News: It’s been about 3 months. I’ve written a new song which can be heard below. Pelting hamsters with eggplants is the new Tamagotchi.
latest tune. a day’s work. recorded with built-in Macbook mic. no MIDI controller. frustrating, but it would have been more so not to create something today.
PS It sounds WAY better with headphones.
Hi everyone. This will be my last upload for a while. I am moving to San Francisco to study counseling psychology. That doesn’t mean I’m giving up on “moriddim.” It’s just going on hold for a bit until I am grounded and up for some more writing.
This track was produced for my very good friend. She’s made my transition so enjoyable and visceral that I had to put all those feelings into something creative. I chose the relatively obscure Coldplay track “See You Soon,” for its obvious message and also because of it’s beautiful melody & lyrics.
Playback availabe below this post.
Coldplay - See You Soon (moriddim’s “no really, i will” mix)
Here’s a small bit of an unfinished gem. I collaborated with a friend a while back and we came up with this club-ish yet intelligent work. I would later adapt the vocals into the song I submitted for the Punisher OST competition.
moriddim v Panteaze
Today’s listen is an old interlude I put together last year. It’s got a bit of Nine Inch Nails to it (which I’m proud to say) and even has a bit of a Linkin Park quality to it (which I’m not proud to say). It’s spooky. It’s onto you. Hide your children.
Hip-Hap (interlude)
Propellerhead FTW
I was chosen to be a beta tester for Propellerhead’s new “Record” software which is actually really cool. I never thought I’d find so much utility within one program. Propellerhead sticks to what they do best and that’s making your home recording/mixing experience feel like a hi-quality studio substitute.
By the way, this track is mental. I’m not well.
About me
Synthetic. Dark. Moving. Vibrant. All of these words pertain to the music of moriddim. He combines influences from popular 80's artists like Depeche Mode and Gary Numan with newer beat crafters like the Crystal Method and Four Tet. moriddim also borrows from the cryptic stream-of-consciousness style lyrics of bands like Underworld and Soul Coughing with delivery characteristic of vocalists like Pete Yorn and Beck. Multiple comparisons will spring to mind upon listening, but listeners will find themselves having a hard time finding music that fits just as well on the dancefloor as it does in the living room. Enjoy.
