The third track in an ongoing series of Dinosaur tributes, this one goes out to the plump, over-long, yet strangely graceful Diplodocus. It features state-of-the-art granular synthesis, a plethora of enhancements using the fabulous Fabfilter Saturn, and a dash of Pitchfunk here and there. Comments welcome as always; turn it up, though, it was mixed to be heard loud.

I can't seem to play this. It stops after one second. Your URL appears to contain https, but this isn't the cause of the problem. That is just preventing the embedded player from appearing in the thread.

Damn... thanks for the heads-up, I'll try to fix it...

(edit) uploaded again, should work now. I hope.

All working now. You might want to change "https" to "http" in your original link.

I like the stumbling rhythm on here. It seems to fit my idea of how a Diplodocus should move. I also like the piano melody which combines lightness and oddity. And you're correct. It should be heard loud.

Good work

Thanks a lot for listening in, I'm always glad to hear your opinion.

You're probably the most active listener in the music cafe, I've noticed. I try to get around more and listen to other people's tracks, but... time! There's a lot of great music by the members here, a real treasure trove sometimes.

To paraphrase Bob Dylan: "Everybody must get signed!"

A little bump before it flies off the grid...

did I mention that listening to this tune will improve your concentration, sex life, raise your salary and lower your BMI?

Didn't catch on, though... maybe I should put it in the topic header.
