Wave2

Unshackled by genre, the Wave2 sound is a blend of melodic, rhythmic, and ambient elements that frequently incorporate field recordings and analog instruments / effects. Nature and the human touch play a big part in the music I create, often unquantised and always imperfect.

Screamer 2025

2025/10/30

Another year, another Screamer!I almost didn’t make this year’s Screamer. I have been so busy lately, studying and working on a side project, that I had to give up on producing new music for a while. You can thank my daughter, though, for this one. She hoped to hear her scream on yet another Halloween track. Oh, and an email reminded me there were only a few days left until this year’s Amsterdam Dance Event - fate, right? I’ve not been to the dance event since my daughter was born, but I watch

Cadd9 (Cycle 66.6)

2025/10/12

I wanted to celebrate the birth of OneChord.click by creating my first ambient / drone track using a single chord for inspiration.https://onechord.click/c/add9 It’s a dark, ominous track that has a pulsing bass that threatens to destroy everything! Like an engine coming to life after centuries beneath lava, rock and ocean, this track awakens to bring chaos and fear to the world. I reckon most of the kit in my studio needs tightening up after playing this a few times.

Sylphs of Tortuga Bay

It’s late. Everyone is fast asleep on this, the calmest of nights, but you are restless.Something or someone is calling you. Drawn to the magnificent moon resting low in the starlit sky, you make your way out into the dense mangroves, the soft sand cushioning your steps. Along the shoreline, moonbeams cast a silvery sheen over the sparkling surface of the tranquil sea. A gentle ocean breeze paints your skin as the sand between your toes solidifies under the foamy water lapping at your

As the hours turn to reward, as the sun’s rays start to wane, heat from the oven rises, carrying a message for all to savour.Now is the time for love and laughter, for celebrating and sharing all the fruits that Mother Earth provided. There is no hiding from the warmth of the sun, nor can you escape the joy that rides on the air this day. For those whose inner glow is at its lowest, may they be blessed with reminders of all that we are, the love of those nearest, and a bountiful

Danger of Death

Wave2 ·

2025/07/03

Like many of my tracks, the inspiration for this one came during my morning walk across the meadow.Lost in thought as the sun warmed my face, I heard a loud fizzing and cracking sound coming from above. It came from an old wooden power pylon cocooned in ivy, strands of which were draped in between the insulators, acting as a conduit for the thousands of volts that surged through the vines. Nature was fighting back. I noticed the bright yellow sign that said ‘Danger of Death’, and it suddenly

As the sun climbs over the horizon, enter the glade down by the river.Kneel by the water’s edge, and focus your gaze on the reflective blue tones that dance across the undulating iridescent surface. The sapphire sky you see is not the same as that above. Lean closer. Peer through the shimmering reflection. Clear your mind. Let the glimmer consume your thoughts. Now fall. Headfirst, as though the river never existed. Fall into the reflective blue tones, arms outreached and eyes closed. Feel the

Facinorous

2025/05/16

I really struggled to name and describe this “atrociously wicked” track. 😈It’s ambient Jim, but not as we know it. It’s mysterious and cinematic, with some delicate parts, but a fight between the strings, drums, and electronics is what makes this track different. Even the premature end feels off, what with the bass about to hit and transform it into something you could move to. Anyhow, I hope you like this schizophrenic track, and maybe you’ll find your own favourite element in amongst this

Oscillodynamics

With the phosphor beacon’s light dimming, the encroaching darkness felt strangely welcoming; lost, yet deeply at home in the shadows.Struck by an electron, my heart beats a frantic rhythm against the clicking of unseen entities. I envision spiders, their forms indistinct in the vast darkness. Tumbling into the murky depths, my body oscillating and vibrating as the electrostatic pulses deflect off my tingling skin, pushing me forward, closer. I can hear your call. Is this a dream?

