Hi Jeff.
Nice stuff. Lovely choice of sounds.
Good to hear youre not repeating what others do.
If there is one thing im missing its probably a dramatic curve
It builds up slowly but somehow doest completely move towards a climax
but that could be intentionally
Cheers,
Remco

No, I think you're right, and it wasn't intentional really. I think that's the part I struggle with the most.

Jeff,
Of the two, opiates is more to my taste - although I did find the rather extreme ducking under the kick drum rather wearing after a while. The drum patterns in opiates were also rather more interesting than the very conventional kick-snare-hihat in xanax.
Xanax had some very interesting dissonances and harmonies in the synth sounds, and a certain arhythmia in the lead which creates a sense of discomfort - if this is intended, then it certainly works. But the previously mentioned, very steady, conventional drums to me seem to be at odds with the discomfort generated by the other sounds. I wonder if, in fact, something like the drum patterns used in opiates might work better in xanax (and perhaps even vice versa).
Two very interesting, and as Remco has mentioned, original tracks. Thanks for sharing.

Time is an illusion - lunchtime doubly so.
