at least push the boundaries once more. Being productive in life and doing the best you can do is like going out and having a good time you give 199 per cent you have a good time making memories and you go home and wait for the next best thing to happen as everyone has their ups and downs but it is like partying and you never know who you might meet or see or hear I miss my old life. Rave on also means we must fight bad feelings and overcome the barriers as again everyone is faced with a  challenge big or small and I think we can’t sit there and wallow for too long as it leaves you in a bad place and worse off take it from me I may have had lots of highs but that was to make up for all the bad times and to do better in life and live life not sit at home like now but to be honest I’m happy now or though I would like people to bounce ideas off but I’m kind of happy I still want more from life people say I’m being greedy but in fact I just like a good adventure and something to do instead of sitting at home doing nothing it does get numb when I just sit there and do nothing my mind starts wondering off. I can’t sit there in silence though I have to have music playing not always loud it’s mostly quiet but I never got why people would sit in a room in silence for months something ain’t right and anyway who wants to listen to the noisy world around us I would rather listen to music all day every day and all different genres. I guess it’s having music constantly around me from my old house to my day-to-day life and my Walkman it’s everywhere thankfully I don’t know where I would be without music it’s my pain reliever and energizer thank you for the music lol.  

Music News – New Single; Love Isn’t A Thing

26/05/2023 - New Single; Love Isn't A Thing

A mixed bag of House and a Jungle tracks that I made recently and was a single as I felt like doing a single I haven’t done much of them only the odd one or two so I decided to make one for fun and put it out on all the digitals and more summery music for the nice weather. It’s been so nice I got my fan on it’s been a hot night, to be honest, but thank goodness for the fan lol. I have more club tracks lined up like this and I think it’s a massive improvement but I let you be the judge of that when they are released within the next two weeks but should be less than that, or alternatively go to my Soundcloud page the link is in the top header menu with all the other socials. As the title reads love isn’t just a thing and it’s not a game either I hate to see people in misery cos they mistreated the person so love them right basically and that does count me as a person why not. We have all been in love I remember one person I won’t say her name but I thought we would be together for eternity but it wasn’t meant to be we were on both different paths like she wanted to settle down and live dare I say normal lives and I also loved the excitement and a bit of change every now and then so that was one thing and the main reason why we dare I say again fall apart but it didn’t end sour which is always a good thing. I bring that up as it was at that time I realised that love wasn’t a game and even though I have seen many car accidents when it came to love it dawned on me when I was around 15 that I was to take it seriously or have no love at all. Turns out other people wouldn’t take it as seriously as I did but hey we were young and dumb so it’s all in the past but if I was married with kids that would be different…sort of. I’m very picky with what I do and for example who I will have kids with if I will ever have any at all which I doubt but there were times when I nearly did and I was always careful it was the right choice again turns out that wasn’t the right choice to make for me and I enjoy being single with no ties and kids and being in a relationship does that and I like to be free and do whatever I like without the hawking and the arguing etc, no remain single and be happy every day without all the stress anyway I enjoy being alone but I do admit I need some more friends to bounce off from and do random stuff and talk about random stuff that would be nice in a way but for now I’m happy making music and doing this and that online that makes me happy but love is a serious thing and shouldn’t be treated as second-hand luggage but of course choose who you fall in love with friends or other and love does include your friends even though I find it hard myself to say this words “I love you” there lol but love is here so everyone stop whining about love doesn’t love me I hate the world cos that isn’t going to get you back in motion and I like to prepare for the future.  

Music News – New EP Release; Phone Calls Of The Past

26/12/2022 - New EP Release; Phone Calls Of The Past

More Jungle and Drum & Bass for you. I named it Phone Calls From The Past as I believe in leaving the past in the past along with all the baggage including frenemies in the past. It’s sort of like an old phone you don’t use anymore or a person you don’t wish to speak to and not picking up on them. It’s important to make mistakes my worse mistake is taking so much crap from some micro-aggressive people who run around for fish sticks and clout I mean wtf man, but anyway moving on. I always say you should only forgive for so long I mean I person can make that same foul mistake and believe me it has to be foul before you say enough is enough I now admit being too nice isn’t the way forward but you still have to be nice and forgiving in some degree but it depends on what they did. Also, the EP is about the good times of the past some more of that as well it’s sort of like having a funny conversation over the phone that makes you laugh. It’s also about leaving the past in the past and moving forward with your life with or without the people you once cared for which is a hard decision and not one I take lightly. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter where you are now only you can move forward and advance to where you want to be in life but the phone calls are our memories and what we hold dear. Also knowing when to put down the phone and to be strong enough to walk away at the best point before it gets sour but hey that’s relationships for you but we all need one.

