I wonder how these would sound with my style of old rock and roll? No pun intended.

nice...

great stuff

ZOMBIE MILKMAN!

:)

diggin the vibes very chill

Go away for a little while and look what happens. Well done indeed.

Thank you so much folks for your comments, they're very encouraging!

First let me say that this is wonderful, especially for someone who keeps claiming that things "are a mystery to me". :) When it comes to song form, I'd say it's a big fat "it depends". Probably most of the time, you would want one section to lead into another via some... thread? So this could mean anything from like a chord progression, a melody, lyrical content, even instrumentation I'd think. But then again, you may also find that you can get the emotional impact you want by having an abrupt change from one section to another. It all depends, eh. :) That said, I think you did a fine job on the transitions between verse and chorus on this piece. They're different enough that they sound like independent sections, yet lead well from one to another. As for harmony, I want to say that it was Aaron Copland who said something pithy along the lines of "There's no such thing as dissonance - it just means you haven't heard enough of it." Personally, I feel like the chord/melody at about :45 and 1:28 are a little too clashy for my tastes. Though it's such a blip in the grand scheme of the song and not all that noticeable, even for someone who's looking for it. I'd say you have a good ear for picking the right patches and effects to make a piece really gel as a whole. And I'm impressed because it sounds like you're really progressing with each new piece you release. Keep 'em coming!

I'm really digging all the layers and melodies. The rhythm section moves very nicely too. Loving where your music has been going over the past several months.

How very inventive of you. Nice track!

yes, where is Michael, my talking car?

Knightrider and Abba!

Nice one mate this is cool and thanks for your recent comments

ca 3:00, nice break, breath!

Damn fine or my name isn't Kintekobo - The wolf with a dressing up box!

Nice, I'm ready to rally.

I'd love to hear you do more with this- cool beat

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 ;-)

really like this song. reminds me of a similar message I was working on too. check it out if you get a sec, I'd be curious what you think. Nice beats. http://alonetone.com/grandelement/tracks/stay-in-union

I feel like I'm aloft and tumbling wildly across vistas of 80's virtual reality grids as I'm listening to this like Tron meets a bad case of sunstroke. Nice use of pitch.

Cool track.

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

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!

Thanks Len. Looks like I have a lot of your uploads to catch up on!

Hmmm listening in headphones there's very little movement which creates a disappointingly static impression. Something to work on.

Thanks guys, inebriated waveforms could be said to be the speciality of the house!

This does have a Sci-fi feel to it. I think it fits right in with Voyager-1 leaving our solar system.

Why thank you all, glad you like :)

Think maybe we should do an extended version one day :)

Ah that last comment was from me, didn't notice I wasn't logged in.

Like it.

Great drone, love the percussion, cool track!

I love the music and tone of this one. The way the opening draws you in, the tension of the strings, and the rising, sucking, synth almost like someone whistling across a wasteland. Yet the strings bring you back! The whole thing is more than the sum of its parts.

Drama is clearly good for you :)

That was really good Steve. One strangeness: the track is listed as being 6:16 long but stops (seemingly naturally) at 5:52.

That was awesome guys.

Has a feeling of being in between places, like looking out of the window on a long train journey. I think the drums work quite well. Good stuff, welcome back :)

I agree it's a bit shrill in places. This track is actually one of the few times I've thought I shouldn't just publish but should polish. I often struggle with this feeling and - as with this track - lose.

Thanks for the positive thoughts. I'm getting some odd distortions on playing here this morning that I didn't notice in the original (esp. since this piece doesn't play "hot"). They're not supposed to be there. Odd.
