FM Era by Oreiko x Shye
NYS#JENS-01
This is the first project of mine i remember being quite good. Shye carried a lot of the goofy and dumb ideas i had. Originally this was planned as a project, where i sampled error sounds (from different consoles or crashing games), that i wanted to make myself. After making an ambient piece (it was like a few minutes long i dont remember exactly), i didn't know what to do next, so i asked Shye (who made the cover art for ICONIC. and made the transitions on that EP) if she wanted to collab with me. She said yes and pretty quickly a longer music piece was made, but then nothing really happened for a few months, cuz either of us didn't have ideas how to continue the piece. At the end out of almost nowhere, i got some ideas in December 2019, when i was over at my mom's place. So from that point onwards the project was finalized. It was intended to be released on January 1st 2020 (mostly cuz i didn't know if i would release something in 2020... a thought that proved to be wrong, also i knew that people on RYM would be looking more for obscure releases on january 1st), but Shye insisted that she didn't want to release it in 2020, so it was released on december 31st.
Here you can still hear the quite basic sampling of mine and the general goofiness of what i sampled, because i abandoned the original idea fairly quickly after the first sketch. So there is also slowed down AJR and Rem Lezar in here, because i found that stuff funny. Regardless of that, i still think it has some charm to it.
Original Description:
"Collaborative EP recorded throughout most of the second half of 2019.
Thank you so much to shye for sticking with me on this project and helping making it sound cooler.
Also thank you for everyone who helped me through rough times that i had this year and also to everyone i sampled on this thing.
Everyone have a nice new years eve and a really good 2020."
