I liked "Emptiness of Ghosts". It reminded me of some of the olf Fripp & Eno stuff from the '70s. Very pleasant indeed. Ii haven't listened to the other piece yet. Off to play my guitar now.

Good work

I listened to both tracks. I liked the first one. It was very "empty" sounding but not thin or weak. I wouldn't say it's quite melancholic, but lonely. Very relaxing.

The second one has potential. The bass was well done. The groove, however, I felt was a little overdone. The swing was very pronounced, so that it sounded more frenetic than funky. I'd dial it back so that it's more visceral and less extreme.

Enjoyed the first track. Has a nice other worldly sound and flows well.

The second track seems like a mix of straight and swinging beats which seem at odds with each other to start off with, although there is nothing wrong with this. Settles into a nice little quirky piece after that.

Well done!

@seismic: thanks alot man, hope you had fun playing the guitar

had no internet the last week thats why i'm answearing a little late ^^
it's a real pleasure to hear this ! eno is a really great musician <3 i havent heard about the stuff of those both, will check this out right now !

@nineofkings: thanks alot man, it's quite intereseting to hear that really, because when i made the track i was feeling quite down and empty and now y'all tell me that it's not that melancholic, rather lonely/pleasant.
regarding the quirky acid track - yeah i'll have to improve certain things really, you're quite right with the groove, especially at 1:50 i think
anyway, thanks alot for taking time

@allomerus: I'm very glad you call this "other wordly sound" cause that's for me the biggest achievement i cant get, i'd say

thanks alot dude
