It's got a 'melodic minor' aspect to it (or not).

Whatever the case of that, it's got some interesting textures.

Maybe you could have someone do a 'speech' over it at a certain point; as to how we might go on or somesuch. ... maybe a voice with filtering so as to sound like a walkie-talkie or old radio.

A giant being chased through a cannery by mosquitoes whilst cleaning his teeth.

It sounds ridiculous but some of the dreams I've had go muuuuch further.


This was great. It didn't go where I expected it would, and that's cool.

Thanks for this.

thanks for listening guys Smile

@ Dennis - i just have to have crackles... it's not the same without the crackles..

@ seismic - that's some weird imagery. it sounds like we should swap notes on dreams.

@ Matt - i'm glad it sounds ok on earbuds. i always forget to check.
lo-fi and slightly spooky..yes that sounds like where my head is at Help

Overall sound is good. The vinyl effect, yes.. why not. There is also much noise but this a vintage effect?

yes 4damind, plenty of noise! i layer a lot of stuff and i'm not shy with the saturation and tape sims on each layer. by the time they come together they can be quite noisy.
ideally i'd run stuff through a real tape machine. i'd also love some shitty old 70's compressors...

the vinyl crackle. hmm. i think i've been listening to to much of The Caretaker - Persistent Repetition Of Phrases Wink
