Hi Our Basement,
“On My Own” is a song that I love, first & foremost.
It takes me to a place tinged with the familiarity of the past, touched by the future, and grounded in the now. Recorded solely using vintage gear, it features the Mini Moog and Prophet 5, with drums programmed on the iconic Linn 9000.
I created this song for the listener who appreciates in equal parts the new, the old, and the obscure. The bassline is all ‘80s – dark but somehow hopeful, complemented by synth and drums full of momentum that’ll make you want to move.
With an eye on the year ahead, I look forward to working more on my new material from my forthcoming EP, stepping outside of my usual routine of making productions (Drake, Eminem, 50 Cent, P!nk) for other artists.
This is “On My Own” – turn up the volume, take it in, and dance!

Jesus, that penultimate sentence!
Good morning, or other time-of-day specific!
I must listen, but right now, it’s violin in a chamber orchestra. Soothing
Woops they just got really going in another movement…
The first four note riff (bass, etc.) reminds me of another song. It also keeps coming back throughout, part of the skeleton of the tune. I think the two riffs are actually a little different (last 2 notes?).
Very reminiscent of something that is close to coming to my mind. Hmm almost got it…..
There is definitely some Prince like stuff in the vocals but that riff is reminding me strongly of a song that I am going to think of eventually.
Cars by Gary Numan!!

Nice mix of old and new indeed.
That’s the one! Cars! Yayyyyy!
I knew I would think of it! It was right there waiting for me to grab on to it.
