About Me

Arcade Velocity began in 2004 when my brother hooked me up with Reason. I started out making stiff sounding electro but as time passed it evolved into something different. The biggest turnpoint was the track 'The beat that keeps us alive' on which I decided to sing. It was a big step forward in terms of songwriting and courage.
"So what is Arcade Velocity?" you might ask. You could call it an experimental music project where 'serious' and 'playful' battles on forever. I write the music I'd like to hear and my everchanging taste in music affects my musical direction. Does Arcade Velocity have a purpose? That's for you to decide...

Want me to remix or get remixed? A collab perhaps? Just drop me a pm.
What's going on?
A little bit of this, a little bit of that. 'First thing's last' will be released when it's done and when I'm satisfied with it. I'm currently remixing stuff and I'm surprised to see such a big interest in my Hey Ya remix. Almost 200 plays in one day is completely bizarre! Exciting times, exciting times indeed...
