The Way Around (2012)

Today I share with you a release from a long time ago, which somehow relates to my previous post in that manner. 2012 was a year of exponential musical transformation for me. Two weeks ago, I shared "A Place to Be Different" from that year, and today I'm sharing "The Way Around."

This one was part of an EP that was uploaded to YouTube by a small group of people who operated under the label name MassiveX (or something of that manner — I don't remember precisely).

Here you can sta...

A Place to Be Different (2012)

Continuing the conversation I had with Dan in the chat here, I thought I'd share with you today this thing from 2012. This is one of the earliest things I made in an attempt to create something longer and a bit more structured. During that period of time, my intentions regarding music creation were evolving quite a bit, and it started to take a more prominent position in my life.

'A Place to Be Different' is one of the first results from that transition. I remember pretty vividly the cr...

Variations & Transformations

The 'Within' Recycle Bin

Here are some ideas that were pushed to the end of the Within project for a possible future use. Some of them were made as actual sections that filled the gap between two other sections, some were ideas for full Within movements that didn’t take a full shape in the end, and some were just some experimentations with the material. These ideas are much more raw and less polished, as they didn’t go through the same touches as the ones that ended up in Within.

LAJ Outtake - Reflexes 70 and Old Artwork

With my recent decision to re-upload some older releases such as my first album (Escape to Antesia), some singles, and the Valse EP (2014), I thought today I’d share with you an outtake from Long Awaited Journey. This sketch was made in September 2017 as one of the attempts to create the final piece that later became Halpfire Harmonies.

In addition, the artwork you see here was the first iteration of the final art, as it was later changed, as you ca...

Sketches from Last Week

"Everybody Knows" is an attempt to create a groove in 5/4, inspired by this song. I find the feeling of "drag" caused by the groove in this time signature interesting. It reminded me a bit of some South American native rhythms, where there's a feeling of constant tempo changes in every bar of the groove, caused only by the position of the hits. In this case, thoug...

Where Ideas Run Around

Some of you might remember that a long time ago, I posted Goya's "Black Paintings" on Instagram without further explanation.

I was doing so while I attempted to "solve" the place that later became "Crimson Summit" in "Lands of Delight". For some time, I was exploring a direction that led to five “dark projects”, I called them "uno dark" to "cinco dark". Each was a variation, yet a new attempt from scratch to approach the same feeling. I looked to the "...
