~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.

~ Was there a man dismay'd? Not tho' the soldier knew Some one had blunder'd ~

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.

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!

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.

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.

Whatever he said, it works for me.

Sounds like the cops are after me, kept looking over my shoulder ;)

Chilled. Like it.

Very cool, loved the feel of this track.

Thank you for all the kind words. @MMI: By 'mess' i refer to what I perceive as a lack of underlying structure combined with over-density. I guess I wasn't so much being pejorative about my work (although given past comments I've made I can understand why that conclusion might be reached) so much as indicating that I am aiming towards something more deliberate, more structured, and sparser. Of course whether I get there, or somewhere totally different, is quite another matter :)

nebulonicalchemy: that's a greatquestion. Glitchiness is something that is easy to understand when you already know and quite hard to describe otherwise. But here goes: A glitch is usually a minor malfunction in a system where something doesn't work quite right (but isn't a complete meltdown). So in audio terms is might be described as something that doesn't sound right, in the context of the original sound, for a brief period. The Finger is a MIDI driven effect unit that provides a number of effects suitable for creating audio glitches for example short loops, pitch shifting, comb filters, scratches and so on. The untreated audio is fed through The Finger and, when it receives appropriate MIDI, it applies an effect but only for so long as the MIDI note is being played. So you get "audio glitches" interrupting the normal playback of the piece. This piece is so convoluted that it's hard to hear a clear separation between glitch and non-glitch. I'll try and do something about that in the next piece.

This one turned out awesome.. it all fit together beautifully in the end :)

What a cool, eclectic, mix. Liked this one, especially the sound of the piano running through it and counterpointing the glitchiness.

Enjoyed this. What time signature are you experimenting with?

Beautiful.

Here's hoping Brando is the guvnor then! Great track!

Liked this a lot!

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

Oh this is good, very good. Really hoppingly glitchy. Love it.

Lovely and weird, and that's before the Toucans come in!

What glu said!

Short but sweet :)

Welcome! Love the upright bass and the ethereal jazzy feel over the dark overtones. What's that sound at the end?

Oh man I love what you've done with this, absolutely love it!

Coming back to this I still love it. Wish I could favourite it again. How you doin?

Congratulations! Awesome achievement and I like this one. It puts me in mind of Colin Garveys WooHoo song. He did that at the end of the 24hr album last year. It was also "of it's moment" and expresses some of the same feelings. Maybe you will enjoy it too!

I love this. It puts me in mind of an experiment I was thinking about to alternately record & reverse parts so you end up with an interlocking series of forward and reverse sounds. Probably turn into sonic mush but could be kind of fun. Thanks for the inspiration!
