๐ฆArtist Spotlight - Humanizm (Canberra, ACT)๐ฆ
Some producers stay neatly in the pocket.
Humanizm sits in the rhythm, then tears a hole through it. Classic techno repetition at the core, pushed through warped sound design and thick, driving energy.Thereโs love for the old-school pulse: the repetition, the tension, the roll- but the production leans forward, not back.
Textures get weird.
Drums stay heavy.
The groove always wins.
Start up sequence.
Circuits warming, signal forming.
This one sinks deep into the swamp.
New Humanizm soon on Mindscape Records

Believe it or not, this dnb is a breakdown in my new Humanizm psytechno track 'Cryptobionic' ๐ณ
It is the last of 4 tracks for my next EP release with @mindscaperecords ! ๐ฅ ๐ฅณ ๐
This isn't the only surprise in the track, there's a cheeky house section that was a first for me :)

Feels strange to admit now, but I used to always feel like a musical imposter... I played trumpet for a couple of years in primary school, but that's it. I started producing electronic music after high school, with no music theory and no technical knowledge and still loved doing it...but a nagging voice in me was asking 'how can you write good music with no musical skills?' It always seemed too late. That I should have learnt an instrument when I was young and my brain was juicy. Heaps of trial and error and thousands of hours of work later, I finally realised its never too late. At 30 I started getting lessons from my local music school. It was humbling and sort of embarrassing to be such a novice...but the little victories have been so fulfilling. My teacher Sheila was the perfect balance of tough but fair. She never sugar coated my progress, and I had to earn her approval. I'm not the greatest pianist in the world, and aim still (very) slowly working my way through Alfred's Piano Volume 1 (on my own now). Just being able to sit down and play a bunch of songs is such a joy and something I'm proud of, and its cool knowing that some music theory has oozed into my own music. Here's one my favourites:
Greensleeves - ice cream vibes?
Special appearance by my beautiful dog Dolly and her little boyfriend Basil ๐ ๐

Lots happening in the studio HQ:
I've realised how good a mechanical keyboard is! Ive been living a lie! ๐
I had to pull out the @sonarworks calibration mic to re-map the room after adding in some swish acoustic panels with timber slats ๐ฎ
Its starting to look like 'mastering level' business ๐!
Super sleazy teasey of my unreleased new Humanizm track 'The Mcgurk Effect' (inspo explainer coming soon) ๐ wait till you hear the drop!
Btw the room sounds amazing now. I have to remind myself how much of a treat it is to have my own space like this ๐

Ok this was a weird project ๐
I converted an old store room under my house into a meditation/ vocal booth (also can be a scream/ panic room ๐)
The walls are acoustic panels and the ceiling is a floating concrete slab so its cool and quiet in there. I've kept one of the air vents and fitted it with comfy lights and its a cosy little place โจ๏ธ โบ๏ธ
I might do something with the ceiling but I actually really like the raw concrete ๐
Really happy with how it turned out!
Another taste test of some new music ๐ถ bound to be released by @mindscaperecords in the future ๐ฅ
