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?

I'm not quite sure where I was going with this. I love the Abaska Bong sound and was trying to pair it with something complementary. After going through some truly weird combinations I came up with this.

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?
Another slice of Reaktor based weirdness from the particle collider ensemble I am tentatively naming TMA-2.
You can't tell from how it sounds I guess but the latest development is that particle energy now governs velocity, i.e. more energetic…
This is made with a very experimental Reaktor instrument I am building.
It uses a very simple particle collision model with 64 particles in a 100x100 box. When two particles collide they trigger a sampler to play a slice of either of two samples…
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.

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 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?

A lonely, slow, tune... with a forlorn and sometimes tense distorted guitar (actually my bass). Good music to listen to as you zone out and stare into space.
Rhythmic groove with bass and "guitars". In addition to the obvious bass track, the two distorted "guitar" tracks are actually also basses, EQ'ed and altered with various effects to sound less bassy and more guitary.
Melodic, peaceful, and trance-inducing instrumental. Used a synth clav as the underlying thematic instrument, then layered a few other things on top. The "guitar" counter-melody at the end is me playing a bass in the upper registers.
A track that I put on hold for the RPM Challenge.
Of course, now I can't really remember where I was going with it... but to have used it in the challenge would have been cheating.
What I do remember was that I had just discovered and fallen…
An old time fiddle tune without the fiddle, or the tune, really, so the vocal has to carry it, and it has that lovely raw propulsion. Written and recorded in an hour.
I'm not sure if this is rockabilly or late 40s jump R'n'B. Dance music though. I had fun with the lyrics and the backing vocals.
This is now a tidied up version 18/3/09
A happy song about being left by your no-good spouse. There's a word for the attitude in this song but I can't think of it right now ...
this is now a tidied up version 18/3/09
This has been something that has been struggling to get out for a while. I finally feel comfortable enough playing it to have pressed record...
Boring technical details:
DADGAD tuning
two improvised tracks, GT-10 Studio Acoustic Guitar preset…
A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).
Old Conor Higgins…
That didn't stop her.
Main vocals/bleeps by Shreya, keys and backing vocals by me. Actually, my baby daughter was in my arms while I was doing those vocals and she started crying. Even though I cropped that part, I didn't use any noise reduction…
Another experiment.
Today Eos was released. In trying it out, I found 7 random synth clips in my library (not entirely random but they might as well have been). These are fed for somewhat random durations and order through 4 Eos reverbs in…

It is a promise to people to get energized from me to do what they need to do. We can all share to…
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…

and you didn't even have to spend the night to get it.
another one from the morning sessions...
First attempt at making something with the demo version of live 8 suite and some of the sample tutorials. Just the first third or so of a whole track really. It's the first thing I haven't wanted to delete straight away so I want to put it somewhere…

This is full of great sounds mate very cool.
Wild sounds ... Great mix
ok....I think I did see that.

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

I like it....very...interesting..music that creates itself...in a way...
You should develop some iPhone/Pod apps like this. Cool.

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

Great stuff mate this is very cool.

Man I love your stuff. It's atmospheric, nice timbres, great beat. Hope you've got more to upload!
Good music to make you want to zone out and stare into space :)
Love this one.
Lovely.
I'm glad you decided to release this anyway because it's lovely. I'm getting used to being eased into my day by a new track from you. Keep it up! :)
Weird and wonderful. I'm enjoying your RPM album which has been a trip so far :)
An hour well spent :)
I really love these ditty's.
Kind of the anti-blues ;-) Love it!
A nice way to slide into Monday morning.
Love it.
Strange and dark. I love it :)
Great, laid back, sound.
Have to give you much kudos for working out how to make 4 reverbs sound good :)
That was great!
Love the dreamy quality and the use of BigSeq2. How did you come up with the notion of using 4 Eos in series?
Really enjoyed this one :)
Thanks for the kind words folks :)
There is something truly awesome about a track about and from making coffee :)
I enjoyed it :)
