Hi Kirk.
Thanks... I do have a crazy selection of effects these days which is responsible for a lot of the sonic mangling I can do. Over the next year or so I'd like to get more selective and more competent about the results :)
I also think Yelyah's onto something. This might actually be a "track" if it had more structure. As it is the micro-structure created by automation isn't enough.
Lots of things to work on!
Thanks again.

OK- I'll admit I didn't listen to the whole thing, but I did hear about 6 minutes of it and it's interesting stuff! If I knew a tithe of what you do about manipulating sounds in software I'd be a league ahead of where I am!!

Yelyah, thank you for the encouraging words.
You're right that I have a pretty unsophisticated approach to what a "song" is. It's a facet I've begun to notice in everything I have done so far, that it is structurally uninteresting.
Guess I need to figure out how to take the next step!
Thanks again.

I listened to the full 24. :)
I dig what you've done here and would definitely call this music and not noise. I would like to see you create some separate sections. Like, a breakdown for instance, where you go for something totally different rhythmically before returning to the original idea.
Keep on experimenting! :)

Bethan you're very kind to even attempt to listen to this!
The kick drum that runs through the track is the source of most of the sounds, just mangled, tortured, and beat into shapes & frequencies kick drums were never meant to reach.

This is quite an old track that got abandoned because I didn't feel it was right or going anywhere.
But listening to it in iTunes this morning I thought it passed muster. I don't think it has enough variation to justify it's length but it's gently…

Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.

I'm learning to play piano and my teacher has given me 'Old Joe Clarkes Boogie' to play. For 2 weeks it has kicked my ass. But I'm getting to grips with it now and this is my revenge!
The musical parts were recording using my Kurzweil SP3X…

I needed 2m02 to finish the album. I was completely spent and without a drop of creative juice left. Just noodling with an Omnisphere patch when one of my cats, Mississippi, jumped on my keyboard and proceeded to walk up and down and sit on various…
So this track was purely for the fun of it. I was messing about in Omnisphere and came across this wonderful sound that reminded me of the guild highliners in Dune.
I built a beat around in using Stylus, Ricochet, and Dubstation. Then added more…

Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.
This is the recording of my performance of Einaudi's 'I due fuimi' at the Littlewick Green church hall as part of the Cherry Garden Music winter concert.
It was played on a seemingly quite old Steinway concert grand. I aim to find out more…
This is from years ago, living in santa fe.
I loved driving around in my little 1980s toyota corolla and listening to cassettes. I loved the way they sounded.
So I took a piano song I was working on, recorded it to cassette, dragged mic…
Listening again and I actually really love the lo-fi almost accidental feel to this recording. Work of art. My one regret is that I can't double-favourite it.
With Big Time Operator, who originally uploaded his awesome music with the offer that anyone can add vocals...too good to miss! Love this music, and had loads of fun wailing. Thanks Chris!
Played on BBC Radio Introducing. :)

Thanks for the kind words both. Chris it is a pretty good idea but I can't take any credit for that, I got it from Pendle @ SoundDust. He uses it to build his Plastic Ghost Piano and I thought it sounded like something cool to play with.
No rhyme, no reason, just a colony of mournful machines piping their clangorous, grinding sonorisms at each other across an barren electronic landscape.
This will also be some of the source material that I will process later into something…
Has the feel of drifting effortlessly through different spaces. I like the sparseness and the use of a range of sounds. Geosonics looks like a great source material.

Full of fun, rhythm and interesting sounds. Trying to work out what some of them are, very cool!
glu: :)
yeah, it feels feminine, artificial, and something else.. i'll let you know when I can place my finger on it... if it lets me...
still hiding.
wonderful use of textures and very cinematic as others have said :)
Love the blending going on in this one. And what a title! :)
man i really dig this one. The sounds and mood you achieved here are just stellar.
I caught this groove.
Father, the Sleeper has awakened. I don't know where I went for 4 minutes but it made my hair move. Pretty cool and very creative.
Former South American dictator turned clown? ha! Think I remember reading up on that..sandbagdido?
your music has definitely been going somewhere over the past few releases. This is great dubby sounds.
I just folded space from my shop and found myself sitting in the studio in front of the monitors. Neat track!
oooh this is compatible with my circuitry!!!
A very cool track.
Sounds like a sexy girl robot getting ready for a night out. That sound at the end is her zipping up her silver thigh-highs.

If anything can be very lovely, this is.
I like, especially the part around the 1m mark onwards, nice choice and mix of sounds, and nice outro a little haunting as 2starsho says.
Can you see this?
Lovely sound and beautiful vocals. I especially liked where it sounded like you were self-harmonizing.
Thanks Tess, that’s very kind :-)
I liked this until the voices cut in… then I loved it.

I have no idea why I thought "Edward Lear" and "Ring Modulator" in the same moment. Probably I shouldn't have.
Great track, music and vocals blend well.
Like this.
Interesting variety, works well.
Gets nice and dark around 3:15, I like it.
Love when it really kicks in at ~2:40, great stuff.

Touché Igor :)
This is very sweet.
Hey this is pretty cool, totally trips along.
Oh I do love that guitar sound you got going and you know I like the loopin :)

Nice use of radio noise. Like it.
