    uniE603 'Feel my Love' (House Remix for club set)
    This is a remix of an 80s funk track called 'Feel my Love' by Butch Dayo and Vaughan Mason. I made this for one of my friends 'Old School' house sets for a gig they had upcoming at a club.
    uniE603 Burnout - ARIE
    One of the latest singles from one of my clients, in which I produced, mixed and mastered the track. This track was very sound design focused with a lot of indepth synth layers, as well as a lot of vocal stacking and harmony layers.
    uniE603 'End of Life' - Video Game Soundtrack
    'End of Life' was a short soundtrack I created for a client for their own small indie game. Heavily focused on low fidelity synthesizers and an overall sombre and melancholy mood.
