~C'est magnifique, mais ce n'est pas la guerre~
In fact, russians thought that the British cavalry were drunk (and think so still), which slightly improved the reputation of the British cavalry for the rest of the war.
Something I've been listening to this morning on repeat so I thought I would record and share it.
At heart it's two instances of the Morpheus metallophone instrument layered together with some nice verb and a bit of compression.

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…
Another one from my ambient crackpot series.
This features two instances of my new instrument the Novaphone 340 Imperial. A grand name for a grand instrument (Xylo just didn't do it justice).
The first Novaphone is playing three samples…
A micro-tonal piece made using one instance of the Novaphone 340 ("Imperial") playing 3 piano samples from SoundIron's "Emotional Piano 2.0".

Yeah, I can see why MTC felt the cops were after him. It does sound like that in places. I like the footsteps, that's an interesting addition.
Oh, is it over ......

From the startling first note I imagined this accompanying a video of old, sunken shipwrecks
covered in anenomes with sharks weaving in and out!
That's because I have just been looking at some stunning photos of such. Perfect for it!

I would have added: as a result of sound pierced through and through, and go somewhere further on. I turned it on full blast in the studio and seems distant neighbors nervous. I hope they were worried about the meaning of life, as I do now. Here it is - The Result, Matt.

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 :)

Listened many times. Still haven't thought of anything to say. So I'll just leave it at: Kilroy was here.
I see icicles with the ends dripping. All lovely, crispy clean and sparkly. Very nice, Bags!
Great mix of very cool sounds.
very nice.
@igor: words fail me :) @sister: thank you :)
Lovely tones.
At heart it's a Tibetan, lost in mantras, is not seeking to escape because he did not need it anymore. He is in himself, completed. ~The Long Now~
Cool and distant, :)
Following on from Sirens, good use of space and delicate sounds, haunting.
Chilling and atmospheric, nice.
@Bethan: thanks... my imagery was of drifting far out on the edge of the solar system. A very similar feel... down in the inky depths.

Nice mix mate very cool.
Wind, cold wind right here, with echoes of nothingness - that's where the trick, but not "filtering", Matt, even if you... I think so.

Whatever he said, it works for me.
Sounds like the cops are after me, kept looking over my shoulder ;)

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!
