Nice soundscapes. Kind of ominous and mysterious.

Trial run after rearranging some electronic doodads on my side desk, most notably the pictured Drone Stack and HypnoDrone from Kaiser Electrical Instruments in lovely Duluth, MN. Recorded at the end of a rare week-long ice event in north Alabama.

Finally got around to connecting several electronic items on my side desk - Kawai R-50e drum machine from around 1995, Fostex X-18 4-track tape recorder from a couple of years earlier than that (I think), a Korg volca keys from 2021, and a handful…

I enjoyed the Tension 2 Foghorn the most. It feels like - suspense.

Used Hainbach's excellent Landfill Totems VST for these noisy ruminations. Also had some samples from an LP recorded by a local high school band nearly 40 years ago, but I re-rendered this version without those samples, just in case... Kevin…

You group of investigators discover a secret door in the basement that opens into a rough hewn passage. You follow it for about sixty feel before you hear ...roll a samity check.. You wander aimlessly into the warm yellow glow of the chamber beyond. Your only reason for living is to follow the intoxicating music coming from the portal... aaaaand that's a wrap on the campaign. :)

When I used to work third shift at Kinko's, I'd sometimes leave the weather radio on, and the automated voice and cadence (though different now from the one 20+ years ago) still has a comforting tinge of nostalgia. I have a weather radio on my…

Love it. There's an album out there somewhere of these kinds of weather sound bites mixed in with cheesy commercials for adult chat lines; it's called 1-900-WEATHER, and it's golden. -Lee

More MIDI. Janky note transitions and too short, but I'm satisfied with the general mood.

The name itself is BRILLIANT! Creates a mood that lets you know what to expect.

This one's mostly MIDI clips in the Superior Drummer 3 and EZKeys plugins in Reaper. I fumbled along on my new MIDI keyboard controller to add the bass part using a sound from SampleTank. Pretty happy with it except for the abrupt end of the last…

Yep, AMUC, that's the sound of a cat running the length of the house and back in about 3 seconds. :)

I take it the hurried part in the middle is when the cat suddenly decided "I need to be somewhere else like RIGHT NOW", and scampered off at light speed.

The happiest-sounding thing I've ever recorded, as far as I can remember. Played on my new (at the time) acoustic guitar, upright bass, and thrift-store student-model bells.

LOL, The title implies that this could be played during the ending credits of Killer Clowns.

Compliments some Metallica works.

Acoustic guitar, bowed psaltery, and various percussion. It took longer to tune the psaltery than to stumble through 3-4 takes of the simplistic melody.

I like it, possibly something from an old Western movie or early 20th century era.

Built from 4 measures of sheet music appearing in the issue of Fortean Times used for inspiration. Created in FL Studio.

Possibly another track from the Killer Clowns remake, a scene with unsuspecting teens goofing around in a playground.

Mandolin, acoustic guitar, and 5-string electric bass. Obviously, my guitar strumming cannot keep up with my mandolin picking.

I like it, can't say I would put it any particular classification.

Programmed drums, baritone guitar, and 6-string electric. Kinda boring, but it's only a minute and a half. :)

Another track from the Killer Clowns remake soundtrack.

Parametric plugin drums, plus 5-string bass and Squier Strat copy. Might have recorded an acoustic guitar track as well, but it didn't work as well as the electric track, and the "song" sounded too busy with both.

It gives me the impression of a reggae tune to some degree.

Parametric plugin drums plus guitar and bass. Clearly remember watching the rare Alabama snow fall into the light from our front porch, right under the double windows in my office/studio. The image has nothing to do with the track or the title…

The snow fall is a diversion of your attention from the title of this tract.lol

Soundtrack for the remake of Killer Clowns from Outer Space?

Background sounds = microphone into guitar pedal board with plenty of delay.

It could be used in a horror movie soundtrack. It does have that creepy sound that gives you that weird feeling.