25/11/2022 - New EP Release; Courtesy Of The Memories

A Drum and Bass and Jungle EP for you seems to be popular on my channels so I made another one and will make some more in the summer when it’s rave music mainly with some synth stuff or at least that’s the plan. I have a lot of good memories and also loads of good nights out and this EP is around the good times missing all that sorrow for another time. Also, I’ve made got some top tips and real love from people at the Fire Station (shout out to them) it’s a place in Bristol for up-and-coming and current artists, DJs and promoters in the 90s it’s not there no more but this EP is and means courtesy of the time making music there and getting away as a child and youth and being around GOOD people. The EP is mainly clubby and danceable there was a slight hiccup on one of the tracks called Wormz but I will be sorting that out and renaming and reposting on Spotify etc in the further. I won’t go into my memories as I did a whole blog post about my past which can be found in the interactive section on my other site randomgas.com where it’s all my other than music stuff as I make stuff on my computers like visuals and stuff but it’s not that about that it’s all about making memories and new ones and keep adding onto that as we don’t live forever and it’s better than sitting at home crying about nothing when there are things out there to get involved with. I myself have to go out and do more stuff as I am not satisfied no more at sitting at home no more I want more from life guess I need to suck up my fears and get on with it also good luck to you too.   

Music News – New EP Release; Party & Chill

2/06/2022 - New EP Release; Party Chill

Party Chill is a chilled Jungle or what I call liquid Jungle which is downtempo and another one for the summer. I wanted to make some Jungle and went for a summery vibe that was relaxing but still upbeat and good for concentration or it makes me think better at least.  It’s not all downtempo Jungle and has some upbeat tracks in there too which I decided to have both upbeat and downtempo for a bit of a change and to also not have it so sleepy. There’s nothing wrong with being strong or though I feel it’s good to have a softer side to you it’s all about being strong and not being that weak person bringing everyone down which I’ve seen a lot and hate when people are weak and bring you down or don’t like you cos you’re too strong. When I say survival fitness I mean being strong enough to live on this earth without any self-doubt or even hating and being strong enough to make it to where you want to be which for me is to be where I was before loosely making music and entertaining which is something I like to do. I do enjoy Liquid Drum and Bass and this EP was inspired by that, I used to listen to a lot of Liquid Drum and Bass on the internet and I wished I knew the names of the tracks that go for any genre though as most of the tracks I heard on nights out or just passing which was a lot of tracks from the 90s and 00s from House and Jungle.

6/05/2022 - New EP Release; Way Thru

Way Thru is a vocal Jungle/ Drum & Bass EP I made not so long ago and is of the old skool nature as I like that more rather than the dubstep kind of stuff you get. I got the vocals and breaks online and I went for the more is less is more approach on this one I also started using the limiter to give it that full feel as I now notice without it the sounds are in the back and not distinctive enough to notice bits you wouldn’t hear without the limiter. I was going to make it all instrumental but I enjoy tracks with vocals and it’s more fun and I feel it sounds better so I added them in. I’ve been trying to get back into the harder Jungle and Drum and Bass as I noticed my tracks were more for relaxing pleasure rather than for dancing and even though it was at the correct BPM it came across as slow and relaxing and I hope this EP gets you moving in some way.  I plan on doing more Jungle/Drum & Bass soon as it’s soon the summer and I love to make and play summer tracks in the summer obviously and rave music has that summer appeal to it and is something I do every summer so expect more of that real soon over the summer and autumn too.

Music News – New EP Release; R Us

29/03/2022 - New EP Release; R US

This EP is about the lost toy store Toys R US a loved shop by many and part of many side jokes that I actually can’t remember. My experience with toy shopping was always disappointing as I never got what I was looking at which is the way of life but damn that action figure looked cool on the TV and I refuse to swear about it lol. I also decided to make it as I was messing about and discovered some things in the making of it that I yet haven’t discovered if I set out what I was hunting for which was toy music. Without sounding too old-fashioned ain’t the toys nowadays technical oh wow and also quite expensive to keep buying or is it phones and IPads they desire? I desire synths which are my toys and I like to mess around with them a lot but I know they ain’t toys but I call them that as they are fun and you never get bored okay you do but it takes a long time depending on many days, weeks, months or years you’ve been playing for. I can go for a while but I take breaks and do other things like promoting and video visuals and editing and also photoshop but also my website too which I love to do in my spare time which is all the time at the moment.Â
