Well done sir

All aflame for the Buzzaz: A torch relay of Metaphobias. Got it.

Awesome, can't say I've heard anything quite like it. It really sounds like something unfolding or slowly expanding itself.

Listening again to this piece. Boat-tastic.

Halfway through it did feel like it was the intro to something (cue dry ice, big light show, power chord, let's rock... mebbe!)(I think it's the hi-hat that does this to me, it reminds me of a drummer itching to get going) But, for me, it does actually bring itself to a nice conclusion. Didn't really feel like "petering out" at this end.

Oh yeah, gorgeous cello sound.

Don't think I'll ever understand this way of making music - but it do make some nice sounds. Cool track.

Thanks for the kind words folks, gave me a lift :)

Not completely daft ;) Awesome track, up there with anything I've heard from the "big names".

Sweet dreams

this sounds awesome: When the input signal from the filter exceeds the gate-on threshold the sampler plays the loop for that channel. When the incoming signal falls below the gate-off level the loop gets released and decays away. 2 minutes into the track and loving it.

I too love that cello sound. nice track.

Love the cello. Interesting sample and treatment.

Classy piece of experimentation. Musically superb but I wish I understood more of how it was achieved.

Very cool overture.

I quite like it too! You're right in that it sounds like the beginning of something else, but very enjoyable!

EEEEEEeeeeerie!

Thanks for the nice comments my friends. I've been away (for various reasons) from music for some time and this is one of my first few forays back. Trying to recapture my spirit of adventure!

Quite lovely!

nicely done!!

Thank you for the kind words. This track has been interesting for me in that, having felt paralysed for so long, I was in major haste to push it out the door. I didn't stop to think or evaluate, let alone try things different. I just slapped it together and uploaded it. And it is a wild mess. And I think it's very me. I thought I'd listen once then move on. But I've found myself listening to it over and over again. Of the 37 track plays I would guess almost 30 of them are mine. Sister's right in that it has some nice bits around 3m and, for me, especially 5m. If the whole could be as good as those parts I think I'd **really** have something. But where I thought I might be embarrassed at throwing up some half-finished thing instead I've discovered I enjoy this in all it's misshapen beauty. I've started applying the same techniques I used for this in a more deliberate way and I am struggling. Which is great, it feels great to have creative problems again!

Like this one, leaves me wanting more.

Work of art my man, work of art. I humbly salute you.

I sure enjoyed that.

Please come do some gigs in England!

This stuff is great to listen to, lovely warm ambience.

I'm with underwood :)

This piece has a wonderful otherworldliness to it. The beat anchors it to our time & place but it's easy to imagine it being enjoyed by alien ears. Kudos.

After several more listens my enthusiasm for this piece is undiminished. Not to take anything away from the rest of it but the section from 5:00 to 8:21 is as good, interesting, and moving a piece of piano music as I have ever heard. I'd love you to transcribe this piece so I could have a go at playing it and, who knows?, maybe we could duet one day!

Boy do I love this, the music is awesome - just awesome - and I love when you whistle along as you're enjoying different bits. I can imagine doing it myself! Once again AWESOME++

Enjoyed this one very much.

Fab, quite lifted my spirits! :)

Nice one Centurion.

Love this piece Lalo, beautiful.

That was lovely.

Like it.. Go Bunny!

Love this.

Awww who cares if you uploaded this before, it's great. You two play brilliantly together. I'd like to see it on video.

Bravo, superb intro. Love your voice & playing here.

@MannequinRaces: Reaktor is still a great tool for experimenting with sound design and, as a bonus, you get a fantastic range of great instruments and effects. It does require some effort to learn and the program has some issues but it's totally worth it. Thanks for your suggestions about creating space. You're right in that I just went for the first fast panning preset I liked and it is kind of monotonous after a while. When I was working mostly in Logic I used to automate volume a lot which can also create space. But this is something I don't find as natural in Ableton. I think it's a consequence of the Session/Arrangement dichotomy that I'm not as happy with yet. I'm working on something new & again using TMA-2 as one of my sources. I'll see if I can do a better job with it.
