Thanks for all the positive reactions.

For you sound designers out there:
When making these sounds, I used a different approach than what I usually do. I think I will make a short video on my Youtube channel about it, but basically I started off by listening to one of the old Aphex Twin tracks, picking out a handful of sounds I found interesting.

For each and every sound, I wrote down on a piece of paper three things that defined the sound. Such as “slow pad”, “bell-like” and “long slow delay”.

Then I muted the original song and started rebuilding the sound in Diva from zero, using nothing but what I wrote down on the paper. It was a bit like working as a bad photocopier, but the results became something that was unique but captured the spirit of the sound.

Cool feel/mood. Reminds me of the Deftones' Saturday Night Wrist as well.
