REALITY — Concept EP (OZØNE RCRDS)

Published
REALITY is a 7-track, story-driven electronic EP written, produced, mixed and released independently as my ADE project. The record explores the relationship between humanity and AI, unfolding as a cinematic narrative across bass house, melodic techno, techno and drum & bass influences.
Each track represents a chapter in the story, designed to function both as standalone club records and as part of a wider conceptual experience. The project intentionally blends high-impact sound design with emotional pacing, focusing on tension, melody and atmosphere rather than traditional drop-led structures.
A key part of the process involved collaborating with AI as a storytelling tool — using it selectively as the “voice of the machine” while keeping human emotion and instinct at the core of the music. The result is a project that feels forward-thinking but grounded, built for both mainstage moments and immersive listening.
Released on my own label, OZØNE RCRDS, REALITY has received support from BBC Introducing, Tomorrowland One World Radio and Laidback Luke, and was written and finished entirely in North Shields.
