The Fallen — a signal for those who stood between us and the darkness. Dreadkode’s newest tribute is for the veterans who gave everything. No theatrics. No noise for the sake of noise. Just a moment carved out of the chaos to honor the ones who never came home. Their courage wasn’t a story. It was a choice — made in real time, under real fear, with real consequences. This track carries that weight: the silence after impact, the echo of duty, the heartbeat of sacrifice. To the fallen: Your names live in the quiet between the bass hits. Your legacy lives in the freedom we wake up to. Your memory lives in every one of us. This one is for you. Available 10/21/26more

Aubin Grove: a chillwave track about the titular train station marking the end of the new longest period (8+ months) of no new MOULE releases! -- • Check out Aubin Grove's merch: https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/184174480 • Aubin Grove Cover Art Timelapse: https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=JWmyRLplXe0 • All MOULE links + more streaming sites: https://MOULE.WORLD -- Aubin Grove is my 140th release, and the sequel to my 14th release Cockburn Central (moule.bandcamp.com/track/cockburn-central) released in early 2020. In fact, Aubin Grove was finished on December 31, 2020, but only remastered two days before release, as listening back to Cockburn Central I became very ashamed of the mastering I did on it, and inspired me to end my 8+ months of not releasing anything by releasing a well-mastered track about the next train station on Transperth's Mandurah line: Aubin Grove. (Fun fact: it does not use Logic Pro's Mastering Assistant; I made the track sound washed out on purpose to capture a more chillwave feel.) -- The "Next station: Aubin Grove" and "This is Aubin Grove" train announcements were recorded on August 9, 2021, as were many other train stations' announcements recorded at different dates, intended to be included in tracks for a really long album series for each Transperth line, with one track per station. I've come to accept this is a monumental project size for me so I've just settled with releasing tracks like this for whatever stations I can. This is also me fighting back against my perfectionism. -- As with Cockburn Central, Aubin Grove was inspired by "BlueLineHome" by MS-W: https://sunsetgrid.bandcamp.com/track/bluelinehome -- As for its cover artwork, it took over 6 hours to make, closely overlaying vector shapes in the Assembly app for iOS over a photo of the station I took in early 2022, followed by a photo of a Transperth B-series train I took in early 2023. This is in contrast to Cockburn Central's artwork when I had much less patience making artworks and settled with a messy cartoon filter for it. -- Towards the end of this artwork's creation, my OCD and perfectionism once again began obsessing with details and I felt compelled to add them, such as the tiny labels beside the train's doors and shadow effects. Coupled with an increasingly lagging Assembly file, it added to this artwork's time to make, but in the end I think it's worth it as I'm quite proud of this artwork (it's rare for me to be proud of my own music and art!). -- Instead of increasing the speed of this artwork's timelapse's video (https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=JWmyRLplXe0) to a really fast speed to make the timelapse shorter, from now on I'm opting to only increase the speed a little. This results in much longer timelapses which are more accessible to those with sensitivities to rapidly-changing imagery, as well as more detail and attention on how I carefully moved each vector shape to overlay over the photos. -- Let me know what you think on the Fediverse (https://mastodon.moule.world/@MOULE), in a comment to this, and for more MOULE, visit: https://MOULE.WORLD more

Wrote this song during a low point in my life with grief of my 8 year old child who passed away in 2023 from Brain Cancer. 🎗️more
