by BioStorm
BioStorm is always inspired by the old and the new styles around him. Ever since hearing the first 303 acid dripping tracks in 1988, he travelled through time via house, techno, trance, hardcore, drum and bass, dubstep, hiphop and pop. At the age of 18 was selling his moped to buy a sampler instead the right move because. Because decades later he's still at it, working from The Netherlands, which is an actual country in Western Europa :) His philosophy is: electronic dance music DOES have a soul and comes in many forms. BioStorm is not about one style, but one universal language.

Harder
What started as getting a simple melody from an actual Roland Alpha Juno-2 and modulating a TB-303 to it, it needed to expand into a full track. Playing around with some own lyrics and turning those into raps, the track was growing. Uptempo TR-909 percussion added quite the impact. But it also...

Appelsap Song
Very happy poppy Dutch song about apple juice

The Sentinel
Once I wrote some lyrics for spoken word describing an adventurous scene in India, the project gradually took form. The Indian percussion and chanting obviously added to the atmosphere. At the point where the celebratory vibe kicks in, the plot twist also emerges. Time for the characters to…

Scream ft. Bianca@ACE_Studio
This time - obviously! - I was going for the BioStorm Hallowoon project of 2024! This time I started with inspiration from some arps in a synth (chord notes played sequentially) and worked from that. After this I played around with some vocal melodies and decided to include one of the AI singers…

Live Your Life ft. Bianca@ACE_Studio
In the beginning this track was inspired by some awesome basses from one of the plugins I own. Soon it was clear some breakbeats were needed! But hey, sticking to my eclectic self, thought it needed some hardcore kicks too. Started the track a year ago and left it alone for some time. I did pick…

Top Secret
An uptempo circus track with clowny sounds and hard kicks. It is about an indiviual who is looking for lost documents that are labeled 'top secret'.
-
Fire Pants
What started as wanting-to-use-a-soprano-vocal ended up being this uptempo freestyle electronic track with that specific BioStorm flavour!
-
Guillotine
Inspired by one of the most eclectic and fast-paced styles out-there, being Frenchcore, I decided to use French vocals in this track. Almost immediately this made me think of the French Revolution and the motto of France. Not coincidentally being the time of the horrific tool the guillotine.…

Pounding
This eclectic electronic track is an intense uptempo track about a fictional psychiatric hospital. A journalist of some type is describing the rumours about what goes on in there. Experiencing dark trips as being one of them.
-
Hercules
Playing around with the darker side of the harder type of techno this is - yet again - a typical BioStorm track. Tension in the track, crazy synths, hard bass and kicks, it is all there. Adding vocals here and there obviously brings the track to life. The fierce rap but also the used choir vocals...
-
Timekeeper
How to describe this track? Well, yet again a nice dose of BioStorm Storytelling. Taking you into another world, maybe even the next :p Like always, appreciating the uptempo. Respecting the hard kick. When it comes to the setting: more tension, more crazy soundz. More vocals, both raw and angelic...

No Stress (303 Version)
===SPECIAL 303 VERSION=== While attending the online course "Art Of Music" at the Berklee College Of Music in 2017, there were a few assignments. One of them being: make and produce a song with a message. There was a lot of room for creativity and doing this in your own way. This resulted in an...

No Stress (Berklee Course Edition)
While attending the online course "Art Of Music" at the Berklee College Of Music in 2017, there were a few assignments. One of them being: make and produce a song with a message. There was a lot of room for creativity and doing this in your own way. This resulted in an electronic power song with...

Let It Go (feat. Holly)
Going through my sound libraries had me stubble upon a nice track called "Let It Go". No, not that one :) #Frozen It was an 80 bpm track but I wanted to give it the BioStorm-treatment! Meaning more tempo, a lot of synth-power and variation. Using all the part of the lyrics (every verse and...

Electricity
You may realize, or maybe you do not. But electricity is found throughout the human body. The flow of charged ions causes your heart to beat and your muscles to contract. But nowhere in the body is electrical activity better documented than the brain, which contains roughly a hundred billion...

