All of these demo songs are composed and produced by Patrick Fridh aka Bitley™ using Propellerhead Reason. These tracks are hosted on SoundCloud and requires an Adobe Flash Player plugin (and a decent sound card) to play back properly. SoundCloud works on iPhone / iPad too without plugins (also available as a free app on AppStore for Mac, iPhone & iPad).
You can also find all demos here: http://soundcloud.com/bitleytm & all videos are here: http://youtube.com/bitleytm – lots of stuff to delve into!

Feel free to add your tracks (with Bitley sounds) to the group.
Even more Bitley™ music
I have released some albums on BandCamp also. First out a compilation called Friendly. It contains 17 tracks, and can be streamed or downloaded, if purchased. The album costs $2 “or more”, so if you want to contribute, you’re most welcome. Friendly – an album on BandCamp. The second release is an old hardware project built using an Ensoniq ESQ 1 as sound source & sequencer, controlling itself and a JV-1080, a TX81Z and a VZ8M module. THE KFK – 1 – album on bandcamp. Enjoy!
I also enjoy remixing. Check out my remixes on Realworld Remixed. Choose the “Search” function and enter the word “bitley” in the first field. I have also remixed acts like Neurobash, Sophie Rimheden, Håkan Lidbo, Cryo & Checkpoint Charlie, Compute and some others. I also added some remixes on Sony’s Acid Planet, for Tatu and Beth Hirsch.

Thanks a lot Gunther!
Did you find us through a new issue of Keys Magazine or isn’t it out yet? Watch out for a review of the refill there.
Best,
Patrick

Dude,
I just left a comment for you on the PHeads forum. YOU ARE MY COMPLETE FUCKING HERO!!!!!! Fairlight? Oberheim? I am a child of the 80′s. As I commented in the PHeads forum, in 1985 I was a Senior in High School in California. A friend of mine turned me onto Scritti, and it was all over. My world had been changed forever. Then I heard Geddy Lee of Rush use an Oberheim, and I still haven’t recovered.
Your taste in synths is impeccable. I am unfortunately unemployed at the moment, but I’m supposed to be selling some stuff off of CraigsList tomorrow, and if I do, Fairlight Platinum IS MINE!!!!!!!
Thanks again for all of your hard work. You brightened my day!
-Laurence

Oh, and Pat? I double, triple, QUADRUPLE DOG DARE YOU to do the same thing with a Synclavier. My head would explode, and the rest of me would merely spontaneously combust
