I frequently go on training skates on a beach front trail. The parking lot is just off of a major highway bridge (the Burlington Skyway for those that know it). It's always an interesting sound there...

Excellent. The 52 seconds somehow managed to not get redundant as it was transformed into 14min38sec. This captivated my attention all the way through to the end. Very Clever MMI.

Well... what do you say?
I think you have made something very beautiful and involving. I love the way that, at the beginning (especially but also, to a degree, throughout the piece), the whole thing moves as if riding waves.
The sounds are interesting but seem to blend quite seamlessly, I think the arrangement is very good. I particularly like the use of resonation, I think it creates a great ambience towards the end of the track.
I really wasn't ready for it to end.

Interesting to hear 52 seconds turned into nearly 15 minutes of grooving ambience with a semi-industrial feel. Enjoyed that groove kicking in around 5 minutes in or so, too.
Love it! I especially like the buildup before the "outro" part. Very cool. (I can give you the stems for each track if you really wanna mess with levels or change other things around, but I do think it sounds pretty good!)
Gurgling, bubbling, churning.
This is the last track of the March 2010 24 hour challenge.
The process...
- find some interesting synth sounds (have collected many)
- work out some basic chords
- do some filtering
- add two tracks of e-bow…

MMi wrote the song. I programmed percussion, recorded tabla and vocals.
Is it cool to favourite collabs you're involved in?
Anyway, glu did all the heavy lifting here. It's like Santa Claus visited last night and left the best presents at my house!
This is quite an old track that got abandoned because I didn't feel it was right or going anywhere.
But listening to it in iTunes this morning I thought it passed muster. I don't think it has enough variation to justify it's length but it's gently…
This one almost got abandoned, I didn't seem to be getting anywhere with it.
It started as I was looking for a sound for another track (which really isn't getting anywhere) and I came across a chime sound that I thought would be lovely with a…
Never throw anything you've created away.
I've come close and always been happy about keeping stuff later.
As to this track, supercool. Especially when that buzzy thing comes sweeping through. Awesome.
Increasingly I think the music I am making is less about sound design and more about expressing some of the things inside of me that want out. I guess I may be starting to know what I want.
This one started with a beat (using Stylus RMX to…
So far the comments have been about the sounds and their scariness. For me, however, the magic comes from those sounds used with a fairly funky and happy motif. The juxtaposition is very cool. Strange as it sounds, I hear a dub influence (cue you saying WTF?!?)
written, recorded, mixed, and bounced in 30 minutes. Just a brainstorm.
Instrumentation: acoustic guitar, tabla, rattle, tambourine, claps, kick sample.

Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…
more morning underwear recording/remixing sessions.. this one a bit depressing maybe? I recorded a noisy thunderstorm in the morning last week and yesterday recorded guitar played by violin bow. The result is this messy and hopefully evocative…
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…

the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later

beautiful & ditto what everyone else said too!
I'm amazed at what you are able to put together with noise. Loving the rhythm that emerges at 6 minutes or so. Great stuff man!
PS - The rhythm generated at around 10 mins 40-55 is fantastic!
Another surprisingly melodic soundscape! Love those birds especially! This is very clever.
Like it! :)

This is an excellent song.
Nice job! Great sounds!
Oh aye, lovely bass... :)
Fairground of ice!
I would have been listening to this in 1976 late at night with all the lights off right along with my Dark Side of the Moon album. Loved it.
Works for me! Nice
great collab gents. Nice additions. ~Geas

this one is cat approved! he's in my lap diggin these cool sounds.
getting lost in these tunes. very comfortable atmosphere.
Gorgeous album.
Wow, you got some really neat sounds from that guitar. I gotta get one of those ebow thingys.

Beautiful. Haunting. Too short. Love to hear this developed.

this one's going places can't wait to find out where...

woah, multiple movements, all very cool, is that a subtle steel drum I hear?
Very cool and just a teeny bit harmonically challenging. Awesome.
This is one super awesome set.
Weee! We might have to rename the site to frighttone.com
You definitely have something here. But was that ending intentional? Want more.
what glu said... times ten *sits stunned*
You are a master. I am grasshopper.
Ab minor my new favourite key! Well done! Totally fits with my mood at the end of this tiring day...
It's everything you said it would be. Wow.
Genius in 3D. Love the way the bass part sits back in the mix.
I love the twist in your genius.
dark wave ambient wonder
Holy crap this is AWESOME! Yay for alonetone Radio "Songs you haven't heard" for bringing me here.
A thing of beauty. Especially the bow parts :-)
