sunburns by s.lyre

We asked s.lyre if he’d want to make his 1,000,000th Splice pack for Noise Honey. He said yes. Then made three more before we finished this sentence.

Here we are…sunburns is a collective of samples crafted by s.lyre exploring the full spectrum of bedroom pop, indie lo-fi and DIY beats. Expect to find dusty drums, hazy melodics, laid back vocals and warped keys. This pack drifts between dreamy beat tape moods and laid-back indie grooves. Carefully made and crafted for the bedroom producer in mind, sunburns is a sonic love letter to moments that linger.

s.lyre is a UK-based producer whose sonic explorations bridge the realms of texture, experimentation, and collage. With a background that spans from early piano lessons to music tech studies across continents, s.lyre crafts compositions that begin with familiar foundations—like guitar or keys progressions—before evolving into layered, re-sampled soundscapes. Their work is characterized by a blend of analog warmth and digital manipulation, often incorporating elements captured outside the DAW, such as voice memos or cassette recordings. As a seasoned veteran in sample pack production, s.lyre brings a deep sensitivity to timbre, a love of imperfection, and a constant reimagining of the past to their creations. ​
