Three Textures

Music · IN 9

A sound study drawn from what we’re hearing now.

Glossy, gritty, and weird-but-pretty—three textures shaping current music culture.

These are original audio studies, created as reference environments to translate the feel of what’s emerging.

You learn the shift by feeling it.

These aren’t soundtracks. They’re reference environments—short sound studies designed to make a texture instantly recognizable.

  • Glossy: clean, bright, compressed, high-sheen

  • Gritty: edge, saturation, aggressive transients, rawness

  • Weird-but-pretty: unexpected structure with pleasing tone

Audio study

Study 01 — Glossy
High-sheen polish. Clean edges. Controlled shine.

Study 02 — Gritty
Forward edge. Texture over finish. Raw pressure.

Study 03 — Weird-but-Pretty
Soft chaos. Off-center structure. Beautiful tension.
