Never throw anything you've created away.
I've come close and always been happy about keeping stuff later.
As to this track, supercool. Especially when that buzzy thing comes sweeping through. Awesome.

Increasingly I think the music I am making is less about sound design and more about expressing some of the things inside of me that want out. I guess I may be starting to know what I want.

So far the comments have been about the sounds and their scariness. For me, however, the magic comes from those sounds used with a fairly funky and happy motif. The juxtaposition is very cool. Strange as it sounds, I hear a dub influence (cue you saying WTF?!?)

OK, eeeeasy. Move away from the sharp objects.
...Possibly reserve more intelligent listens/comments until the morning, but suffice to say, I think you probably achieved what you set out to achieve. *scared*

Space Trumpet was an excuse to try out my new plugin "Little Spacey" from Expert Sleepers and also to exercise the Kore sounds from Acoustic Refractions.
MIDI was supplied via IAC from Reaktor using Lazyfish's Spiral sequencer. The project…
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…

Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…

Ooh twinkly and thought-provoking. Makes me think of the ghost of a child following someone and hiding quickly behind corners and in doorways whenever the person being followed turns to look. I hear churchbells too. Haunting!

Having fun (finally) playing around with the riff for this tune by Howling Wolf, which is based on a song by Charley Patton and another by the Mississippi Sheiks and another by Tommy Johnson and so on ...
Had to listen to this twice. Amazing juxtaposition in the intro transforming into something cohesive before brutally ripping itself apart at the end. Powerful and somewhat unsettling!
Wow this is lovely Bruce. I'd really love to get a look at your Max setup and see how you work. Maybe you could do a "producer masterclass" video one day?
Indecision is not always bad, sometimes it even leads to the determination. Or leads to the solution. Or does not lead anywhere (also a kind of solution).

Numbers stations (or number stations) are shortwave radio stations of uncertain origin. They generally broadcast artificially generated voices reading streams of numbers, words, letters (sometimes using a spelling alphabet), tunes or Morse code…
I've used recordings of numbers stations in my own music. I think I'm attracted by the way the content is apparently random and yet deliberate. Some nice menace and dark overtones in this piece, very enjoyable.
This track was my attempted submission for Ramen Music #001. I finally got around to uploading it here.
It was made using several instances of the Max for Live instrument "Loop Shifter" that I played in real-time using my Novation Launchpad…

Recorded in 2009 for the RPM Challenge.
Joe Silence - flying slide guitars, tweaked beatbox, spastic echo torture and toy keyboard mutilation
This was recorded to cassette 4-track and then dumped to DAW for clean-up and mixing.
Despite the fact that boring scientists have proved that did not catch a rainbow, I still believe that it is possible at least to touch its iridescent tail, and then...

This is an older song and hey, you'll finally get to hear me sing badly! This was under my old name Piscean Dream so I couple of you may or may not have heard this before. Thanks for listening!
I am leaving this week for a while but couldnt resist adding as the third collaborator on this excellent track by Keith Landry and Osckilo before I go.
Added some bass,ambient stings, and of course sleigh bell
Hope you guys like it.
See you…

whew, good thing you kept this one. I like the chime.
grimey!
Like it! Especially the beats, halfway through I was thinking of wailing robots echoing through a very large spaceship
And thank you all guys. It's great to get feedback :)
MM: Well ... it hadn't occurred to me but I did just buy my first dub album and listen to it today ... maybe it did influence me.

okay, sandbags, time for a scary clown avatar. this one will make it difficult to turn out the light tonight.
So *that's* what a space trumpet sounds like. I had always wondered.
Like this nice and raw nice one
Hard to pass up a great title like this one. ;) (Excellent use of Augustus Loop, btw...)
*hides*
I never know what to say while I'm listening to this but I have to keep coming back and listen again!

Suspenceful...with ambient and cinematic overtones. One to really get the imagination working.
Atmospheric with a world beauty.
Wow- There should be a film to go with this. I'm not going to see it alone though!! Great sounds
Sounds good here! It turns my sunny green garden into the Outback!!

Brilliant!
Like some kind of cosmic pinball game.

Brings to mind the warding of evil spirits.
Very dark with threatening overtones. I like.

Beautiful. Very moving Igor.

Well spotted Kirk, yes.
In my hands Loop Shifter is anything but subtle :)
Deliciously offbeat.
Like this.
That was quite a slice!
Strange, ethereal, and beautiful. Like finding the end of the rainbow in a carnival full of faded charms.
Rather like this one. Maybe you should sing more often!
That seemed to just fly past... hypnotic!
I like!
Great beat, enjoyed the jam. Wish I could figure improvFriday out it seems like you guys have such fun.
Oh I like this. Very unusual. I'd like to know more.
Great chilled number.
