    This all started during the 1st covid lockdown with the track ‘Uji’. I love listening to electronic music but had never tried to create any of my own, so I decided to give it a go. I had become really tired of trying to create music that I though other people would like to listen to, so I let go and gave myself permission to just go with it and create for the sake of creating. It was a really liberating experience. Over the course of the past 2 years I have kept on starting a new track, getting really into it and then getting distracted and starting a new one... again and again. As such I have dozens of unfinished pieces. So at the beginning of this year I tried to finish some of them to put out an album. It became really apparent that there is quite a divide in genres of music and it really didn’t all fit together, so I have decided to put out several smaller EP’s instead. The first one is heavily electronic based. I did use a few drum samples, however tried to create most of the percussion myself using a Lumen electronic handpan as my midi controller. I am really grateful to Spitfire Audio for their incredible LABS plugins and BBC Symphony orchestra suite that I relied heavily on in many of the tracks.
    I still have a lot to learn. The professional producers among you will, I’m sure, cringe at many moments of this - I really have just relied on my own instincts - but to be honest I’m not really that bothered. I’ve got it to where I can at the moment by myself, and I’m sure as time goes on I will improve. At the moment I just want to put this out there so that I have some sort of closure and can move onto working on some of my other stuff that is only half finished. These tracks are not mastered, however if there is any interest in them then I will consider doing so.
    I hope you enjoy it.
