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.

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.

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.

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.
Trial & Error – Session 2
I’m back with another experimental and sampling post with more free downloads. These two tracks are from a holiday video from Black Gang Chime which is an amusement park on the Isle Of Wight and also I used clips from the film Pink Flamingos. I have made three tracks from the samples from the film and I got one Jungle, one House, and now one Experimental, and probably the last one I might make four though and release it as an unreleased EP on SoundCloud. Once again I used my cassette recorder and it’s coming out more wobbly but I actually like the wobble to it and have cleaned it up a bit I might have to switch over tapes or stop using the same bits as they weren’t the best quality tapes but sounded good on the first couple of recordings. I didn’t use many filters not the heavy-duty ones but I did use Fabfilter on them to make them sound better and less harsh I also did use a lot of delays, especially on the last track Divinity but I did use some heavy-duty filters on one or two tracks. I like to go in blind and not have any expectations except to make it good and mess about with FXs like delay and reverb and also those heavy-duty filters from Arturia and SoundToys. It’s a whole lot of experimenting which I love to do and is just a break from the main genres I make but I do enjoy making experimental music and also sampling which I did for all the tracks and are some of my older tracks I made and also I made the samples too.
EXTINCT CREATURES
Here are the tape recordings of the samples I recorded onto the tape and are from another holiday video when I went to the Isle Of Wight in 2018 and a place called Black Gang Chimes another amusement park.
FINAL SAMPLES
Here are the samples after I cleaned them up I only used Fab Filter and I didn’t use any effects also the samples are a free download the link is at the bottom of the page to the final samples from both tracks.
FINAL TRACK
DIVINITY (EXPERIMENTAL VERSION)
Here is what I recorded onto the tape and from the cult classic film Pink Flamingos starring the late Divine and if you know you know lol, also some of my older tracks I resampled from a track called Angry Days off my album called Mental Tape.
FINAL SAMPLES
Here are the final samples from what I recorded and that I Eqed and compressed not any effects on this one too I’m trying not to use the filters all the time as it will make it sound different.
