so this song is an old one, one of the first tracks i ever made. it has a long and drawn out beginning and i am not too sure what i think about it (what’s new…). anyways, i figured i may as well upload it, it is jsut sitting around anyways.

i will be releasing several new tracks over this month as i am preparing to release a c.d.

oh…and, have fun in general.

I don't know what it is ... I tend to cringe at birdsong and natural sounds, but ... I really like this, why do I like this ... I think it's somewhere in the way you are working with the loops, the way the spaces between things are linked - "linked", I think that's the word - if it was a drawing it would be about the negative space - and I could say, great use of negative space - also, the way the timbres of the instruments (digital? or otherwise?) are so carefully balanced. The sounds and the shape of the track, all together ... very exciting music.

like a cold or a victim? I am running out of time. How did you know that. Why are you laughing at me! Whoa this song took of when I least expected it to. upbeat and relaxed. like a pounding massage. lots of little cascading elements. i like.

I don't know what to think about it either except I like it! Yes the intro is probebly too long. Some nice ambient sounds though.

i totally appreciate the criticism, and in a way i totally agree with you. as i stated this is an older track, not to mention i lost my hard-drive with the raw recordings :( but, if i had the choice to change things, that would probably be one of the first things i would do.

need more different samples, loops get annoying... still ver good though, thanks.

A menagerie of delicious textures. *Liking this*

That intro (first 2 mins) is bloody eerie. *shiver*

I understand what you are saying in your profile... "and i have been afraid of the fact that it is done for reasons other than the creation of it." I know what you mean...I can't put words to it either. By the wsy..You have a way with words too.

Love the sound efx in the intro. Mixes like this always conjure images..AWESOME how you bring the drums in at 1:51 or so. I for one am glad you decided to share this. Don't change the begginning at all..in my humble opinion anyway. :)

this sounds pretty epic bro. Sounds like a real Akira Yamaoka soundtrack. If I were listening to this and not knowing from who I'd have thought Akira was up to making his own stuff. anyways dunno if that's your intent, but keep up the great work. =D
