The Wrecked Youth|

Overview|

Date: August 19, 2024

The Wrecked Youth was an Indie Duo comprised of Me and One other Musician. We both met online through a random facebook ad and clicked.

We were influenced by artists like Gus Dapperton and Artic Monkeys. We released a couple singles on spotify and youtube.

Contributions:|

I primarily composed all the instrumentals within Ableton and I did vocals aswell. Most songs were made with midi drums and synth plugins like Serum and Xpand but I also played guitar in a couple myself.

Motivation:|

We both had a similiar taste in music at the time and liked each others music. So we decided to work together online to make some nice tunes which I believe we did.

Development:|

This project included many hardships with the long distance, new style to actually make, and also mixing/mastering the songs to be satisfying to both members. Trying to make digital instruments sound somewhat analog and convincing. I had to learn a lot about how to use noise and ambience to a songs strengths.
