Amazing mix of sounds mate very cool indeed.

very nice sound space,, the sounds do pan well through my speakers (just got a new set, and this sounds really cool),, i am always impressed by the range for music/sound/feelings found on alonetone,, from my old piano plunking to your spatial symphony,, through the great guitar and vocals,, so much here to enjoy,, anyhow well played

Wow this is unreal mate eerie sounds great track. Thanks for your comments mate.

Love all the different sounds and textures. I sure am a sucker for textured and layered sounds in music! Some really cool 'underwater' sounds! Thanks for your recent comment on my newest song 'The End'.

Stop motion! Stop motion!

Lovely crackles in this one. Tons of wonderful textures.

Well spotted Kirk, yes.

What an experiment! Is that the "all around my hat" sample?

In my hands Loop Shifter is anything but subtle :)

might be a leeetle to experimental for what they want for Ramen, but I liked it! Bethan singing? Really?

The more I hear this, the more inspired I am to do something really sinister.

Billowy. Those sounds layered quite nicely!

great dream ambient

Yeah man. Crunchy!

Chilling and charismatic. Love all the different elements that force unsettling images in to my mind. Dark steps down shiney corridors, naked lightbulbs swinging from decaying ceilings... Okay, maybe I don't "love" that, but I'm definitely impressed by it! I think the Brothers Quay will be after you.

loving the sounds and atmosphere. i gotta listen again.

What a blend dude! Great software!

Sounds like the soundtrack to someone being slowly drugged at a carnival. Very effective! Love the underground gong sound. Deliciously dark!

This is sensational! Permission to download, loop and warble on?

thanks re skree. the thing about noise (for me) is it can be so fun! there's a built-in visceral excitement and the challenge is harnessing it into musical contexts. man, Lao Jia is hypnotizing me!

Well glu nicked all the good stuff with the hint of jazz and Lost Highways references. I can't compete with that! But I enjoyed it none the less :)

Has a certain rawness and grittiness that reminds me of Bukowski's poetry.

Has a melancholy quality to it that I like. What sort of piano is that?

Love this track, more please!

Very nice.

Lovely swirly textures, we like :)

A weeks gap has given me a little more perspective on this track and I've found more to like about it. Also in the light of my next track I can see this as an experiment with a new form. I doubt I'll do anything more with this but I can rest easier about it now ;-)

Thanks for the kind words folks, much appreciated :)

Love the dark, metallic, and lost textures you got going on here.

Awesome, awesome, awesome. In the days since I uploaded it I have come to a much greater appreciation of old Harry but you take it to another level. I especially love the way you've blended the resonant sweeps with the harps. Looking forward to future episodes!

This is perfect Sunday morning music, ethereal, floaty, lovely.

No Logic 9 yet (only a matter of time though I think) but I liked this very much.

Took a few hours to make. For example a lot of fades are hand drawn automation and the whole thing is 540 bars long so that took a while even though I can copy & paste automation data in Logic. The 05:00 mark I went a bit mad with the filter resonance. I have a version where I clean that up a little and it sounds better I think. I might replace the online version.

Well you know on further listening I do find things to like in this. I'm inclined to give the process another go (maybe with a slightly shorter time frame) and think more about structure. Thanks again for your comments folks.

Hi Kirk. Thanks... I do have a crazy selection of effects these days which is responsible for a lot of the sonic mangling I can do. Over the next year or so I'd like to get more selective and more competent about the results :) I also think Yelyah's onto something. This might actually be a "track" if it had more structure. As it is the micro-structure created by automation isn't enough. Lots of things to work on! Thanks again. m/

Yelyah, thank you for the encouraging words. You're right that I have a pretty unsophisticated approach to what a "song" is. It's a facet I've begun to notice in everything I have done so far, that it is structurally uninteresting. Guess I need to figure out how to take the next step! Thanks again. m/

After several listens my only regret is that I can only favourite this track once :)

Bethan you're very kind to even attempt to listen to this! The kick drum that runs through the track is the source of most of the sounds, just mangled, tortured, and beat into shapes & frequencies kick drums were never meant to reach.

What can I say? This is beautiful and I think I shall listen to the whole thing all over again :)

I'm at 15:00 and it's been great so far.
