Taking the Time It Takes

I’m a little behind schedule releasing the latest track I promised... Not that it’s any excuse, but some cool new opportunities are underway that need call for much of my time at the moment, but I promise it’ll be worth it. (Both the time into the new venture as well as taking the time to properly finish the next track before releasing it!) Stay tuned \m/

I never wanted to choose one career/interest to devote my life to, and I don't think I ever will. Society has always made this lifestyle seem wrong or 'against the grain', but this is my story and I'm gonna tell it my way. #hardwiredtobehappy #dowhatyoulove #allthethingsyoulove #noroomfornegativity

Super stoked to announce the newest track "It's No Wonder" --check it out RIGHT NOW. (And you're in for a treat, as this tasty track has guest screams from Ottawa's very own Graham Cwinn of local metal group ...From the Deep!) Enjoy :)

It's beyond heartbreaking to have just visited you to congratulate you on your incredible new job/life in Muskoka and have you taken away from us so soon afterwards. We'll remember you always. (at West Lorne, Ontario)

Dark, yet also melodic hybrid trap track. Originally intended as a backup beat for a rap artist but ended up with vocoder a la DJ Snake style decimate voice. I don't get high, but if I did I'd do it to this track fo sho. Enjoy \m/

[markianmusic]

A little dubstep track with some trap influence and a splash of electro in there for fun. That's me on vocals with a splicer effect. This track was inspired by that amazing feeling we get during and after a work out. For me it's crossfit, but really any solid exercise will give you that same feeling-- not to mention getting busy in the sac ;) I had a lot of fun building this ditty for sure! Enjoy :)

This track is heavily influenced by what I liked from 80's music: cheesy synth, reverb snare, basic beat, good groove, dance ready, etc. Makes a great instrumental track for a video game, background music to a chill sesh with friends, or something new with an oldschool edge on the dance floor.
