I've got a bit of a personal liking for digital distortion and 'fuzzy sharpness' all over the place. It kind of dominates the mix here (hopefully without breaking it!). It's otherwise a slightly nostalgic feeling melody and mood piece.

Most sounds are from Ace (which I really need to spend more time with!) :hail:

Very cool sounds (and sound) and a nicely low-key melancholy. I enjoyed it. Thanks, t00nz.

Oh nice :) Lovely metallic timbres and melodies. Have you thought about adding a long reverb on the bell?

I appreciate a lot pads part in the background (sound/harmony) & wish i could do similar arrangements on my own.
I found the melodic part's lacking a bit of fluidity as if you entered it "step by step" on the sequencer (maybe the case). Could gain a lot with more fluidity (real playing) imo.

Very nice Ambient.

Cheers for the comments D.H., KungKrille, Koo'waan... much appreciated :)

KungKrille: Yes, reverb might soften the sound back into the mix a little (which is what I wanted to do more of).. I'll have a look into that.

Koo'waan: I think you're right. It's not all quantised, but I still haven't got the hang of getting several tracks to gel together as well as I'd like when the timing is loose (and do often end up quantising phrases more than I probably should). Perhaps the fast attack of the bell sound doesn't do me any favours with flow of the slower melody line either come to think of it.

It is something I'd like to improve on though, so I'll definitely bear in mind in future.. may try to re-record this one when I've given it a break too.. thanks again for the feedback :tu:
