Description : November 30th marks the day my first single off my forthcoming album "Filter" has been released.
"Reflection" was uploaded earlier, chosen over 2 other singles I was contemplating over which single I was going to release first. It's got a Dirty-Electro feel to it, which is a major positive for first-impressions of the album, which is ultimately why it became single number 1
The song is about someone who thinks they're so mature and grown-up, when really they're just an "self-concious adolescent" inside who wants to act older than they are.
The chorus is basically saying that the "reflection" of that person is their true identity, and that they may need some "protection" when they realise that this is who they really are, since they may get shocked or "freak-out".
The main verse of the song is just myself giving insight on what I believe is happening in this person's mind, how they "over-estimate" what they think they can do, that they think they can "hold a life they can't tear" and also they're in a stage I dub as "psuedo-maturity" - i.e. faking their maturity
Anyways have a listen, and I hope you enjoy it

Neat vibe! The bass synth is played in reverse aKa "reflection" Very wierd and trippy sound. "Your Gonna Freak Out!" Keep up the new wave sound and groove shadow444.. peace, dance, and love-making... djcliff

nice melodies, very catchy!
vox might be a little too loud, other than that i think you got ya self a good single there, which tells a common story, if you know what i mean, i see it all the time!
Description : Feel free to check out the video on YT as well (Alan McLaren Project - Upside Down) of this 6min journey from electronic to rock with some psychedelic moments...
This is my latest, but also one of my earliest tracks.... any feedback is more than welcome, thanks :)
Description : A demo of one of my current projects. The chorus vocal sounds like "Aaaaraashe" to me. The song is in C# minor with a nod to C# pythagorean on the chorus. The beat on the verse was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song Intruder.
Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.
Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Description : Far out mid-tempo fat beat deep chillout grooves with Eastern/Arabic and slightly menacing vibes, huge delayed synth bass and a great palette of psychedelic layered and intricate sounds (mostly synths) and a stirring, epic feel. Even has guitar solo section reminiscent of some 80s power rock which is then followed by a brief synth harp solo. I began making it straight after staying round the flat of the flute player from the legendary Ozric Tentacles - easily the greatest ever space rock band. I made this in about 2001 and still think it might be my best track (and it's nice and short, for a change). My production skills were much weaker in those days (no EQ, compression or mastering used here) but, somehow, this one turned out pretty much just right. Feel free to disagree. Now sit back and get ready to trip extremely far out. If you manage to return, let me know how that trip was...
Description : Got some spare time finally...just started on some random ideas basically (lets say kygo meets alan walker). A blend of dubstep,edm,downbeat,tropical etc.
It's still a work in progress, so i would appreciate your honest inputs. Thanks to all those whose loops I have used in here, sorry I don't have time to search them out.
Edit-added some more filthy sounds from my previous tracks and gave it some ending. Advice will be helpful.
is it you singin in this one.
loved it bro!
