Extinguished (Seismic Minimalist Obsolescence)

[seismic1]

My days this is good .
It's been a tough few months for me, but I've finally got some time to appreciate some of the many,(favourite) talented artists on here.

I hope everything is ok now, jb

This is beautiful Tim and as usual, very, very good work.

Thanks very much for listening and commenting. Glad you enjoyed it

Late night, or an early morning?

Dark and brooding, yet timeless and relaxing creating an interesting duality.
Tones could be more rich and maybe a bit louder but over-all very good.

You're probably right about the tones. Reaktor 5 and TassMan 4 are fast approaching their 20th birthdays I'm stuck in the past. You're right about the volume levels, too. I have been making a deliberate effort to raise the levels on my more recent tracks, although they are probably still relatively quiet. The next one will be a couple of LUFS higher than this, with a decent dynamic range.

Thanks very much for taking the time to listen and comment, PatchAdamz. Glad you liked it

Lovely minimalist soundscape that is actually quite interesting to listen to...something i know is hard to achieve with this style. Nice analog style warmth as well, something which gives it an almost 70s Berlin type sound.

I seem to be gravitating towards more minimal compositions over the last 7 or 8 years. I find that quite ironic, given that I upgraded my computer in 2019 to a machine that is capable of handling a much heavier load than I would have previously attempted. Even the FX here were very simple. Glad you thought it was an interesting listen. Maybe 50% of the sounds on here were sample-based, and the FX processing (Aether, Satin) may have helped to give the old-school sound.

Thanks very much for taking the time to listen and comment, frank. Glad you liked it

Back again... Transported straight into a special place. Why did it have to end?

Wow A repeat listener. Glad you're still enjoying this one, folderol

Steady on - I have been known to become a serial listener

My parents were serial listeners. The serial was called "The Archers"

So was my mum. ^ that ^ one and Mrs Dale's Diary

I was more likely to be found watching Zebedee, Florence, Mr. Rusty and Dylan.
