The missing notes are effectively the final 3 quarter notes of the measure, but I squeezed the first 3 notes of the regular phrase to fit into the first beat, so it became an eighth note followed by two sixteenths instead of the regular dotted eighth followed by two sixteenths.


Without getting further into minutia, I think you are saying you intentionally altered the bass line for its conclusion which is understandable. I wasn't expecting it and was wondering if it was a mistake.

Absolutely brilliant. As been stated above, I also loved the harmonic richness...and the melodies, and the vibe...everything about it was top notch!

Whoa, your fans even have their own name for themselves?! That's the coolest thing EVER!!! I guess I'm a seismologist too...and proud of it!!! Very Happy


Thanks very much for the kind words and the listen, Chris. Glad you liked it Smile

this is great. i love the atmosphere and melodies - it reminds me in parts of Orbital. the relaxed yet persistent feeling of momentum is particularly nice and gives a great sense of progression. love it.

Love the piece Tim... what really gets me going in this one is the rhythmic complexity, all kinds of pushing and pulling. Outstanding!


Thanks for listening, Matt. Glad you enjoyed it Smile

A lot of that rhythmic shifting comes from the X-Fade Sequencer in Cubix. The EnergyXT drum sampler provides additional backup.

In any case, I think most seismologists would agree, this track is a 9.5 on the Richter Scale. Smile

I can kind of hear the action movie thing tehlord mentioned, but I get a bit of horror too. Maybe one of the Phantasm sequels. Very cool. Thanks, seismic1.

Thanks for the comment and for listening Jesse Smile It does seem to contain a degree of tension.

I always thought that the original Matrix movie was a game-changer. It's about time I watched it again. Must be 6 or 7 years now.

I love those EnergyXT pads. I think that atmosphere is largely down to them.

very cool arranging. Sounds like lots of attention to detail. And a bit more reverb on this than some of your others perhaps. Very cool deep watery bass sound.

good job.

btw, wouldn't have thought Zebra would dent an i5 much.
