Hvdson

It’s been 2 years since this project has been released (11/22/2019) but I didn’t get a proper chance to fully push it out (RIP pandemic) - this new paradigm and wave of music NFTs seems like the perfect opportunity to push this project out again.

With Catalog being at the forefront of 1/1 canonical music NFTs and my involvement as one of the founding core engineers, it makes sense to post on Catalog as this is what I am capable of doing entirely myself as an auteur of music.

I’ve played, composed, recorded, wrote, produced, mixed and mastered music my whole life and this is the first project that I’ve been satisfied enough with to call my magnum opus.

This was the first full project I've released as Hvdson being a masked alias back in 2019 - the genesis project. I've always had a vision of making Hvdson this artist that everyone could feel like they were a part of so I tried my best to keep Hvdson a blank slate and make the narrative of a simulation of the persona/ego as inspired by the psychology of Carl Jung's id, ego and super-ego.

I guess the closest thing to what i'm thinking of is what Brud is doing with (Lil) Miquela and the already well known digital persona of Hatsune Miku, but a decentralized and white-labeled version of that in which people own a part of Hvdson and can use it as a composable base layer to build other projects on top of - a decentralized musical persona simulation.

The vision is to have Hvdson perform at a stadium full of people - all of which have either been contributors of the project or own some portion of it.

Last November, I challenged myself to a personal "diddy-a-day" challenge. I made one beat a day for a week (with a break to celebrate Diwali <3). A Practice is the second single off my EP, diddies vol. 1, which is a collection of beats from those sessions. This track includes a bonus track titled '11.12'.

The winner of the auction will receive:
• A Practice + bonus wav. file
• A handmade, mini collage (painted, drawn, sketched, etc. by me)
• Stickers featuring original collage designs

About Translation: The final track on Interior, and rather than end with a turn towards more quiet, introspective tones (which is traditionally how I tend to end records), I wanted to end with a bit of a celebration. This song has gone through a number of different variations, but it wasn’t until I dropped in the microsamples and extended sax solo at the end that it really hit the mark.

This one does demand something from the listener though. The kick drum doesn’t even come in until the 3:30 mark. I do think people will be rewarded if they’re able to really live in the world of the song for the first half, until the big party comes in. The quiet parts of a song make the loud parts hit even harder, right?

To be honest, I wasn’t sure if this type of big, positive ending was the right fit for this record, but I’m really glad the folks at Cascine convinced me to not only keep it on the record, but have it wrap the whole experience up.

Suddenly I see myself reflected in the glass of my phone, I see what I'm doing. I'm ranting again, it looks like.
But it feels right to vent about this weird and fucked up world. It feels right to let these thoughts and theories out, to test them against others. My DoomTimelineTM rants are spontaneous bursts of energy that find their way out, potentially leading to a meaningful conversation with others, potentially hitting a deaf and blind wall. But if I don't share these insights, I get stuck.
//
But besides ranting on twitter about politics, climate change, human psychology, music industry, and other stuff that bugs me, what I really do in life is obviously this: I make music. But working on club music was really weird for a while during restrictions. It felt weird to make music that I couldn't experience in the setting I designed it for. But since then, I've been going to clubs again. I've been going out to hear others, and going out to play myself. It makes so much more sense for me to be making club music again now. So what better time for distorted 808s and breakbeats than right now?

“Ypoint" is the soundtrack of being alone at night, lit solely by the glow of your computer.  It’s calm and comforting, like a lullaby, but there’s moments of distortion, energy - like the data crackling like lightning between you and the interface, an infinite world in 1’s and 0’s expanding inwards.  This song tries to capture that feeling of contrast between a peaceful environment and a digital intensity.Written, performed and produced by A.RidhaMixed and mastered by A.RidhaCover art by LLR Design by ETC

About Swimming: This is one of the first songs I made for this record, some three years ago. It benefited so much from Joel Ford’s (who mixed the record) guidance. When I first sent him the original demos he said he could hear slivers of “early 2000s French house music”, even though I was hearing was colder, more modular-based synth sounds. Anyways, that note sent me down a rabbit hole which resulted in the record you’re hearing today, and Swimming is one of the songs that benefitted most from that note. This track is truly meant for a dance floor. I’ve spent a lot of the last few years trying to craft “ambient music that you could dance to”, but this one is about as close as I get to a DJ tool.

Richie Hawtin

Originally recorded and released in 1996, Concept 1’s monthly releases documented a year of sonic experimentation. Each month I would record as much music as possible with a strict and limited selection of technology.  Gone were the typical “Hawtin” combination of TR808, TR909 and TB303’s which had driven the techno tracks I had become known for under my F.U.S.E. and Plastikman aliases, replaced by a striped down selection centered around three Doepfer MAQ 16/3 sequencers and 5 panels of Serge modular racks. This year-long experiment ended up being the beginning of a new minimalistic phase and set the foundation for the Plastikman Consumed album.

