19/11/2024 - New EP Release; 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.

Music News – New Album; Destiny Awaits

19/04/2024 - New Album; Destiny Awaits

I’m back and this time with a short six-track Synthwave album because I felt like doing some as always so sure why not? I used my trusted AKAI MPK Mini and plugins from Arturia the V Collection as I love to use them a lot in all my synth stuff including Synthwave which I make when I’m in the mood like all the genres I make. I called it Destiny Awaits as I feel all our destinies are awaiting and to be fulfilled only we are all stuck in this cycle of self-doubt and unsureness that we can’t rise above the tomb and conquer what our destiny is whatever that is. I have to keep telling myself that I will get there with the right nudge push and fall but now isn’t the time for me with my illness, which I’m recovering from and what I think is a spine injury and some other complications from my mental health which is in the brain. I believe the medicine is doing good and doing what it’s meant to be doing which is stopping the bad side effects of a mental illness. But it’s true all our destiny awaits and not in the fate way cos some people are mixed up in that goth life aka death and corrosion lifestyle and need to see a brighter day but of course be careful of getting destiny mixed up with fate. Fate is death and a negative whilst destiny is a mission to fulfil and for example marry your childhood sweetheart or get that job you so hard practised for or associated with, that’s my definition of fate and destiny but each to their own. There was a post by none other than Jack Jumping Frost a well-known English Producer, DJ and MC who was one of the originals who DJ’d Jungle and Drum and Bass and has been going for quite some time now. Anyway long story short he had this statement where he said you must be willing to fail to win and how it will teach a lesson and it’s true. Your destiny isn’t to say it wasn’t my time or destiny but keep pushing and making baby steps as you go something I think Kelly Rowland and the famous Ciara said if you know you know lol, oh yeah and that lady with the fan action. It’s easy to give up and let the haters eat away at you but what they seem to fail to understand and contemplate is you have good and bad days it is swings and roundabouts so don’t feel like you failed or no one cares it probably was the wrong time or not something they are interested in unless you suck at your craft. The point is a couple of points actually but number one never listen to a naysayer they are diseased and are past their bedtime, number two believe in your craft or know with enough time and effort you will conquer whatever it is you are doing and get better. Number three never chase the dragon yeah you got a few likes and comments on your last whatever it is but it is swings and roundabouts and you are competing with other people but walk away if it’s past your quote of what you find acceptable but only if you have a backup plan or you believe in thirst mites shall we call them, stay hydrated people. I think it’s unfair to sell unsalable dreams but they sell you them anyway all to get your money and basically scam you or get you into debt with the lifestyle you will acquire once those stocks go up which reminds me of how to do those YouTube ads about BitCoin and shares get passed it seems a bit Pyramid Scheme where the little man is sold dreams and gets nothing but pips and ash from the fat cat’s cigars “please sir can I have some more.”  Moving on to the tracks I made the first track Eat This is a synthy Synthwave track and is one of my favourites on the album. I like the synths and I like the nighttime feel to it it feels late night and a bit mysterious and something about it. The bass is nice and chilled and sounds like a Sine to me over the other synths which I think I was using the Prophet stuff from Arturia and there are a couple of them so I’m unsure what model it is but it’s one of them. I liked the feel of those synths quite a lot and were quite popular in the 80s by 80s pop bands. The next track Has The Nightmare Started is a surreal and dark track and again one of my favourites on the album. It has my favourite bass rhythms which resemble the Progressive Rock bass and are quite melodic. I also like the synths to this and add to the dark and surreal feel to it. There is a remix to this song that will be out soon on the 6 Pack remixes where I make six remixes of the old stuff I mostly put out on Spotify etc that will be out in a few weeks. The next track Backstop is another dark and mysterious track I also made a remix to and will be out on my 6 Pack Remixes album in the next couple of weeks. I used to like using the sequencer quite a lot so it was good to use one again after a long break from using them. They all have them on there and good ones so I might actually make a sequencer EP or album sometime. I also like the strings on this one which makes it sound heavenly but dark heavenly with that sequencer in the background and awful bass. The next track Remember You is a melodic happy church vibe song which I like and makes me happy. It has more sequencer vibes on and I like that and the bass which gives it a jolly awake track if you know what I mean. It does have a touch of darkness but is mostly a pleasant happy track. The next track Let Go (Inside Fear) is my overall favourite on the album and I like the bass and the claps over the melodic synths which like all the others on this album I used the Prophet from the V Collection from Arturia. I also like its mysteriousness and the tinge of darkness it has to it and I like to use it quite a lot in my music, especially my synthy stuff. I like to keep clear of generic even though sometimes I make generic tracks but I tend to stay away from those kinds of sounds. The last track Search For Me is another favourite on the album it has a bright synth and dark once again Progressive Rock bass which I love to use a lot and like to play that way as I like the melodic bass feel to it. I also like the strings to it and the bits that are repeated after the first synth pattern. It has that nighttime feel too which I like and also appeals to the daytime too. The bit in the middle that repeats reminds me of the melody to Three Blind Mice which I didn’t do on purpose it just happened so don’t sue me lol.
