Squeeze the Lemon - AC014

“Squeeze the Lemon” is a new melodic techno track by Alex Cargo. This experimental track features sounds created using a single synthesizer, a limitation that serves to better understand what can be achieved with the instrument, its limits, and to enjoy the creative process. I hope you enjoy listening to the track as much as I enjoyed creating it. You can listen to it on your preferred streaming platform or download it from my page on Boosty. ...

Riemann hypothesis - AC013

A new single called “Riemann hypothesis” in the style of melodic techno by Alex Cargo has been released. Listen to Riemann hypothesis on your favorite streaming services. Or download it on my Boosty page. This track is Alex Cargo’s attempt to use sounds from his favorite sound designer. All the sounds in the track are created from creatively processed samples by Riemann. The atmosphere of the track is created by a soft, pumping bass and airy pads. Drums and percussion set the groove and movement of the track. The synthesizer appears on the scene. It plays its melody by changing its timbre from gentle to aggressive. This creates a hypnotic effect. ...

Meditation

On October 25, a new melodic techno single titled “Meditation” was released. The track can be listened to on streaming platforms (alternative link) or downloaded for free on Boosty. A deep, pulsating bass forms the foundation of the track. Arpeggios support the rhythm and pulse of the piece. Percussion and drums add groove and danceability. The main melodic line is built around a repeated musical phrase featuring a bright, short sound reminiscent of brass instruments. In the second part of the track, a contrasting melodic line emerges. ...

Talk to Me: The Legendary TB303 in FL Studio

TB303 is a synthesizer mistake. It was doomed to be forgotten. Roland marketed it as a replacement for the bass guitar. It performed terribly in this function, and the purchased machines ended up in second-hand shops at throwaway prices. It was then noticed by electronic music producers and turned into a legend. “Talk to Me” is my fresh track built around an acid line. It’s melodic techno, put together in FL Studio. The main role in it is given to Transistor Bass, which is responsible for the sound “like the TB303.” The track is available on streaming platforms (alternative link) and Boosty. ...

Heavy Rain

I’ve been avoiding the topic of samples for a long time. For me, synthesizers were the main actors. Of course, I made tracks using percussion loops. Of course, I use individual samples for drums. But the idea of a track being built around a musical phrase taken from a sample pack… I couldn’t say I hadn’t done it before. But then it was more of a learning project. Heavy Rain is my first serious experience in the melodic techno genre. ...

Chess

The single “Chess” has been released: melodic techno with acid fragments. Not an authentic 303 from Roland, but an imitation. I wanted to check how such a sound would fit into the genre. Checked. Listen to Chess on all major streaming services I often come up with the name of the track in advance when I make the first draft. I save the project and immediately give it a name. And this name largely determines the sound and idea of the track. It was like that with Summer Holidays on Mars, with Poker Face, with Reunion. Usually, the connection between the name and the sound is clear only to me. In the last case, the name evoked associations with “Blade Runner” and its soundtrack by Vangelis. ...

Summer Holidays on Mars

Summer Holidays on Mars is my new track in the Melodic Techno style. It is already available on all streaming platforms. DJs and video creators can download it for free. Listen to Summer Holidays on Mars on all major streaming services The melody of the track catches from the first notes, and the percussion calls to dance. I really like this track (who would have thought ;)). I hope that Summer Holidays on Mars can be enjoyed both at home and in a DJ set at a noisy club party. ...

Poker Face

In the heart of the electronic labyrinth lies “Poker Face,” an audial expedition that pulsates through the shadows of dark, energetic, and melodic techno. Listen to Poker Face on all major streaming services This instrumental creation weaves a sonic tapestry, encapsulating listeners in its enigmatic atmosphere. With a deliberate low emotional dynamic, the track builds a mysterious ambiance, guided by hypnotic beats and intricate synth arrangements. As the rhythmic waves unfold, the absence of vocals enhances the immersive experience, allowing the music to speak directly to the soul. ...