This unreleased exploratory groove, "96:11 00:00”, was written on November 19, 1996 and was a testing ground for the shuffled 909 programming that appears on the released Concept 1 "96:11 21:00" track, as well as featuring the feedback textures that appeared on the final Concept 1 release "96:12 24:00”.

As the original Concept 1 release was limited to a specific number of physical releases, I thought that it would be an appropriate continuation of its concept to release this track as an edition of 1 NFT, using it as another exploratory move in this developing eco-system.

McClenney

SOS is one of the most important songs I've ever released. It was the 1st song I released after changing my stage name from "Chris McClenney" to "McClenney". 

It was the start of a new era of my career as an artist, and the song has become a staple of my catalog and introduced my music to a lot new people. 

lyrics: 
Hey, hey, oh, oh
Hey, hey, oh, oh
Hey, hey, oh, oh
Hey, hey, oh, oh

Verse 1-
Could you take me with you?
With you, Heaven's in view

Pre-Chorus-
I've been waiting here, dying
You've been taking your time, yeah
Save me from this life

Chorus-
(Hey) You've been
(Hey) Making
(Ooh) Me excited
You out here saving my life
(Hey) You've been
(Hey) Making
(Ooh) Me excited
You out here saving my life

Verse 2-
Could you take me with you
My muse, you make me brand new, oh

Hey, I've been waiting here, dying
You've been taking your time
Save me from this life

Beat Up Cars is a song about perseverance. It was a time in my life where everyday was a struggle just to make ends meet. I used to drive a car that would randomly cut off on the interstate. I mean like literally cut off and I would have to pray it would crank back up while doing about 80 mph (crazy I know). But even during those trying times I never let it get the best of me. I knew I was destined for something better and that those trials and tribulations were just preparation. 

I'm a firm believer in the law of attraction. I used to lived a fast life filled with negativity that often made me think in the same manner as my environment. When I realized that I could change my life by changing my mindset, life changed for me. In the bridge of this song I say 
"One day, One day you can be a star, even if you riding in a beat up ass car." What I meant by that phrase is no matter what your situation, if you think positive and keep putting in the work even the sky ain't the limit! 

Im living Proof...........

"plush" is an unreleased song I wrote as a free verse during a session with the producer Su Na. It was a psychedelic interpretation of the different things I was observing in life at the time. 

I was absorbing all of the emotions that emerged out of digital spaces as the world processed collective trauma. All of us are navigating through liminal spaces, warped reality, and fragmented memories.

the fourth and final song off of the unreleased WITA EP. this song was a turning point for us and a genesis point for the other songs on the EP.

hold on, i need you
i didn’t know til you were gone

and the the sunlight is bleeding
holding me close

baby now hold on
i need you
didn’t know til you were gone

and the moonlight beckons
beckons me closer

but 
what about all of what i think about?

hold on, i need you
i didn’t know til you were gone

and the the sunlight is bleeding
holding me close

and I’m hoping ill find you
with bright eyes and the widest smile

be the one to remind you
you’re living the life

but 
what about all of what i think about?

what i think about

this track is off of an EP that never was. we wrote it as a follow up to komorebi, to bridge into the next project. however the sonic direction completely changed in favor of what became "are we?" and so been there before and its companion songs are a unique moment of exploration in our sonic history. looking back, this material informed a lot of what we are currently releasing as we move toward "simple shapes". 

this song serves as a reminder that we are not our feelings, and that when things get tough the emotions surrounding whatever situation don't define us.

hope you enjoy :)

lyrics:

i see you
walking edges like your life depended on it
what you trying to be?

take yourself the way you are

when you’re feeling something bad
drop and leave it there
let the colors in
show yourself
cause that’s not who you are
who you are

i’ve been there before

i feel you
falling further and further every day
and i’m trying to be
here to show you that there’s light

when you’re seeing something bad
drop and leave it there
let the colors in
show yourself
cause that’s not who you are
who you are

i’ve been there before

As heard at the end of Soulection+ Radio Mix released on sound.xyz, this is yet another track that will end up on the "AbJonian Suite" beat tape. Each collector of this and all the "AbJonian Suite" NFT drops hereafter will have access to the tape as it stands now as well as an advance copy of the finished version before it's officially released!

Also, this is the first beat created for this tape more than 3 years ago, before the pandemic hit, and it's probably my favorite off the tape overall. The orchestra kid inside of me gets giddy hearing this on a top-notch system, so I suggest you do the same when you play this; like its namesake, everything becomes crystal clear once you do...

Inspired and encouraged by the warm glow of my Twitch family, this track was born live on stream as an instrumental and took on a life of its own behind closed doors. There is pure joy in creating without expectations or self-imposed boundaries. Music for the sake of music. Liquid Garage…
