Reconnecting, is an electronic song, that is full of lush and rich tones from analog vintage synths. It was also recorded to sound from its own era, to preserve the old analog character it was recorded on high quality preamps, from a SoundCraft LX7 mixer, and placed through DA-88s, and other high-quality gear, to have excellent audio qualities.

Reconnecting, a track off of the depression themed album, Looking for the Sunshine, is a reminder, that once the depression passes, to reconnect with that which was once lost.

In my deepest tales, I was once at a point, where I felt very broken, and frankly, that I would never function again normal, that I had even lost my capability to love, or be loved, and that I was washed up and broken. Through a series of events, and encounters with God, I was able to rectify this frame of mind, and return to a life, where I experienced that I was not broken, and that I could be revived, and brought back to life, back to normal, back to functioning, and enjoying, and taking pleasure in the things around me.

My friends, turn arounds, are always possible, and at the point, where you believe that is possible for your life, that is the point at which you will start to see the possibility manifest before your eyes, and you yourself will change with words, that you may not even have realized or imagined in the place that you are now. If you believe you can be brought back to life, as I was, than it is certainly possible for you as well. If your desire is to experience that, then all that is needed to start that journey for you, will begin to emerge before your eyes, and then you can reconnect to the joy and happiness and pleasure, that you have not had access to all this time.

August 5, 2015Eulogy, Musicanalog, change, edm, electronic, eulogy, intention, juno106, ponder, remembrance, tr909, vintagewp_onitod

Trustworthy, is an electronic analog composition, which was composed using many of the loved and popular vintage synths. It features tr-909, juno-106, juno-60, juno-6, mks10, mks30, mks50, mks70, mks80, emu ultraproteus, emu morpheus, tr-707, tr-626, kawai k11, and more.

Trustworthy, was one of my character traits, that I wanted to be remembered by. As Eulogy was an album, of things to be remembered by, so the song tracks contain all of those traits, that I wanted to have prominently in my life, and as a result, have aligned my life to posses those traits, and head in that direction.

Its important to remember, that when you discover in life that you want to make a change in direction, that you do so step by step. You can only change so much a day, sometimes only one habit at a time. As you go, you build up one trait, or habit, one by one, and soon afterwards, you have made great changes in your life.

Onitod – Eternal Love [ Album: Analog Movements ]

August 5, 2015Analog Movements, Musicanalog, edm, electronic, eternal, eternal love, juno106, juno6, jupiter8, love, mks10, mks20, mks70, mks80, synth, tr909, vintagewp_onitod

Eternal Love, is a song about my love and passion for electronic music, and how I love to revive the sounds, of the vintage synths.

Vintage synths, were not so much just transistors and circuits, but the way they interacted, is close to how a guitarist falls in love, with the acoustics of their guitar, or of their tube amp. The synths, of the olden age, they interacted, they played, they had a feeling, a character, a way about them, and to mix those feelings are character together, you get a sense of how they were born, of the feelings the designs had, or could not have every imagined.

Eternal love, also speaks about God’s love to each one of us. If we so desired, each one of us, could have a personal and direct relationship with God, and even receive guidance, direction, and comfort, many times over in our lives. So it is for this reason as well, that I named this song Eternal Love, to remind me of that connection, that leads me and guides me.

A Swan Dances in the Rain, is an exclusive melodic song, in that it focuses on themes, and rounds, much like a classical piece. The construction, is melodic, and relaxing, soothing to the soul.

The album was written with the struggle of depression in mind. For those who do struggle, it is a reminder that like a swan that dances in the rain, there is always something more fascinating that the mind can focus on, a perfect distraction, if you will, and the swan dancing in the rain, is a symbol of the beauty that is missed, and lost, when depression is allowed to run free, and trample of your enjoyment, and pleasure of living on this earth. When you find yourself pending to the side of depression, have a hint to remember all that will be lost, the beauty that will be missed, and all the joy, that has to be passed up, to stay focused on depression.
