About

Welcome to the audio journal of Herb Roberts.

Basically I love music of all forms and fashions.

Through this lead to tinkering with audio and after a long pause i picked it up again this time digitally and has grown. it helps me in life as well as internally.

It has given me the confindence to share with all 3 of you ;-) but i dont care it helps ,me over my own silly embessments

For the most part, day-to-day life is steady—but when navigating the unfamiliar or processing heavy, complex moments, conventional words can fall short. As someone with AuDHD, and alexithymia as part of that , I don't let those labels define who I am. Instead, I use sound as a creative bridge.

This is early days in how I reflect on moments, experiences, and myself. I hope to develop this over time. Please feel free to message me if you'd like to hear more about the stories behind the music; I am actively learning to express myself more coherently after struggling to do so for a long time. Developing that understanding doesn't change the man anyone knows—I'm still here, just approaching things with far more honesty now, and that's a good thing.

Listening to real music of any genre helps me get in touch with my emotions , express the things i cant say , find difficult or accentuate the things i can.

I navigate the world with my senses and emotions, a very honest way of living but not for some and although very very adaptable these masks can only stay in place for so long.

knowing when im wearing them helps me switch , learning when i am is the hard part and takes time.

The more i learn about myself the barriers, connecting my mind and body as interoception and alexithymia annoyingly block those signals. But knowing how to navigate things instead makes me a happy functioning person.

I also think its fair i learn from others and when my behaviour affects their well being is important to me.

That's just being Human , I am just not always able to distinguish between what is said and the unspoken languages, its very confusing when someone is saying one thing but the body is saying something else, because my body does it to me.

These mixes are narrative audio journeys: blending music, texture, dialogue, and spoken journal entries to explore real moments of tension, resilience, dark humor, and resolution.

Or its just a mix for fun - they are all fun just some thought more than others a bit like life.

Recorded as direct, continuous live takes with the raw edges and human slips left intact.
