An Ill Wind (ElectroProg - Seismic Happenstance)

[seismic1]

Great work. It gives me a space and mystery feel. You know how to make interesting, subtle yet strong soundscapes. Perfect for movies or games but works on it's own also.

+1 great track (as always)!

Thanks very much for listening and commenting, astrochimp. Glad you liked it

Good to see you back here. It's been a while

Epic !

A little over eight minutes, and I'm not getting bored or longing
for something else to happen.
Great choice of sounds and arrangement. But the drums/percussion
is the highlight for me on this track.
Those glitchy sounds make a big difference to my ears. And they are
not taking over and becoming too much.

Cheers

Thanks very much for listening and commenting, sbj. Glad you liked it

Glad you liked the percussion/glitch, too. I was a little worried that I might have strayed into overkill territory with the Glitch/Replicant percussion, but most people seem to be cool with it. The drums took a while to put together using Drumatic4, KickLab XXL, and some samples from EnergyXT, fed through compressor and reverb. At one point I was using two compressors in series, but I backed away from that.

I felt a nap coming on at the beginning of the track, but I made it through all eight minutes without getting bored or falling asleep, so you did something right.

Glad you managed to resist the urge to nod off. Those late-night listening sessions can do that to you. Thanks very much for listening and commenting, Eric. I hoped you liked it

Very spacy sounds with a hint of danger
P.S.
Added more comments 'over there'

Thanks very much for the listen, and the comments, both here and on the other side. Glad you liked it

One of these days, I'd like to make something more lively and cheerful, but I never seem to get around to it. Maybe next month...

I have zeta but I never use it considering it's so buggy and crashes my daw! thanks m8.

I used to have problems with the original z3ta+ using EnergyXT2.5. Projects used to go out of tune after saving and reloading. I upgraded to EnergyXT2.7 and z3ta+2 at about the same time in 2014 and the problem seems to have "gone away"