Strawberry Fallout

My mind is a blank canvas, devoid of any adventurous ideas, staring blankly at my laptop screen. Withing the realms of reality, I strive to put something into action, to make something appear in the world. How can I find the magic inside of me? How can I tease the words into the world, into this space I exist, this plane or existence? Music lives in my heart. It wants to escape to be born into the world of online chaos to help those in need of a sign, of a signal that only a few can receive, in

Instabium

2025/02/07

This one is a bit out there compared to my other tracks (déjà vu). It’s not quite stable in any sense of the word. It’s what I imagine some newly discovered element would sound like when put under an acoustic microscope, hence the name Instabium.The whole track stemmed from the idea that I could just use one instrument to create some sound/noise from just randomly hitting a single note for a few bars, and then use some filters and effects to carve out something that might intrigue the ear. I’ve

Whispers of Frost and Mist

2025/01/14

Sometimes you are just drawn to a moment.You’ll be running along, inhaling the icy dawn mist while listening to a podcast, when you notice it. Eyes fixed on something unusual, your limbs twist involuntarily away from the footpath, shoes crunching over unbeaten frozen ground. In that moment, in awe, in silence, you become one with the sharp edges of the frost shrouded landscape. A wave of intense euphoria and total isolation in space and time washes over you. That moment will not leave you. It

This futuristic ambient track has an almost gravitational, magnetic feel to it. As though being pulled through fields of swirling light and reverberating fluctuations.The journey begins with a rich sonic space created by pulses of vibrant electronic energy, a deep driving rhythm, and the subtle hiss of static electricity. Where will it take you, I wonder?

Midwinter

2024/12/19

Looking outside my window as I produce this track, you wouldn’t think that we were only a few days away from the winter solstice. The sun is shining brighter than ever (solar maximum?) and even the cherry blossom trees are confused as to the season. I promised a dreamy track for this year’s winter solstice, and while the darkness is all around us, this track carries the hope that it won’t be long before the light returns. Midwinter marks the longest night of the year, a time for dreaming. I hope

Space Octopus

'Somewhere out there in the vastness of space, he waits. As if suspended in time, he drifts through the ether, the subtle currents brushing against his restless, iridescent tentacles.' 🐙This cinematic electronic track blends eight orchestral instruments, analog synths, and wooden drums to take you on a journey through the cosmos, in search of the Space Octopus. It’s not a long track at around 3 minutes, but it moves nicely through a few musical styles, combining ambience with just the right

Lonely Robin

2024/11/29

“The air was crisp and still that morning. All I could hear was the soft chirping of a Lonely Robin, its red breast aglow like a hearth’s warm flame, a resilient beacon of life amongst the season's tranquility.”This track started life as a Christmas ambient track, but while I kept the instruments often associated with that time of year, the track took a less upbeat direction than I wanted. I’m not one to fight the flow, and anyway, I like the outcome. It’s a good one for bedtime. If you close

Meeow

2024/11/21

No cats were harmed in the making of this track! In fact, no cats were involved in the making of this track at all. Well, not that I know of. The meeowing sound comes from Steinberg’s Padshop, so it’s plausible that the original sample may have come from a cat demanding attention. There’s a bit of everything in this track, from dreamy synth pads, stabbing string plucks, to anthemic chords. I even crammed in some steel drums! This track serves as a distraction from your daily life, a glimpse into

This track was a real challenge to mix. The frequencies were constantly clashing, creating an inner vibration that can be both pleasing and painful at the same time. It also has a bit of a James Bond vibe. I always get drawn back to those Bond songs, I don’t know why. I reckon I should have been a secret agent in another life! Listening to it will motivate you to do something. Anyway, I hope you like it. 🔫🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

2024/11/08

To be honest, this track feels like an ambient extension of my last track, Mr. Nibbles. This definitely has a Tangerine Dream vibe, probably because it reminds me of cleaning out Mr. Nibbles’ cage, which we always did while listening to their music. I chose the name at random, so it has no meaning, other than the method used to select it: Reaching for my New World Translation, a treasured gift from years gone by, I randomly selected a page, closed my eyes, and blindly pointed.

Distention

2023/11/24

This track came together by accident (as most tracks do) while I was learning about displacement dissonance.It starts with a slow breathing bassline that I made with the Sirin before clashing with a completely out of sync melody played on the Mellotron V, just some stabs really. Strangely, it seemed to work. I used the Piano V3 to draw the attention away from the Mellotron, and while it doesn’t quite sit within the mix, it adds just enough tension to keep you interested, at least I think

Screamer 2023

With Halloween approaching, I thought I would brush up on my production skills (it’s been a while) and work on a new Halloween party track. I’m a big fan of those American horror movie party scenes, where everyone is in costume, plastic beer cup in hand. This is the track my mind constructs, as the front door opens and the noise escapes into the night. My daughter’s scream (she's unharmed) was perfect in last years Screamer track, so I reused it and asked her to supply an evil laugh for this
