🎶 Huge Milestone Alert! 🎶

Super excited to share that Shane, my collab with @powerrobmusic , just got aired on @bbcintroducing by @jerichokeys ! Not only did the track hit the airwaves, but it’s also been added to the BBC's new Orbit music discovery pilot, designed to help people find fresh, cutting-edge music.

This is the second track of mine @bbc has featured, with my first being "Hypersleep", a fan favorite collaboration between @bendinggrid and @teyaflow . Huge thanks to BBC Introducing for the support and to the phenomenal Power Rob for the fantastic teamwork that got us here. Here’s to many more spins! 🙏

What do you think the significance is of the repetitive, hypnotic "running in a loop" scene from "2001: A Space Odyssey," and how does it contribute to the overall theme or message of the film?

Pre-Order Parallax NOW on Bandcamp and get 3 songs early.

Some of you may have seen my story where I explained what happened to all of my synthesizers. I sold all of them to help fund my PARALLAX double album (link in bio). I really went all out and gave it everything I've got, so give it a listen this May and enjoy the experience. Don't forget to share your favorite songs and tag me! I'd love to know which songs fill the RAD meter for you.
😎🤘

I decided to make the best of the current "synth shortage" situation and revamp my studio setup with a new desk and clean workspace. Now I can make music, mix, and master either sitting or standing. My new setup is shown in this video. I just need to grab a small midi controller when I'm able to and continue to make more cool tunes.

I was thinking about grabbing an arturia minilab or keystep to jam out on because piano keys are much more conductive for my production than drawing notes in a DAW. I mean, I can do it either way, but keys are more fun! I totally have plenty of VST's to keep things going until I can get some hardware synths on deck again. The Jupiter XM looks pretty cool. I like how it has built-in speakers and its portability. I'd be able to make melodies anywhere with that thing. It could also double as a midi controller. Those are my thoughts on next steps.

Transmissions (feat. Kero) “Original Song”

The song was inspired by the sci-fi film Sunshine. It’s a tale of two individuals facing insurmountable odds together, embracing the present moment, their bond, and the duality of life and death. Their journey seems to transcend the immediate and touches upon cosmic themes, implying that their bond or story is grander than the immediate challenges they face.

Music by Bending Grid. Lyrics by Kero. Vocals by Kero.

Lost In Space(feat. Violet Fears) “Original Song”

The song evokes emotions of someone feeling lost and adrift, metaphorically “in space”, yearning for a sense of belonging and direction. The space and cosmic references enhance the vastness and profoundness of these feelings. It is a poignant exploration of human emotions, existential questions, and the universal desire for connection and belonging.

Music by Bending Grid. Lyrics by Bending Grid and Andrew O’Halloran. Vocals by Violet Fears.

Vampires (feat. Teya Flow) “Cover Song”

The song meditates on the fleeting nature of human interactions, the moments of connection amidst isolation, and the existential journey from birth to death. The narrative emphasizes both the transitory moments of beauty and connection and the overarching solitude and impermanence of existence.

Music by The Midnight. Cover music by Bending Grid. Lyrics by The Midnight. Vocals by Teya Flow.
