Story behind the music:

For this track, I wanted to make a synth tune that felt like flying through the clouds. The main melody was something I played around with on my Novation Circuit, while chilling at a coffee shop. I ended up with this airy, uplifting, ambient tune that I kind of filed away for later.

Another day I was trying out doing some 303 bass lines, I thought to give it a try to try sliding it underneath the flying through the clouds tune. I felt like it needed an old school, raw groove with percussion, so I dusted off my old MC-303 and jammed out the drums, trying to go for an old school, Detroit style vibe.

Celestial got it’s debut when I submitted it to Splitwire, a friend’s start up radio show for new music from off beat artists and he included it in the lineup.

In the end, I honestly don’t know how to classify this track. It was one of those things where I just let the music making take me in a direction and it turned into this acid techno track with an ambient twist. It’s also been told to me that this track sounds more towards Italo Disco with Acid House included, making it an Italo Acid track. Either way, let me know where you think this track fits in the realm of genres.

Celestial was made with a Novation Circuit, Cyclone Analogic TT-303, and Roland MC-303.
