Allegory 2 [Green] – 3rd July 2020

Posted on 26th June 2020 in Releases

On the second Allegory EP, we deliver three tracks following on from where Allegory 1 [Red] started, going more minimal and returning to the source; the groove.

“If you could throw your arms around cold concrete and steel, then this would be the music to play during such an embrace. There’s a beauty in brutality and sometimes, the eyes and ears don’t immediately understand it. Those who understand, will, while others continue to know the price of everything and the value of nothing.”

Our Patreon supporters will get this EP early and for free, so if you’d like to join, find out more at:

Sample Pack 05: Drones (Vol. 1)

Posted on 19th June 2020 in Patreon, Studio & Production

Drones are a simple concept, to reduce a world of complex sounds to their core elements. This pack features 90 sustained, loopable samples, all with subtle movement throughout. Useable as single instruments, deep background elements or unique minimalist pieces to be played in their own right.

This release contains two different packages: 24-bit WAV audio samples (2.1GB!) for use in any compatible music production software and a collection of Ableton Live Instrument Racks (1.1GB).

It’s currently available exclusively for our Patreon supporters, so if you’d like to join, you can find the details at:

Kärntnertor Remix Project

Posted on 10th June 2020 in Patreon, Studio & Production

People do regularly ask how we make stuff, so for our supporters on Patreon, we’ve provided an Ableton Live Pack (.alp) and 24-bit stems (.zip) for our track “Kärntnertor”, taken from the “Allegory 1 [Red]” EP.

This should give you an idea of how it’s made and what’s actually happening to create the mix. The track runs at 123bpm, which is fairly sedate compared to a lot of techno at the moment, but it’s all centred around that big filthy bass groove, so the speed isn’t all that important.

We’ve simplified things slightly by swapping custom VSTs for stock Ableton plugins and flattening parts where necessary and for those working with other DAW software, we’ve provided a separate download containing the bus stems as 24bit WAV files.

To get this and loads more exclusive stuff, you can join for the price of a decent beer:
