My friends! It’s my birthday tomorrow so I had a little extra fun with this week’s tune. I took a few cues from modern hip-hop, went MASSIVE with the kick drum and created one of the most fun tracks on the site so far. It’s a big old hiphop beat, full of energy, full of…

This one is for my Patreon members! A little while ago I did a poll on my Patreon page asking what sort of music my patrons wanted most for my next upload. Somewhat to my surprise, they picked “dancey synthesizers”! So, here is my effort! Inspired by good old classic analog synthesizers, here’s a dancey…

Sometimes to get myself to start recording when I’m having a little writers’ block, I cut loose and try something I would never normally do… That’s how this track started. I played the ridiculous four-on-the-floor beat that the song starts with and then I couldn’t stop myself. Layer after layer of weird synths and risers…

I found this piano movement and something about the incessant half tone repetitive melody on the piano reminded me of Edgar Allan Poe and poem “The Raven”. The piano here is echoing the line “Tapping at my chamber door – only this and nothing more…” It’s enough to drive you mad, but if you’re looking…

I’m going to be honest here, this one is just ridiculous. I’ve never been into the club/rave/dance party scene, I know next to nothing about the culture. However, sometimes it helps with writers block to try out a genre you are completely unfamiliar with. I usually just keep these little exercises to myself, but I…

Here’s a track that I recorded in January of 2020. It was born out the synth that you first hear, I was playing with matching that sound of older retro digital synths I’d been hearing in indie videogames. Once I stumbled onto the guitar melody that comes into support, I knew there was a bit…

This track was recorded as part of our “Sleep Music Against Abuse” fundraiser in 2017. That project was able to raise over $700 in donations to a local women’s shelter. Thank you to everyone who took part! Now that Sounds Like An Earful is supported by Patreon, I’m really excited to be able to release…

I won’t lie, this track was inspired by the movie “Trainspotting”. That UK synth nostalgia got to me after rewatching the movie recently and I had to sit down and create my own. Hopefully this track can help set a similar mood to one of your projects! Great for: Underscoring a podcast Background to the…
