one of the best from you IMHO, it would be fun to build a true ryhthm from that , BTW how long didn't you check your KVR pm?

wow! excellent! very complex but with lots of minimal feelings...

i fallen deep in some sort of technological oceans during the listen... with terrible alien-robot-fish... hmmm... great trip...

excellent and terrifying...scourging me of auditory sins. Thanks for sharing, as per, rachmiel.

thanks mayan! terrifying ... to me it's beautiful, though often these are quite similar. rilke, in his duineser elegies:

denn das schoene ist nichts als des schrecklichen anfang, den wir noch gerade ertragen, und wir bewundern es so, weil es gelassen verschmaeht, uns zu zerstoeren.

for beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror, which we can (just barely) bear, and we admire it so ... because it blithefully disdains to destroy us.

exactly...just to clarify, I didn't mean terrifying as in horror-stricken...more like radical awe. And yes, quite beautiful.

An extra terrestrial improvisational rock band jammin. Very 'otherworldly' compositions and musicianship while the instruments/sound sources themselves seem very close to home.
Nice experience.

This is one of the best songs I heard of you. I hope it doesn't make the song worse for you. (No clue what it has to do with Rilke, though). A quiet, chamber-work like song for me. In some seconds it sounds to me as if a female voice would start singing, and in a way like some old german conductors preferred it - the anti-Karajan or opera-brillance so to say, a voice that would perfectly fit into the song, like an instrument.

Ooohh, like this one a lot Rick! This track feels more purposeful, more composed than some of your others. It moves and breathes. There are moments of insanely gorgeous subtlety and restraint... just beautiful. It's amazing what can come of scrapes.

! do you think i DON'T like it when people like my music? ;-) even though most of my music is considered esoteric or inaccessible, i always imagine i am writing to "give something" to a listener.

(No clue what it has to do with Rilke, though).

the rilke aside was in reference to the comment about the music being terrifying AND beautiful, a mix rilke understood very well.

i ALMOST included a female voice in the mix ... ! :-) thanks friend.

thanks polyslax! your gentle sparseness has been sort of inspiring me ... give listeners time to relax and breathe. speaking of scrapes ... are you willing to share your samples? :-) we could trade.
