In a world of cookie-cutter beats, Confused Duck waddles to his own rhythm with the release of his debut single, Techno Makes Me Feel. This pulsating techno-dance track is more than just a song, it’s a lifeline, a creative outlet, and a bold step for a self-taught artist who’s as unique as his pipe-smoking, cowboy-hat-wearing duck persona.
Techno Makes Me Feel is a solo endeavour born from Confused Duck’s love for dance music and his personal journey with mental health challenges. Inspired by the genre’s infectious energy, he crafted this track as a therapeutic escape, pouring heart and soul into every beat. With no formal training and only music production software as his guide, he navigated a long, experimental process to create a track that’s raw, real, and ready to move listeners.
Meet David, the 39-year-old behind Confused Duck, a small-town maverick with a keyboard and a dream. Known locally as the guy who doesn’t quite fit in, think cowboy hat, pipe, and a refusal to follow the crowd, he’s embraced his nickname, The Confused Duck, with pride. His artwork, featuring a dapper duck mirroring his style, captures his quirky spirit. Music became his refuge after picking up a cheap keyboard to cope with mental health struggles, recommended as a creative outlet. When the nights get tough, he dives into music, finding solace in its rhythms. Supported by his wife and two children, he’s taken a leap into the music world, learning daily despite his self-described amateur status. I’m a bit nervous about the attention, he admits, preferring to stay in the shadows while letting his music shine.
