Tsukiji Dreaming

Hi all,

Today I’m releasing my new album called ‘Tsukiji Dreaming’.

The main synths / drum machines I used on these recordings are: Model D, Prophet 6, PERfourMER MKII, DRM1 MKII and Tanzbar Lite. Also making a couple of appearances is my recently acquired SH-101 (yah!). Reverb from OTO BAM and delay by Source Audio Nemesis. Sequenced on MPC Ren and Cirklon :slight_smile:

Some of the influences on this record are: Low, My Bloody Valentine, Air and Tycho … something like slowsynthcore?!

Hope you can have a listen and spread the word!

Anyone who skipped this one is missing out.

Very chilled and introspective sounds here. Very nice to listen to in a quiet room with headphones. Sound quality and design is great. Everything seems like you put a lot of thought and care into it and it shows. Very mellow. I like how the simple drums don’t get in the way of the synths on these songs. Anything more and it might distract from the true stars - melodies and pads. Top notch.

Yeah, song 2 “Ready or not?” is very nice. What lush chord sounds. Great progression and sound design. Could listen to this on repeat for quite a while.

Song 3 is very cinematic. Gets the imagination going. The hats/cymbals work great in contrasting against the pads. Fantastic melody. The elements work really well together. Nothing feels out of place.

Song 4 is very simple yet those synth sounds are spot on. So rich and deep. Enjoyed very much.

Song 5 “Tundra”. Nice little recurring melodic parts here. Great “meshing” of different sounds into one cohesive line.

Song 6 “Road trip” The guitar threw me, lol. :relaxed: Nice tune though.

Song 7 “Falling to you”. I like the contrast between the gritty pads and nice soft swells of synths. Wraps up the album nicely.

Thanks bwax, what a very lovely and considered comment! It’s so nice to hear others’ views of my tracks. I agree that my music is of the quiet headphone variety :slight_smile:

Just listened on my iMac, but definitely gonna check this out on the main living room stereo tomorrow. The sounds are quality and the compositions are nicely understated. Very nice!
