Lost in Atlantis

Image
  Lost in Atlantis is my very first album that I've released with mebo and I think it's a massive achievement that we managed to create 9 brand new tracks from scratch. After the massive success of the Supernova Love EP we decided we wanted to get to work something brand new and there were a lot of demos to choose from. Mebo spent about two weeks coming up with about 20 demos or so and we picked 8 out of these out and turned them into proper songs. Baby Girl, Phase Me (Only God Can Save Me), Snow (Never Trust Ur Mind), Deepest Lie, Stars (Live Along), Ooh (Atlantis) all were very easy songs to pick out as great ones for an album. Because we wanted to go over the 31 minute mark we also picked out wired and inside (we actually failed as the album is 29 minutes 53 seconds) . Allegory was actually the 1st version of deepest lie but then we went with the 2nd version. I did a lot of messing about with synths on allegory which is why I got a songwriter and a performer credit on the so...

Pressure City (ft. Dan Menard)

  Spotify Apple Music:   Background : I was trying to get into writing music for video games and I came up with a bunch of songs as a showcase of my writing abilities. The songs included Which Way Now, Clockshop, Ferry Good and Pressure City. It was always done in a rock style but originally it sounded a lot denser. After I found not much luck and after I quickly worked out that the game music industry was so completely saturated I gave up exploring that route entirely. I was trying to find collaborations like normal when I came across Dan Menard who was doing some transformers covers. The exact logic of why I thought this song would be a good fit for him is probably because it has some very nice guitar patterns which weren't overly complicated. Since I can't really play or record instruments very well I outsourced the work all the way to the other side of the world in order to make it more interesting. Mr Menard has since told me that he would love to work with me again at so...

The Night Is More Alive

The Night Is More Alive - Frequency Creature ft. Leasi Spotify Apple Music Summary: This is a massive summer anthem that I've been waiting to release so long that it's now autumn. Leasi and I were doing something for a vincent van gogh themed project and we tried to maximise out the gogh-ness as much as possible, but it's really just a typical dance track with a lot of references to him laid on top. The song started with my very thick bassline that can be heard at the start and, like normal, it was just a matter of building the song up with the vocals. There weren't really any issues with the song so that was quite good, technical or due to personality conflicts. It's also my first official release but really it's no different from "don't choose this road" as it was produced in the same kind of time along with "wash machine", as in we had the exact same role in both of the songs.  Lyrics: It's so dark but the right vibe  She's my ...

Supernova Love EP

Summary Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/2Kn14KfS2oEScfydKdwaB3?si=LX-4usYwRaOdRDmWneeoog Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/meboarchmeds/mebo-frequency-creature Hyperfollow:  https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/meboandfrequencycreature/supernova-love   I am very excited to share my first EP with you called 'Supernova Love' which was written by Saudi Arabian artist Mebo and produced by myself. I met Mebo in November last year after hearing his second album 'Stuck on the ground' we tried experimenting and seeing whether we could work together. We gave up and I didn't really hear from Mebo again until July when we considered working together again. Mebo made a huge number of demos for the EP but I picked out a couple that I liked and started working on. At this point I have to say the original plan was a full album but I think I found producing very stressful so I decided to reduce it down to 6 tracks (and then finally down to 5). The main problem we found quite...

Don't Choose This Road (feat. Frequency Creature by Leasi)

Image
  Summary: This is my first song that I've released on all major platforms with the rapper Leasi. I had always wanted to try and make a punk style song and so did Leasi. I made a 1 minute demo of a song idea... leasi disliked it. I did a couple more versions but we eventually scrapped it. I remembered reading about how in a lot of punk music you see shapes being shifted up and down the guitar fretboard. Since I don't play guitar I created the chords to the intro of "Don't Choose This Road" in FL studio which is where the song really comes from. After a lot of tweaking and letting Leasi master the track we came up with this: Listen on Spotify Listen on Soundcloud Lyrics: "I remember dreaming all night about you  But this night I realized I was a fool  You never cared about me  You are cruel and I’m not cool  But you're worthless you won’t live long  You have no purpose only this song  I was so nervous when I talked one on one  You're not a person y...
