More Jungle/Drum and Bass music with this quick single I made quite a while ago now and found the original version on my computer so I thought I’d make a single by adding two more tracks. There were actually four to make it a EP but I had to take it off but hopefully I’ll be allowed to add it on another single, EP or even album. I made the original track and the first track on the single in summer of 2021 around and was my chilled Jungle/Drum and Bass track to have on in the summer. It was like you were in a heatwave and you are chilling on a country field enjoying the heat and don’t forget your summer hat ladies lol. I used the synth plugin Omnisphere for those synths sounds, it has some really nice sunny type sounds that are perfect for those summer chill out tracks and also for winter I think they have some diverse sounds on them even though it is expensive but most treasured synth plugins to use for summer and winter beats and you heard it hear first lol. I called the single Dimmed Lights as the first and the original track had that dimmed light feel to it plus I believe she’s saying light all over the track so I added that as well. It’s funny as it’s also was a note to myself to change the light bulb in my life as things were getting dim and I could no longer see in the past no more. As I keep saying it all feels like a blur and  a past memory but so much has changed over the decades and  whilst I was growing. It’s hard to pin point where the fun was really coming from as there was a lot going on at that time and the world was a oyster for talented and business savvy people who ceased the day and hit it big. I also think the government has ruined some things and made it harder to have fun they kept adding new laws which later diminished the fun and all the activity that was going on around the 1980s up to the mid 2000’s when everything capsized so that’s the other reason behind the title Dimmed Lights. This is the last one I’ve made that is up for release so it’s back to making more singles, EPs and albums I think I’ll do another House EP since people like them with more Synthwave and general synthy beats to come in the next couple of months so please stay tuned. The first track as I said was the original track I made around 2019 and is one for those summer barbecues and hot sticky days. It’s a relaxing pace track with melodic chimes and a deep bass with a overlay of House vocals which I used for this Jungle/Drum and Bass track. It’s perfect to have on in the background for any event and is also good for concertation if you are studying or even reading it make you read 10 times quicker as long as it’s not blasting that is. It’s my favourite on the single and I like the relaxing chimes and the vocals over the beat which I think suits it quite well, I also like the bass which helps the concertation of the beat. The next track Dimmed Light (Remix) is the club version and is the danceable track I made around a couple of months ago and is one for those hot days dancing if you ain’t too hot. I used the same instruments changing some of them to make it sound a little different from the first track. I used a Reggae sample pack for those skank keys and also I got the bass from there too and for the piano I used a original House key that I found within the Reggae sample pack but I think it’s quite diverse and was used on both genres. The last track Dimmed Lights (The Break Remix) is another one for those steppers and runners. I think it’s a perfect track to get fit to whilst doing some steps around the house or even at the gym and you can also dance to it as it is a dance track. I arranged it a bit different to the other two using the same vocals and keys as the first one for a step it up track. I think is also perfect for those sunny days chilling in the garden or wherever and I got the breaks from Splice.com where as you should know by now where  get all my samples from but also I got them from my own private collection I bought from Loopmasters.com.   

Some more Jungle/Drum and Bass for you with this three-track EP there was another one but it got vito by my distributor but bare with me as I’m reloading it for another EP or album coming real soon…probably lol. I called it Call and Send as calling and sending is an old pass time and is based around a phone call with the start, middle and end of a voicemail call the process I mean. They are all old tracks I made around 2019 to 2020 when I was making a lot of good Jungle and Drum and Bass and I thought they were good enough for the major releases and to rerelease as a major release available on all major music platforms. It’s funny as the tracks weren’t based around a phone call at first but were of various EPs I made so it wasn’t until now when I looked at the track list names and thought of the idea of it being a phone call. Also, it’s a follow-up to one of my unreleased EPs called Cold Caller a synthy EP I made and can be found on my paid Bandcamp and Soundcloud page. As always if you didn’t know by now I use Splice.com for all the vocal samples in this EP and some good ones really came out good I think, and one off the internet also which I can’t remember where I got it from it could also be from Splice.com. For the basses, I used a Reggae sample pack which has a lot of good clean and dirty dub basses which are an essential mix for making a Jungle/Drum and Bass track or I could have got them off Splice.com as I was using more of their bass samples more often around that time but I do like that sample pack it makes the tracks more the way I like it to sound bassy, old skool/new school and siny.  It’s also funny as I hate speaking on the phone and to strangers, you always get the cold callers and the pre-recorded messages about double glazing, solar panels or something tax-related. But I hate speaking on the phone it makes me nervous even though sometimes I actually can do it I have to know you to fully have a conversation with you or to break the ice which is what they are actually good at doing so I don’t know what the fuss is lol. That’s why email is the best form of contact for me I don’t know why I just don’t like to speak on the phone or even worse on the live chat although one day I will be there but for now, I’m going to sit myself down and have a nice one and a cup of coffee.. ahh! The first track Leave A Message is an upbeat rave track I made sometime in 2019 to 2020. I used a voicemail message or what they call a footnote on the track “The number you have dialed is not available at present please check the number and try again” You know that dreaded message looks like someone is playing hot potato lol. I like the bass on this one and the vocal sample chop-up of the ringtone and the voice footnote which I actually can’t remember where I got it from but it was definitely a find. The next track Leave A Message (I Hate Ya) is the response to the first track on this EP and one of my overall favourites that I made so far and off this EP. I like the pickup in the middle and love the vocals I used especially the hook and the pickup of the track which is in the middle when it changes. I also like the dramatic strings  I used in the pickup or when it changed to more of the furious dance session. I would say this one is for the club and to be played loud and is good release music. I got the vocal samples from Splice and I like the last vocal the most which I think makes the track into a good old-fashioned underground track. The last track The Reply (You’re Cray Cray) is the response to the last track and what the other person who received the voicemail said. It features me and I used my own voice and an adlib I quickly said down the microphone and made it around 2019 originally. It’s another favourite on the EP and I like the frantic synth and bassy bass over the pitched-up vocals of mine which I chopped up and made something out of. It’s another one to dance to and for the rave or to have loud if you like but not too loud lol.
