One of four tracks I did for the August 2009 24 hour challenge. This was the last track I did, and it shows.

I was pretty tired after finishing 3am chill, and had to mess round for ages mangling loops and trying out different things before getting even slightly inspired. The tempo drops represent me almost falling asleep while doing this.

I second that, this is my favorite of yours...the beat is cool!

i like when u slow the beat around 1:35 and then immediately speed it up...very nice vibe man!

This is such a great 24 album - I can't believe I didn't fave it all last year!!!! What was I thinking? I guess I was knackered! Hearing it properly now, with some distance from the madness, it's tight, clever, classy, and cohesive. Just so cool!

This definitely makes for a good outro. Nice work!

@small.cat drums could probably do with some tweaking and variety, my creativity was spent at this point :) Have left as is so I can compare like for like the next 24 I do. Thanks for listening!

i can feel the vibe of wanting to go to bed, especially in the bpm-changes. i think the drums are a bit loud and present(could also be my system - listening on laptop now) and pretty monotonous.

the tempi changes are genius!

Thanks for the comments everyone! Glad people have liked this because I nearly couldn't stand it when I finished it. It was so much effort to get it done at that time in the morning. It's funny that now that people others have listened and found something in the track I can go back and listen less critically.

This is so clever! And you captured the madness of 24 perfectly! I wanna go to bed too.
