Concept Album/Sample Pack
A 9 track experimental album exploring different sonic landscapes using sounds that were recorded in the studio and out in public. Each track is a deep dive into a certain tactile sensation and a translation of real world artifacts into the sonic realm. Through out the album you will hear a multi genre approach to each of the songs utilizing complex sound design techniques that were used in abstract ways.
With this project we wanted to limit ourselves to the particular concept/theme we had in mind, while opening the door to many other possibilites in electronic music and furthering our understanding of what could be possible. Some sounds may sound familiar while others quite alien, we hope you enjoy!
Using a lot of the sounds we recorded for the album, we decided to create a sample pack for other producers/sound designers to utilise in their own audio endeavours. This pack contains over 150 drum samples that were synthesised/recorded, over 250 foley samples, and many other tools/sounds to help improve a creatives sonic palette.
Whether people need to give their drums a bit more life/an organic feel to them or simply want to beef up their collection of sounds, this pack is designed to help assist in wide array of audio productions.
The pack was released on Bandcamp as a "Pay what you want" and is just the start of many more to come.

Lewis, who produces under the alias "SHROOM", has been featured on many labels residing outside of Australia (such as Circa Trax, LVCHLD, Obvious Records, and Eject Records UK to name a few). Mainly creating Underground deep house, you can find that his music is heavily inspired by the old Chicago house era and takes influence from a lot of dutch deep house producers. With a solid few years of writing music in the studio, Lewis breathes a bit of fresh air into the iconic grooves of house music by utilising filtered synth stabs, pads and sampling chords. His signature sound has such a groovy flavour and he's definitely an artist you will want to keep an eye on.
" I am very big on textures when it comes to producing, making sure there’s a bit of grit to my mixes. I was thrilled to be apart of this group for the project and excited to see everyones reaction to it."
