NITEPPL: CULT (Album Release!!!)

New Niteppl ALBUM!!!!
After a year in waiting the world finally gets to taste this first album, Cult. And if the world knew what they were about to taste, they'd be drooling.
I've known Niteppl for a couple years now, and I've listened to this album on repeat for the last 6 months. Now it's your turn to be amazed.
It's like a fusion of funk, meets prog rock, meets like, electro? It's just niteppl, man. No other way to explain it.
Get on it, this shit's inspiring.

Got the Blue

I'm writing an album called "Not Sold in Stores." This is one track I've written off of the album, titled Got the Blue. I decided it would be fun to give it out to you guys as a nice lil' teaser!

This track started as a bootleg remix of an old dusty track, until I ended up stripping down most of what I did only to add my own ideas to it. I ended up using very little of the original track, so this is more like a cover that uses one or two samples. I thought it was an interesting take on my original inspiration for this. The entire album is going to be similar, doing bootleg covers and remixes and giving them to you for free. So keep an eye out, much more to come with "Not Sold in Stores."

This is the first track where you hear me doing vocals! I'm kinda shy, so this is a step of sorts for me. It was really fun, I hope writing the rest of this album turns out to be as fun of a learning experience as this one. 

Check the FUNK

Production Look: Starting a Remix

So I decided to film the first hour of starting this remix for the track Fiesta, byDilemmachine, and edited it down to 15 minutes. I thought the internets would be interested. It's a quick look at my workflow and brainstorming/execution



The original track is Fiesta by Dilemmachine, check it out here:

Got the Blue?

New track, the first production in one of two albums I'm writing. The album this belongs to is titled
"Not Sold in Stores," and it's gonna be some good stuff. I like it funky.
Funk.
Anyway, take a listen. This is me on bass/keys/vocals.

**Edit: Doing some work on this real quick, be back with it soon. For those of you who have access to the unreleased soundcloud set, I'm updating that every day
