matt sokol - the art factory (DREAM BEATS // Single // Jan 2018)

in #dsound7 years ago




NEW SONG Y’ALL!!! This may be my finest work. You do not want to miss this, it’s a brain massage and a half, here’s the fancy official song bio:

Safari through Matt Sokol’s head, a place where ideas split infinitely across the fabric of space. You can hear the history of music echoing within its walls - from Interstellar Space to The Money Store and everywhere between.

In Matt’s Art Factory, melodic tones bend and warp across the soundscape. They dance esper-like through the sonic fog as the drum kit ascends to heaven and the keyboard tries to hold the band together.

Warning: Minor risk of experiencing ego death for 10,000 contiguous years upon first listen.


It’s been a while since I used DSound, but since this and DTube are getting so much better I will start using them more.

Thanks Steemit and I hope you love the song.

Damn matt. This is legit dude! Via bit brigade I end up at way -way- many chiptune related events and I've developed a bit of a love hate with the sound pallette, so you should take it as a doubly legit compliment that I really really enjoyed this. Great massaging in the midrange to get all the square chippy sounds living together and forward in the same space. Super slick man. Feel like we come from the same vaguely vgm-math-but-not-a-cliche headspace on our electronic ventures.

You should be consistently releasing stuff, man! Here's hoping @dsound throws you (and me) some love!

Thank you!! Chiptune can be fun but I am with you, the aesthetic is pretty limited, there's only so much time I can spend listening to it. I think it's more of a coincidence right now that I am making these super chippy sounds and art haha. Glad you enjoyed it dude!!!

Like you said I should be consistently releasing stuff, my main goal in 2018 is to release at least one song per month so we will see how that goes.

What a tune, love the progression and all the change-ups. Super cool intense moment closer to the end and then a boss breakdown. Great way to put it as "stream of consciousness", I can see that, yet it's still a very complete little story being told. And yea, the sound design on it is lush. Really enjoyed it, you made it your own for sure :)

Awesome!! Thank you for listening so closely. That intense boss breakdown at the end was enough to scare away a few blogs from covering this track haha, I'm lucky that YES/NO BLOG ended up being brave enough to roll with it.

cheers @deeptechhouse

Oh shucks :( Good on YES/NO blog! Well one hell of a more reason to continue building the music community on here so people will eventually come here for all their freshest tunes and creativest artists. One can dream :)

Just checked it out again on better headphones and loving all the little intricacies, especially when the arp goes lower, and the bassline comes in, jeez, like the whole mood switch just has a whole next level impression :)

What makes it cool is that it's very unusual to what I usually listen to music, and breaking away from genres is what keeps things fresh :)

:-) thanks again!!!

The production on this is hella clean! Sounds great dude. I like the switch up at the end a lot as well.

Thanks Dude! I appreciate that, still trying to up my production game as hard as I can, theres so much to learn

a wired sound! The Art Factory. i like it.

this should be the song artwork hah

hah yeah but then people would think it would sound like some kind of velvet underground esque band. your pixels on the art you chose really forshadow the song, which i still wasnt expecting ,

This is great man, I really dig it.

Much appreciated Dagda, good to hear from you my dude

You're welcome man. And since winter is nearly over and I'm coming out of hibernation hopefully you'll be hearing from me a lot more, haha.

Yes!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 many new people are joining our weird music corner of steem lately... Dare I say it, the weirdos might take over at this rate hah

Haha, excellent.

LOL.... wow, love it except the sudden ending - I was expecting more. Love the description too!

Great! Ya sorry to surprise you with the sudden ending, this was definitely a "stream of consciousness" kind of song lol

Good post
