20/01/2023 - New EP Release; Sucker Game

A UK Funky and House EP which is all vocal. I haven’t made much UK Funky or House for a while as I’ve been making Drum and Bas/Jungle which has been getting me the plays that I want on Spotify, Soundcloud etc but I do enjoy making House and UK Funky even though I more used to making House it was good to try and make something new as I’ve done an album and a couple of tracks that I was and wasn’t happy with. I called it Sucker Game as I see a lot of suckers in the mist and I also feel some people are being drawn into stuff that has no meaningful explanations or exact answers apart from the obvious which is all debatable but not exactly stuff within our control so therefor is not worth stressing about but worth debating face to face as an open discussion and your thoughts on it instead of being in this fear-mongering society we live in. This doesn’t mean to be ignorant of the situation but don’t be suckered into the fear and go or say something stupid or something that could land you in hot water. I think the world is getting a bit dare I say it dunce and people are willing to believe anything but not believe the smaller things in life also due to the rise of clout and fame it’s harder to tell your story without being judged, crossed examined or be called a liar which okay I can take being crossed examined and in a way called a liar I have nothing to lie or hide but I know they do but I do think people need to slow down with the look at me I trying to breathe over here lol!

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.

Music News – New Single Release; Elephant Bounce

22/12/2022 - New Single Release; Elephant Bounce

A mixed genre single from House, Jungle and a bit of synthy stuff with sounds I recorded whilst I was out and about at a playground with old playground equipment which I did a little blog post about it on my old site but I might repost again and use all the stuff I got to like the photos and videos if I still have them.  I recorded the original version a couple of years before and was on my Haunted Playground EP which I made for Halloween a couple of years before. It’s not new and I made a version while I was doing a bit of work experience with the school and I recorded a version I think it was at the zoo or at a place called the Fire Station I can’t remember now. Some of the  poor elephants come from the circus and other places kept as a pet and the same with the tigers where I learned that at Isle Of Wight Zoo something I am against and not the circus but animals like wild animals like elephants and tigers they shouldn’t be kept as an entertainment property it’s sad and not worth going to see for me as I don’t want to be the next person to see a stunt go horribly wrong and that’s putting it lightly.  I do wish to see it banned and like to shout out all the states and countries that have banned wild animals for entertainment kudos to you. I have made a visual for one of the songs on this single and that can be found on my YouTube channel if you are interested the link is on the top of the screen above the menu. where you can go straight to my channel it’s called Elephant Bounce also and I think it’s all the songs in one plus the visual I made for it all for the elephants.

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.

3/06/2022 - New EP Release; Mind Situations

A House and UK Funky EP again for the summer and is a little different to what I usually make but I’ve made it in the past and wanted to make more but make it better than the last time as I wasn’t happy with the outcome of the album I made before. I used to work in the UK Funky field what as that is yet to be decided but shout out to Supa D for giving me the part but it was a whole lot of walking around and promoting also music-making but I went all over the UK outside clubs and bars and field research and that was fun and a right laugh but was tiring, it paid well though and opened so many doors for me it was untrue. I saw on the internet that UK Funky isn’t dead and I haven’t heard that much in more recent years and that’s good to see that it hasn’t died but I miss going out raving it was one of my favourites to rave to or to go out on a night out whatever and wherever that was. UK Funky is just one of my favourite genres and is hard to put it in numbers from best but House and Jungle is also my favourite which is why I also make a lot of that it all stems from the rave scene I have always been a part of and started from an early age, while I’m there shout out to all the old ravers, promoters DJs and anyone else its kind of weird as when the rave scene went quiet around 1992 I forgot all about it and went back to the normal life which was good as I was just a kid but I’m been dipping in and out throughout the years. 

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.

Music News – New EP Release; Day Off

1/06/2022 - New EP Release; Day Off

A House EP I made for the up and coming summer and is a positive EP. I make House, Jungle and other rave genres throughout the summer and is what I call summer music so there will be lots more House and Jungle over the summer so look out for that. As I said I went for a more positive vibe for the EP and picked vocals that had a positive feel to them and House has always been inspirational so this is an inspirational EP from that. I called it Day Off as I’m on my day off and taking a rest bite for a bit but now I’m going back to the old me who was ambitious and a person who never quits and with tracks like Get It Done and Walk-in Dream is what I was trying to say. It’s also something I stand behind not giving up and the old saying you never get anywhere if you don’t try is something I’m a testament to as all that hard work does pay off eventually you just need to keep at it and don’t throw the towel in too early. The other part of the EP is about having fun and is about letting your hair down and not faking the flex aka not blagging it to where you want to be or lying and pretending you are somewhere you are not which I see a lot of people doing that and agreeing with it the people who don’t.  It’s about working that toosh in whatever you are doing but No Flex Zone is about dancing which you know when I go to the club it’s what I like to do let go and have a good time which is what the track is about.

1/06/2022 - New EP Release; Picture This

Another House EP for the summer and is more upbeat club tracks to get you in the mood for the summer and weekend or whatever is the case. All the tracks are vocal as I like my House vocals and tend to put them on all my House tracks as it makes it sound better in my opinion and more fun to make too. As I said before living life to the fullest is what it’s about and something I try to do or I used to now I’m unsure where to go or look for and just do this and that and see what comes my way but it’s about living life and not being worried about whatever it is and just going for it. This is what it’s about and something I preach a lot I say well you’re going to let  Becky ruin your chances, I wished some people would wake up and see their full potential it’s tiring going around being the cheerleader something I haven’t done in a while but used to do to all my close friends. It’s safe to say I’m kind of blessed and even though I do have a mental illness and all the crappy things that have happened I am still blessed with all the good things that have happened in my life and I only look at the positive side of things which is why and how I don’t go the other way in the down and out life but I do have my bad days but I always try and think of the positive side of things before I get all crazy and low but keeping busy helps with that.

16/05/2022 - New EP Release; Late Nights

Late Nights is a House EP I made and is for the summer which is just over a month’s time, one month and one day to be exact. It is an upbeat club EP that I got the vocals and drums from off the internet and I made my own synthy patterns up but I did get the one-shots off the internet too. I called it Late Nights as I’ve been having a few of them lately but also in the past and like to spend my time making music and doing other stuff too.  I always find myself staying awake or at least staying awake till morning and then going to bed which is terrible I know but I have a funny sleeping pattern. I guess I’m used to all-nighters or late nights and I used to go out a lot but I’ve calmed down now and barely have the energy to go out or I’m too busy to go anywhere which is something that happens a lot but going out raving doesn’t help with insomnia or the fact that my life is kind of boring or though I do inject some fun into my life when I get really bored of my situation. But I don’t think I could go raving no more and do the early morning after-party that’s always a killer and takes preparation and a warm-up but I can stay awake for a long time if I had good sleep and that’s important, I mean sleep.

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.
