Doug Loch’s “Dark Storm” – A Hypnotic Soundscape in Three Flavors

Classically trained pianist, guitarist, percussionist, and seasoned DJ, Doug Loch builds immersive worlds. With Dark Storm, he invites listeners on a slow-burning, hypnotic voyage where rhythm and emotion fuse in a kind of cosmic introspection.

Written in a surge of inspiration that draws equally on years in conservatories and late-night club sets, Dark Storm envelops the listener in an atmospheric haze: cinematic synth washes, deep progressive house textures, and elegantly shifting harmonies that move between major and minor like a restless, stormy sky. The track pulses with subtle psychedelic tension, its slow, hypnotic beat pulling you gently out of time and into a state of weightless surrender.

Dark Storm is presented as a three-part opus—each version exploring a different perspective on the same emotional landscape. Together, they form a small suite designed for both introspection and the dancefloor, a space to let go and simply feel.

For Doug, it marks a creative rebirth after leaving the legal world in 2023—a return to roots but also a liberation. It’s music meant to be felt as much as heard, crafted with care, experience, and a refusal to follow any rule except his own.

Doug Loch reimagines them with grace, groove, and a storm that prefers to whisper before it roars.

Press play, and lose yourself.
