Jake Jenkins - Don't Ask Me How I'm Doing EP (March 10, 2017) Album • Page 7

More dope shit Jake. This is real good.

 

follow this account....ive got something up my sleeve that doesnt fit under the music i make under my real name.... sophos

 

this will be my last solo EP (under the jake jenkins name) for a while, at least a year and a half if not two years. don't expect a new jake jenkins solo release until 2019. until then, i'll be collaborating as jake jenkins with several different people, including other producers and hopefully some reappers. im going to start my sophos project as well as pick back up phortress, my ambient/drone project. i think its time for me to lay the beat making down, or at least not keep it at the forefront, and explore new avenues so i can grow as a producer and musician.

 

Read the thread this replies to. Kind of tying up a long chapter of my life with this EP. Seems like a fitting ending to its two predecessors

 

More insight into the themes I tackle. Each song has a specific meaning

 

enough spam in my own thread. more music soon. enjoy the fortresses track

 

hi. i finally listened to this and it's perfect night mood music for not wanting to go to bed right now. Constant Threat is my fav right about now. Also Nothing Without Her.

 

Thank you! A certain old ap poster from Chicago (but now located in NY) is in the process of remixing constant threat. Actually he posts on chorus from time to time to. No more hints!!!!

 

Funny thing about nothing without her is I had that melody and basic beat made in July and she heard it on her initial visit and was like wow that's the best thing I've heard you make so I didn't even touch it til now and decided to make it a song just for her cuz she's my everything

 

I've been busy lately but I finally got a chance to listen to this thing in full! Current favorite song is "Relieve the Pain" because the soundscapes you make really do show the emotions you were feeling while creating this project. I'm also still really into "My Own Devices" and the interlude was really cool as well, felt like it's own song. I have no idea how you come up with the stuff you do but it's brilliant, great project overall. It's 8:30am right now though and I have a feeling this would hit a lot harder with the sun down

 

more to come very soon. just a sample of a demo.

 

So how does this sound after a month

 

just checked it out last night, this is really cool. great smoking music

 

I was listening to this again on the way to work today and I can't get over how much you always kill it on your interludes

 

Listened to most of this when my cousin was over the other day and he was very impressed. I still really enjoy this

 

late pass but the ep is very very good jake

 

THANKS EVERYONE!!!

repost from home recording thread:

alright i wanted to make room on my soundcloud because im too lazy to dish out money for pro, i rounded up all the beats i made in 2016 and put them on bandcamp as a mixtape just to have in one place. and in case anyone in here never heard some or any of them, here they are. i worked hard in 2016 and really tried finding and evolving my sound and just growing which is why i never made a proper project, but as a mixtape all these beats are pretty good together. in each track description i put the month it was recorded, youll notice a gap in may and june as i was falling off the deep end lol but i came back. anyway all the sounds here are what led me to my latest EP, which i think is the culmination of everything ive ever done and my best work yet but some of the beats here are just as good if not better so yeah, wanted to make sure these were still out there to show people while making room on my soundcloud. download is free

 

some of you who have been around may remember this but for those who werent....the four year anniversary of the first EP i ever made when i first started doing this is in like two days so i decided to put it back up in a very secret location just to see how far ive come.

about beats vol 1

 

hey but for real im trying like really hard to start selling beats if anyone knows anyone who may know anyone who may wanna buy some beats send them here or just share it anyway out of the goodness of your heart


jake jenkins beat store

 

side project shit, different vibe different style really proud of this one worked hard ended up having the most layers of any track I've made

 

one off single. more things coming very soon. and then after that, even more things are coming. stay tuned. listen to this tho.

 

Man I LOVE this, only listened to "Dug Out" (remix) so far, but so so great.

 

if you're the type who prefers SoundCloud well guess what it's there too

 

It's my birthday so if you were to listen to the split EP and lemme know what you think and maybe share it that would make my 25th the best!!!
