🎶 Welcome Beautiful People —
My new album just dropped, Let’s Synthwave & Chill
It's a uplifting mix of electronic chillstep and melodic orchestral vibes. A perfect instrumental backdrop for driving, focusing, or relaxing. Which also is a really special thing that stands out to me about Synth & Chill—it doesn't try to take me away elsewhere, instead it creates a kind of space for me right here, it makes space for me right where I'm at.
Do you like what you hear? You wanna support my music? It’s free, it's fast, and it makes a huge difference to me. Look to the top left for the White Rabbit. That's me (sort of, haha) Ok next to the white rabbit, there's the FOLLOW button. Tap Follow and you done me solid, thank you! I touch my heart to you and I hope you feel it and see me.
🐣 Easter Eggs - BTW all tracks are tuned to healing frequencies. And as a geek, I looooove the mathematical challenge of figuring out how to calculate and create the sound waves for people of healing vibrations, if you've heard of them. I hoped to see that they'd just have a positive effect on people. In this album, I tuned each track to ensure that the Root frequency of each song corresponds with a specific Universal restoration/healing frequency. For example, "Air" (01) is tuned to 285Hz, regarded for Healing Tissue and Energy Balancing. Let me know if you hear it or not, I want to know: contactthomas@unity303.com

Been writing music for 30+ years. But been writing music with AI assistance for 3+ months.
Never before was I able to write this amount of exceedingly amazing quality music, week after week, without cool-off periods, without much burnout. There is too much to talk about to describe, you would not want to read it all. I have to keep it brief enough to keep you interested in reading this.
I get to stay focused on the creative processes, rather than getting stuck on the many repetitive tasks of music-making, such as recording, learning new software, instruments, so on. There is still a lot of work that must be put in. But instead of taking years and a team, it can be done solo in months. What you're hearing is the best ~18 instrumentals out of hundreds for me to decide from. It is a beautiful thing. (Then there is the lyrical content, which we won't even get into yet.)
🎧 My Mashups and Remixes (40+ Tracks)
Wow, it's insane looking back a discography spanning 25 years remixes, spanning so many EDM genres.
I began remixing back in the 2000s. I placed in college remix competitions with labels like Sony Music. Computers just were starting to get powerful enough to run multiple software synthesizers and vocoders. We used to have to get ridiculously lucky to find clean Acapella Vocals, until the late 2010's, when iZotope came out with the ultimate gamechanger: Vocal Stem Isolation. 0-Day-Acapellas! (Now in 2024, all the new DAW's do this now and we're all spoiled rotten, lol) But back then, every #NewMusicFriday, I'd listen to Spotify for the best song I'd never heard, and try to remix it. If I was lucky, I'd might have a release on the same day a song was officially radio released. (This is how I found Morgan Wallen and started mashing up Country with Chillstep, for example) Such magical days.
After my marriage fell apart, and I began to claw out of my depression, I slowly began to more and more write about my pain. I did this in my youth, I wrote music and channeled something I thougth was very ugly and unbelievably painful into something that somehow I could turn into something unbelievably beautiful. So having grown up with trauma and so much denial and shame, I was in a place of unprocessed pain about things, I naturally slipped into process with music again.
The music I've been working on gives me a way to look at all the difficult dreams that have not come true that have not come true, that have been way to hard to face without totally just breaking down. They're a more familiar way of journaling to me, than actual journaling, and they offer me healing that I'm more familiar with. The remixing was fun, that nourished me creatively, but the lyric-writing, that gave me detail to the emotions with surgical precision and access to events. And with like the safety of the music comes this compassionate setting for me. Kind of like a swaddling of the child self that never fully got that? So now it was giving myself this safe haven to have real, authentic, difficult feelings to write about and be so deeply connected to this river of water that kept falling from the sky.
Youtube is cool and I enjoyed making lyrics videos but it does take a lot of time. And I'm not very good at using the Youtube (video) platform to access the fanbase of Synthwave-heads who loooove synthwave who are dying to listen to the kind of music I'm releasing, so I decided to move back over to Soundcloud (where I *have* been getting a lot of good success connecting with fans. And with the release of Synthwave&Chill, I've started to reshift concentration back to Soundcloud (where you know, people are looking for music, not videos to watch), and will probably update Youtube once a month (4-at-a-time). And will be updating Soundcloud regularly.
Thank you for reading. I don't often share so vulnerably like this on such a public space, so I am really am putting myself out here and putting myself at risk revealing myself as a target. I may take this down if this gets too much of the wrong kind of attention. I appreciate you taking special care of what I'm sharing with you.
Bit so far, this has been such a wonderful journey of healing and coming back to me. Thanks so much for baring witness to this voyage. I would love to hear from you.
