Interesting stuff! I have enough trouble with 12 notes. What do you call all the extra ones!
Elexotica!
Minimalist, twisting sounds - always an intriguing listen!
Ahh a touch of the Sahara here I think!
Querky, blew my whistle and tooted my flute!

Similar idea but with stepped up tempo. Rather exhilarating!
Sort of heart stopping brilliance! Rich bass sounds!
Agree with Terry - loving this new stream of tension from you!
clinb the smooth wall