Exotic Soundz
After finishing and releasing the fourth BioStorm album, creativity did not stop there! With this track BioStorm is once again at it, with uptempo, ethnic and rave inspired sounds. Combined together in a sauce of breakbeats. ===Lyrics=== "Exotic Soundz are all around you" "So listen closely and...
-
Calculated Risk
During my eternal search for cool vocals, I once more deciced to make my own, see the lyrics below. Being a big fan of dark uptempo breakbeats I decided to go drum and bass on this one. Meaning: crazy atmospheres, synths and basses. This will probably the last track on my fourth album. Be sure to...
-
Sound Of '88
Fooling around with some 808 percussion and sounds from the Juno synth, gave me the idea to go back in time! Always being influenced by "my house roots" back in the day, I wanted the entire atmosphere to be just that. Using the 303 in the typical way made it work. Leaving out some cheesy vocals...
-
Das Tempo
This track was based on experimentation with multiple fx on a 909 kick. Once I had a dry and more "spring" sounding kick, I went with some distorted lead sounds. Cheering it all up with a breakbeat :) Once I had an idea for the vocals, being "German lyrics", I came up with the theme of "tempo"....
-
Number One
Back in the year 2013 - yes that is a long time ago... - I started this track. Obviously trap music, with a snap, heavy 808 kick, snare bursts etc. Left it alone for a while then. Picked it up last December! Doing so, it soon became exotic, using lofi and hifi brass. On top of that I found a…

8-bit Countdown
So, here's another drum & bass track, finally, again! ;)An uptempo track with some 8-bit inspiration and crazy sounds. This time started with a distorted guitar sound in a melody. From that went playing with FX, timestretches and wobbles. But also some violins, choir and brass for dramatic…

1001 Nights
I have been waiting to try an ethnic set of percussion for a while now. This track is powered by it! Oh, and don't forget the flute. Intentionally wanted them to sound lo-fi somehow, think I managed that. Adding a custom BioStorm vocal, of course! ;) Also played around with some distorted guitar...
-
741 Feet Deep
A dark hard dance track about the gates of hell. Or so I have been told :p (by a person with lyrics below) This little thing was inspired by a movie, this happens sometimes. Of course, I always like the choir-sound in hardcore tracks and tension of the darker tales! ;) So, this basically started...
-
Figure It Out
Happy vocal garage house track with a 2step rhythm. Featuring an unknown singer on it. Male or female, who knows :)
-
Your Days Are Numbered
Another manic dark atmosphered track from the BioStorm kitchen! Inspired by the title I thought up first. Having the 'number' theme of the upcoming fourth album. Started with adding harp, bell, synth and of course the beat. Oh, don't forget the scream and choir for dramatic effect. Been tweaking…
more -
Two Islands
An ambient track like back in the day! Inspired by the concept of being on an island with nothing else but waves and other soothing and relaxing sounds. The windchime and vocals are custom made. The rest was altered to fit into the plan. Couldn't completely leave out the beats!
-
Count Dracula
Presenting a dubstep showcase with lots of variation from rough to funky and even happy! Join me on an adventure into the mind of BioStorm! First I made up the title in this case, being related to the number -theme of BioStorm album "F0ur". Then the vocals and atmosphere came. Soon added the…

Sum Of All Fears
Uptempo industrial experimental drum & bass with a slight claustrofobic taste to it :p Started with an eerie sound and an industrial snare. Went from there. Synths, basses, custom made vocals and perc, the works.
-
One Of Us
Inspired by the sound of the xylophone, with some imagination sounding like Skulls and Bones, decided to have myself another creepy setting around a secret society known by the same name. Even though the basic ingredients were easily done, I also wanted to play around with the big room sound....
-
Equation
Once again time for some drum & bass violence! One of the styles BioStorm's loyal to. Intentionally many different influences all over this track though. Making tracks never starts the same way. This one did by starting with the suspense intro, but soon enough the spacey synth and filthy wobbles...
