This is one track where I can say, without reservation, that I am really happy with how it came out.
I worked up a beat I liked with 3 Stylus RMX parts making good use of chaos and time designer for the breaks.

I've had a bit of a love/hate relationship with this one.
I enjoyed making the beats and think that part came out pretty good but everything after that felt rather haphazard and didn't feel right to me.
I was close to abandoning the track…

Okay I need to say a few things. Please read before listening!
I did not do the 24 hour challenge but I did try and hang around in the chatroom as much as possible with Glu, SisterS, and ChrisM while they battled through it.
At about midnight…

Took a few hours to make. For example a lot of fades are hand drawn automation and the whole thing is 540 bars long so that took a while even though I can copy & paste automation data in Logic.
The 05:00 mark I went a bit mad with the filter resonance. I have a version where I clean that up a little and it sounds better I think. I might replace the online version.

So how long did this take DAMN - an alarm went off just as I started typing LOL - 5 minutes in!
So as i was about to say - this is intriguing and the fade-ins/outs and those watery textures make it fun. It's a long way off my beaten track but still in my jungle ... it's getting to the stage now where I'll have to pick up a guitar ...

I don't have a lot of time this morning but it's definitely time for you to stop being so modest. This totally deserves a more pretentious description. How about (in a deep announcer voice): a post-modern sonic exploration of the contemporary kick drum.

Well you know on further listening I do find things to like in this. I'm inclined to give the process another go (maybe with a slightly shorter time frame) and think more about structure.
Thanks again for your comments folks.

This will maybe sound crazy, but I can hear just adding low drone in places and then a big ominous synth wash over the top. Don't trash it- it's got a lot of possibility!
Otherwise known as the 'opus'. This song was my life for a good year. Left forgotten in the dusty hills of Santa Fe. This is pretty much the A section :)
I wanted to play more directly with noise of various kinds so this piece focuses less on techniques and fancy plugins and more on selection & arrangement of sounds.
I spent many hours going through Reaktor ensembles I've downloaded searching…
Well I *had* intended to try doing something different this week.
So technically I succeeded.
It's solo piano again, but I had to teach my left hand how to play this somewhat syncopated bass line, before I could actually compose against it…
Very nice. With respect to your question I am still very much a beginner with piano but I am being taught Blues and that seems to involve a lot of interesting bass lines. Maybe that might be something to check out?
I was trying to tune my radio into a station I picked up, just for an instant, but I found it hard to keep a lock on it, I kept getting strange interferences.
From what I could hear it sounded like someone sent [MMI](http://alonetone.com/mmi…
I excel at disappearing for long stretches, eh?
I think with this I'm officially committing to doing FAWM.
And R.I.P. my songwriting drought. August 27th, 2009 - February 1st, 2010.
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
How could I not love something made with the sweat of my brow (and for once there really was a lot of sweat!). I enjoyed what you've done arranging the Reichatron output with other parts. This is fun :)
Comments on Mr Sandbags's stuff
Thanks for the kind words folks, much appreciated :)
I think you nailed the breakdown, love when it comes back in. Great tune.
Aggressive.
This interesting and very clever. Most enjoyable!
Great job on this one! Keep it up. :)
See what happens when you start clowning around :D This is really something. I have to listen again.
nice! I like how this one turned out!
Yes- I think you hit the proverbial nail on the freakin' head with this one. Love the beat and that crunchy bass
I do love dancy rhythm. It does it for me!
yeay! love it! you are quite the sound sculptor, amigo.
Digging the glitchy bits and the synths!
what is the bpm for Mr. Palmer?

I'd like to build a song around Mr. Palmer.
love the rhythmic malfunctions. inspiring.
! Um...I can't believe you put a massive disclaimer on this! Incredibly well played, Sandbags!

I am a sucker for good solo piano, this is lovely.
My thanks to all those who contributed vocals to this track: GCD, Sudara, Marlena, MMI, La Savage, Robot Molly, Matt Savigear, Wildgeas, and me!

Hopefully Reichatron will go live early next week. I can't upload it to the UL myself as it's too big, but NI have offered to do it.
This is wonderfully dark and beautiful. I think it would be quite something to hear it live!
I don't know from chord progressions but it sounds pretty good to me!
I don't see what needs re-recording but you know best. Really good, can't believe how quickly 9:20 slipped by :)
Love this, I can't quite put my finger on it, but it has a wistful quality that I found very moving.
Sounds like I am going to enjoy your RPM album a lot!
Beautiful! Not wasting any time getting started are you? :-)
Fab playing you guys, I could listen to this for hours.
Beautiful.
I love it, warts and all. Maybe especially for the warts :)
Wonderful sound. More experiments to come?
That was beautiful.
Was that your Boss GT-10 at work? Very dark and brooding.

Lovely, perfect for a still, frosty, night.
Love this one, lovely sounds.
Well, I would never have expected to enjoy this - not the kind of thing I would normally listen to at all - but I did. Great stuff!
