This is a beautiful work. The various sections are interesting in themselves but I also love how you've blended them together, the changes work really well. Bravo!

Love this. I've tried to make pieces like this but it's beyond my talent for arrangement at this point. I love how you've blended traditional sounds with experimental timbres. Nicely done!

Short but sweet.

Grand. Really love this..

Cool tune and tones.

this track reminds me of Mr. Oizo...short but good.

oolala!

I don't do dancing but might consider it in this case.

it's a pip ! my earlobes were vibrating

I enjoyed that mate.

Weird dissonant-jazzy-african vibe. Definitely unique.

nice drums!

Greta mix of sounds, love the really beefy sounds

Cool chunky sounds here! More please.

Nice! Enjoyed that!

Great electro-jazz. Cool.

Interesting sounds! Enjoyed that

it sounds like being part of a larger thing, no? - really great soundscape!

[updated]

I thought I had drifted off...thanks

thanks re skree. the thing about noise (for me) is it can be so fun! there's a built-in visceral excitement and the challenge is harnessing it into musical contexts. man, Lao Jia is hypnotizing me!

very cool.

the BackvieW stuff is excellent. I will check out your more recent material soon. [also, I have a lot of exp/drony stuff down in my playlists that you might like.]

pretty fucking cool!

thanks guys. I've been busy and have catching up to do on this site...looking forward to more listening! as for this track (and many others in this category) it's a mashup of stuff from improvfriday.ning ; basically there's a weekly "event" where brand new stuff gets posted (improv-based or written for IF) and then some of us do quick mashes and post within the same event. sometimes the mashes leave the originals somewhat intact, sometimes it's a full-blown reorganization of materials. the main thing for me is it's fun as fuck!

beautiful Tom; congrats on the project Jukka-Pekka.

thanks y-alll

great; such an earthy sound out of the SMS & FM chips!

I especially like this one, with its rich, blurred sonorities. yum.

WS, I added no additional sound sources. The trebly stuff is Paul Muller's piece, which is actually a kind of Steve Reich-ish texture with a midi chamber ensemble. I gated it so it only sounds when David's guitar (which is also slightly gated) reaches a certain threshold. There's a tiny bit of release and then additional decay from reverbs (different one for the guitar). Can't remember what I else I did, mostly sweetneing. For me, a fairly "hands-off" mash, compared to what I usualy do, and an experiment in discongruity, or even cognitive dissonance (I'm a sucker for that stuff). Anyway, again, it's formally still David's wonderfully spasmodic improvisation, but with Muller's contrasting sound also being uttered with every guitar gesture. So it's little improv experiment and I liked the way it sounded.

compelling track, I like it. In other context the faux drums might bother me but here the strange elements seem to compliment each other; or a sense of conscious artifice. PS I like your Ives

interesting idea, Chris; indeed this could turn into a song of sorts. It was just a quick IF mash where Paul's continuous consonant minimalist texture is chopped into discrete chunks by virtue of being gate-triggered by David's raucous guitar. I also declined my usual pitch-shifting and enjoyed the found intervallic & xenharmonic dissonances; & discongruity in general (mood/texture/tonality). So to me it's more like a hyper-instrument extension of David's original improvisation.

cool. I like your range of work (a fellow eclectic). re: twikk, there may be some beating effects thought they weren't explicitly planned. there's certainly a crapload of hard, random panning.

folks, this is one of the great tracks included (and altered) in the mash I posted a couple days ago.

@vaisvil, pretty much; it's a lot of pasting, stacking, pitch-shifting, time-shifting of the original utterance (no extra samples used).

visceral and compelling

cool. vaguely reminiscent of Ozzy's "Diary..." (and early Sabbath as well).

very nice indeed!

like it; cool that you're making nice stuff with M4L. I'm also going to check out your LM software. thanks for checking out Body Dis in full; glad you enjoyed it.

cool (as in chilly, in a nice way). hmmm, i read "cannabis" at first.
