Tornevall Reborn

Realizing the limits of using only existing music for mixes and mashups was a key moment in my creative journey. To publish my work and blend it into other compositions, I saw the need to create a new path, baded on my former me, in my field. This means creating original music again – and strategically remixing older content.

With advanced insights and a Reason Studio 13 subscription, I’m ready to transform my creative process. This started in December 2022 (with Reason 12), and this webspace will feature all new creations. Remixing will now be done mostly with Reason, leaving traditional DJ equipment behind. This strategic shift shows my commitment to innovation and excellence in music. Mixes will continue in other forms.

Singles / Albums (and some remixes)

This section showcases compositions that may eventually be on Spotify. It stores both current projects and those that might move to bigger platforms.

2024

In 2024, my music has gained new momentum due to a deeper understanding of Reason software and having more time to dedicate to it. Additionally, the use of AI to add lyrics without singing has made the process more colorful.

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8

I assume you are already familiar with the TikTok challenge ”1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8,” which involves synchronizing specific movements or actions to the rhythm of these numbers. This is a variation of that challenge, originally discovered at BigMerla’s, where a beat emerged clearly enough to become an entirely new piece. To make it even more interesting, there are ”traces of AI” in the work, further refining the sequence.

Tug of War Third Edition (2024-06-24)

Back in a reggae style has elements from the first release with added jungle influences, featuring Drum & Bass beats and reggae vibes. The beat and melody are new and original, with lyrics inspired from ChatGPT and Udio. The samples had to be recreated due to low quality, and some prior lyrics hade been used from the first release for which I gathered from a Wikipedia text.

Wokephobia (2024-04-13)

The term ”Wokephobia” came from my observations of right-wing extremists frequently appearing in comment sections of various posts. They often seem unaware of where they are commenting and the consequences, which led to my frustration.

Psicko Evolution (2024-04-08)

”Psicko Evolution” is a new release created with Reason 12. I thought the last remix of ”Psicko” would be the final one, but I was wrong.

KIS Gothenburg Instrumental (2024-04-07)

This is an instrumental version of ”Känn ingen sorg” and also the Spotify version.

Up (2024-04-06)

Up is a track that found its way from Tiktok out to a kind-of-remix.

Witness 2024 (2024-03-29)

Witness is actually a remix, but since it is based on its own material – and ultimately MINT – it is included among the other original works in this segment.

Tug of War Second Edition (2024-01-17)

The initial version of ”Tug of War” felt incomplete, so a second version, ”Second Edition,” was created to address this.


2023

Tug of War – Original Version (2023-12-04)

This is the first theme-based song created so far. It is primarily designed to honor the Swedish tug-of-war scene, but also to celebrate tug-of-war globally. Given that the sport is not particularly large – rather limited (it was once even an Olympic event) – I felt it needed more attention.

During the Elite-1 competition 2024 it reached the field in Stenungsund.

Pain (Legacy Remix)

This represents the first revisitation to the legacy collection, featuring a remix of ”Pain (Hell on Earth).” The original version was initially excluded from the first batch of uploads to Spotify as it lacked both intensity and emotional depth. To render fairly justice to the piece, it was reimagined and remixed in 2023.

Man in the middle (January 2023)


2022

Bejeweled 3 (2022-12-30) (The old Emily’s Song resurrection)

Bejeweled was a continued remix of a MINT project, making sure everybody was pleased to get a dedication in the family!

Flurry Flute (2022-12-24)

Flurry Flute was a project that originated on Tiktok, based on a ”Drum & Flute”-record (instead of Drum & Bass). It later became ”Flurry Flute” and went out to Spotify.

Deep State (December 2023)


Remixed / Resampled

This section features music with third-party samples, which won’t be monetized or uploaded due to sample clearance difficulties, and is created mostly for fun.


MINT (The MINT Experiment)

The MINT Experiment has both storage space here and a homepage located at themintexperiment.se. The separate homepage works as an entry point for external visitors as of today. The segment is based on MINT’s original tracks.

MINT on Spotify

Since MINT is too ”small” (in the relation to musical releases), there is no ”This is”-playlist created by Spotify. Instead, there’s a custom playlist for MINT here.

Legacy

The ”Legacy” section features music with a unique approach compared to the ”Rebirth” section. Originally made in the late 1980s and 1990s with FastTracker 2, development later transitioned through CakeWalk and an early version of Reason. These compositions are created without following traditional EDM rules, capturing a raw and inventive spirit.

Morse

”Phsicko” Collection

The FastTracker 2.x-collection that later got its name ”Psicko”. The primary purpose of ”Psicko” was to present a comedic side of the life during the 1990s.

Frankly Hating (Bad Reputation Saga – Haters Collection 2001)

Through Your Neck

This tune was actually created as a response to a rivalry in young ages.

Mixes

This playlist is a dedication to ”own creations” through life. It’s complex though, since almost none of the releases are following any kind of EDM rule and therefore is quite difficult to handle overall.
