Mykie Frankenstein I’m pretty sure I’ve played this video game back in the day. Even though the game doesn’t actually exist. I’m glad this experimental phase happened. Favorite track: corroded feed line.

about

Created entirely on my Novation Circuit using stock patches and Gabe Miller's free sample pack for percussion. A few tracks use an external keyboard (Arturia Keystep) for the arpeggiator and one uses an overdubbed third synth. Otherwise, they are played "live" without any external processing.

If someone wants to make a video game to go along with this soundtrack, feel free. I think it sounds like a "Metroidvania" sort of side-scrolling thing, but I wouldn't presume to dictate.

ATM1L0 Washington

First there's a sound you need to hear

but no one has yet made it

so you try to make it

it sucks

you keep doing it

gradually it gets closer to what you need to hear

but never quite gets there

you end up making lots of other sounds

and some of those are pretty okay. ... more

Death Cult
by Jessica B. Kelly & The Void Conspiracy

supported by 5 fans who also own “variable resistor OST”

Sometimes you need something angry, but funky. A song that understands how you feel in your current moment about <thing>. Dealth Cult is that something. I find myself in random moments going "FUCKING DEATH CUUULT", if you want to know how much of an ear-worm this track is. Def recommend it to all my angry homies. somoso

A Soul Rendered Void (Remastered)
by Jessica B. Kelly

supported by 4 fans who also own “variable resistor OST”

Voidtouched (Absolute Checkmate Remix), the first track is an absolute kick in the teeth that sets the tone for the entire album. Very gritty industrial with a few synth-pop notes that carries through that mood all the way through to my favorite track Apathy (Abandon All Hope Remix). I think it might be my favorite Jessica Kelly album so far. Bel Temple

Essential Jessica Kelly. Heavy while still being approachable. Enough variety that everyone can have a favorite track. Mykie Frankenstein

Spiders in my Eyes!

It's been a long time since someone made me appreciate this genre. Also, the strong Sister of Mercy vibe, complete with the beautiful cavernous voice, can't fail. Simone Silvestroni (Minutes to Midnight)
