Your track "Cybernetics" is honestly really good and will likely be on repeat for some time going forward. Reminds me a little bit of Lemon Jelly.

Love it too, will be a great track for night time riding in the city

My primary audio-related hobby is making sound effects libraries for video game developers but when time allows I make weird electronic music.

This release used modular synths, an Octatrack, Ableton Live, acoustic drums, and tons of soft synths.

Two accounts: Molydenum is my more mainstream stuff.

More personal, experimental stuff is under my name. https://open.spotify.com/album/6lQ9JWrD8tt8iP4hI6Q5eO?si=y5b...

EDIT: YALL ARE MY TARGET AUDIENCE!

Wow it's great to see so many HNers making music out there, looks like my programming playlist is about to get some much needed fresh content. I've been sitting on a pile of half-finished projects I've been meaning to get around to completing for ages, throwing a few of them out there to hold myself accountable to follow through: https://soundcloud.com/guhcci/sonder https://soundcloud.com/guhcci/sleepwalking/s-dy4AaQ…

Love it! Hope I get to hear it in the club / festival one day! This is just straight dancing https://soundcloud.com/guhcci/sonder This one melts :) Love the 80s style with the deep background https://soundcloud.com/guhcci/alight-demo/s-tgQ0GjLwC3Y ^ this one also distantly reminded me Principles of Geometry (Meanstream album), although, I would imagine this may be only me

Aw thanks, appreciate the kind words! It would be a dream come true to perform onstage someday, but for now I'm just counting down the days until we can bring back live music again :)

I make ambient music. I haven't released anything in a while, but am getting back on the music production train.

Here is the only real collection of songs I ever put out: https://helenave.bandcamp.com/album/stuff-things

Here's an old song of mine. My main claim to fame as a songwriter is that before Suzanne Vega became famous, I was in a weekly songwriter's workshop that she was involved with (and co-founded); she liked this song when I presented it during one of those Monday night workshops at the Cornelia Street Cafe in Greenwich Village.

I don't write too much, but I improvise on piano and sing.

I also have an album out wherever you happen to listen:

I love the mix of the ambience and the narrator. Those PSAs and old narrations really add an interesting dimension to it. Question, where do you find those voice samples?

I did once, a few years ago. In a procrastination-fueled frenzy I banged out a harsh noise album in a single sitting. It's still kind of a blur.

There's a short film that goes along with it, but that'll probably stay in my head.
