I can't shake this dream

By s.d.s. on February 1, 2026 7:07 am

That feeling when you know you're dreaming but can't wake up, stuck in this bizarre state of awareness and control and inability to make it stop.

I swear I try to sit down and execute on an idea in my head but as soon as I start playing it all just turns to...this. Whatever this is.

Ableton Move through some external effects, recorded on 1010Music Bluebox, slight attempt at mastering in Logic.

Definitely captures that uncanny, uncomfortable vibe (in a way that's not uncomfortable to listen to). Very dreamlike.

Yeah, 100% agreed! Super dreamy, ethereal. The repeated guitar strum really emphasizes the dream-like nature of it, the dreamer stuck in a loop they can't break away from.
Very nice!

it easily could have become something boring but you have such a good idea of the atmosphere you want that it really stays interesting

I think I do, but then you show what you got to others and they absolutely love it, so you might as well keep going, hoping one day you make the thing you actually wanted.
