Well done. I don't really have any suggestions about structure except to say don't get too hung up on it :-) I kind of think that the way this ebbs and flows is all the structure it needs.

@NebulonicAlchemy: I've no recollection of the conversation you're talking about. I use a lot of effects in Live and Logic so it doesn't sound like me. My point is about creating an arrangement where there is more control over sonic density. Particularly intense points should not be clustered together or they become overwhelming. I think the issue is with taking a single, long, piece of audio and trying to treat give it a different structure.

Your efforts to create space are interesting. I'm not sure I comprehend exactly what you mean. I believe you once said you dont' like using efx which comes with audio editing/recording sofware. Maybe this a route you may want to take?

This is full of great sounds mate very cool.

Wild sounds ... Great mix

ok....I think I did see that.

If you read my post in that thread I talked about one of my tracks being downloaded over & over again by Chinese spammers/spambots. This is that track.

wildgease and I were talking about play counts...he said he posts links to his songs on other pages...did you do that for this one? On what pages did you put the link for this song?

Reminds me of the voice of Shodan, the AI in the System Shock series of computer games. :)

I can definitely hear the Dune soundtrack in this. Nice work on the Reaktor instrument! It'll be interesting to hear what else you end up doing with it.

I like it....very...interesting..music that creates itself...in a way...

You should develop some iPhone/Pod apps like this. Cool.

The samples were not carefully chosen just a few random snippets I had lying around and some vocal samples I've been collecting for another project. I just needed something to feed into it.

i like the samples u used. What are they from??

I seriously think this could lead to not so silly things. Have you ever heard of the tribe of people...from thousands of years ago, who knew the EXACT orbital patterns of stars and planets they couldn't even see? Maybe this too..like MMI said...is a happy accident?

The idea came to me in a conversation as a kind of silly thing to do. I was thinking about how to mess with samples and the idea of slicing them and trigger them by collisions just popped into my head. At the moment the energy levels are fixed. One of the things to complete the model is for collisions to drain energy. Then I plan to add "warming" that is a constant influx of energy which will be controllable. Beyond that I really want to play with having the collision sequencer drive other things like a bank of oscillators. I'm also considering how it could sensibly output MIDI.

I was thinking that more outside variables would be interesting. I like the gravity well idea. So where did you get the idea for this? And...do energy levels change when there is a collision?

Loving your work with vox!

Great stuff mate this is very cool.

Thanks folks, your comments made me smile :)

Fun, I love messing around like this myself. MIDI is a different kind of musical power and, combined with your talents for playing with real instruments... well I look forward to the mayhem to come :)

Took your advice and my ears are now bleeding but happy :)

I for one am grateful for our impending roasting if it inspires you to make such music :)

Enjoyed this very much Erik. Great beat and so many interesting sounds in there.

This is a very odd approach to music.

If they do another remake of War of the Worlds I'm putting your name down for the soundtrack.

Ah, love this.. especially the change just after the 2:00 mark. It seems that, in the right circumstances, schmalz can be a good thing :)

Another sweet track. I hope it won't be too long before you have some more stuff to upload!

I think it's awesome that I have no clue what your "tech" means. Doesn't stop me loving the sound :)

Not a rock fan here but I enjoyed this very much!

Beautiful.

Absolutely love the sound you've created here.

Man I'd love to come here you play this sort of stuff. Fabulous.

I liked it. There's something pleasing about the tension between the lackadaisical vocal style and the distortion on the beats.

Bizarre and terrific. I'd have had no clue what it was if you hadn't said. Great sample. What were you playing it through?

Boy that was great, lovely ambience.

I like it.

Melancholy and touching.

Beautiful. Again the piano is also lovely.
