This time around, let's do the emotions/tone of a song. I'll be writing songs in 1 of the top 2 options throughout the next two months.

2023-08-20 16:32:56 +0000 UTC View PostThis week was a condensed session that took an unexpected direction. I started off with some anthem progressive house in mind but ended up going in more of a Deadmau5-influenced direction. That sai...
2023-08-17 15:36:33 +0000 UTC View PostThis week, I returned to progressive house. I wanted to right something simple and uplifting. This song is short and to-the-point and written with a vocal in mind. There are a lot of things to add ...
2023-08-10 16:51:21 +0000 UTC View PostThis week's session, I had no plan going in. A jazzy piano chord progression turned into downtempo lofi house with some deep house influences. As the idea progressed, I added in a lot familiar AN l...
2023-08-03 17:04:15 +0000 UTC View PostI began yesterday's session with every intention of writing something "different" but inspiration took hold and this direction felt the most natural. I like this idea, but it does feel dated. Maybe...

Looking back, Mount Olympus is one of my songs I'm most proud of. It's relatively simple, but the underlying themes are very powerful. I've often thought of writing more like Mount Olympus and mayb...
2023-07-21 21:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostYesterday's session had some ups and downs. I love the chord progression and overall vibe, but I spent ~2 hours trying everything to get the song to gel only to find out the bass was using the 3rd ...
2023-07-20 15:56:41 +0000 UTC View PostContinuing with some ideas in different genres and at different tempos, I really like this one. I started with a piano chord progression, slowed the tempo to around 100bpm, and chose a different dr...
2023-07-13 16:09:30 +0000 UTC View PostThis month, I'm moving on to the 2nd poll option - a genre I've never tried before. I started out with a piano chord progression and a ~90bpm vibe. I kept the melody simple, went with a 4-on-the-fl...

The vinyl's are now in production!
I put together another mockup so you can get a better idea of what size the designs will be on a 7" vinyl. Production time for the vinyls i...
2023-07-05 17:57:35 +0000 UTC View PostThis week I'm continuing with the intense progressive house vibes. This idea has some ~2015 Big Room influences, but I wanted to include some orchestral drums in the build and a more current future...
2023-06-29 17:31:12 +0000 UTC View PostThis week I set out to write something with heavy inspiration from Aurora. Some orchestral influences combined with intense progressive house as well as a similarly structured melody. It's not amaz...
2023-06-22 16:13:35 +0000 UTC View PostI'm back at it this week and based on the recent poll, I set out to write something darker, more inten...
2023-06-15 16:31:39 +0000 UTC View PostBeen a minute since we've done one of these. This time around I'm including both genre options and tone/emotion options. I'm giving myself a bit more flexibility and will have the option to write i...
2023-06-08 16:20:55 +0000 UTC View PostThis week I'm back to writing electronic music. I set out to write a simple house idea with minimal piano that didn't have any plucks in it. Too often, I rely on familiar things and I thought it wo...
2023-06-01 14:31:00 +0000 UTC View PostJust a quick reminder that TODAY is the last day to qualify for the vinyl as a Creative Crew!
Since it's already late today, I'm making the ...
2023-06-01 00:47:12 +0000 UTC View PostI wanted a change of pace this week, so I wrote something cinematic. I wanted to write something depicting a battle of some sort, but it evolved into this. It's still missing some things, but I'm r...
2023-05-25 15:49:25 +0000 UTC View PostFirst off - March 31 was the cutoff for ANimal tiers to qualify for the vinyls. The only way to qualify now is to be a part of the Creative Crew this month before I place the order. There a...
2023-05-19 16:35:17 +0000 UTC View PostAfter writing a decent chord progression on stream yesterday, I tried 2 separate ideas - Old school AN House (Evolve style - like "Our Last Night") and DnB. I really like both ideas but I think the...
2023-05-18 14:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostI wanted to write something different this week so I returned to a style I've written a lot of over the last few years - piano/progressive house. During the session I was more granular than u...

Time for a surprise remix! I wasn't originally planning anything this week, but I was listening to a Zelda playlist, this came on, and I thought it would make a really good chill remix!
Downl...
2023-05-06 15:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostThis week is another idea that I'm pretty excited about. Like last week, this came together pretty nice...

With Tears of the Kingdom coming in 2 weeks, now feels right for a remix of the original theme from The Legend of Zelda. I hope the game is great and I hope you like the remix! This is available to...
2023-04-28 21:22:56 +0000 UTC View PostThis week I'm continuing with some uplifting house. This idea is simple, but I really like it. The drop needs some love but it's already pretty good. And with some adjustments I think the verses an...
2023-04-27 16:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostThis week I set out to write something uplifting and memorable. It's been awhile since I've written in this style so it felt like a good time to return to it. I started out with some basic chords a...

Time for another song! This song started out as "Nebulous" back in July of 2022. I really liked the ch...
2023-04-14 16:35:22 +0000 UTC View PostThis week's session was very structured compared to ideas over the last few months. I started out with a pretty specific goal in mind and the idea came together nicely. I spent the bulk of the sess...
2023-04-13 16:13:34 +0000 UTC View PostThis week I wanted to try a different vibe. One of the main things I don't switch up often is drums - I write mostly in 3 genres (house/trance, Dubstep/Future Bass, DnB) and the drums there follow ...

I've been waiting years for the right time to remix this. The movie releases next week and now felt right! What's your favorite Mario game?
Mp3, 24-bit wave, & album art are attached. As ...
2023-04-01 16:30:02 +0000 UTC View PostThis week I wanted to switch things up so set out to write something more intense. I started with drums, then bass, and finally a melody. This idea has a pretty strong foundation and I think it tur...
