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!!

Awesome piece you've made here. So much in it but all blended superbly. I especially love the voices towards the end.

Oh yeah, liked this a lot.

Really enjoyed this piece.

Well you were wondering yesterday how it would come together and I can tell you, it came together great! An amazing effort, bravo!

Half way through and, so far, this has been quite a trip. I love how you have blended ambience and anti-ambience without a huge explosion! It's quite freaky to be surrounded by heavy grinding guitars and know that, just moments ago, I was bathing in a smooth still pond.

Beautiful playing and something reminiscent of Glu about the birdsong & engine noise which works really well here. Kudos!

Full of desolation and dark overtones. Beautiful.

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.

You may be surprised to hear it, but I really like this one!

Beautiful.

Strange and understated, I really love this.

Cool sound. More gritty bass which we like :)

Very much. I'd say time well spent. The percussion has a really crisp snap to it that I love (wish I could figure that trick out myself) and everything layers well and sounds great. Kudos!

Like this one a lot, it's got a haunting quality to it.

You asked for criticism but I can't give you any. I can only echo dAb and Sister's comments; this is great.

Thanks again for all the kind words. I think the next piece will be very largely based on vocals, if I can get some more female voices to balance things out!

Love your sound.

You're having wayyyy too much fun here :)

I think the two of you should be congratulated, then taken into care :)

Ah the infamous!
