Damn, Where Is My Mousetrap?

Inspired by Drumity's thread

I reckon if you find the mouse you find the trap - unless it is an ambush then be very careful.

I certainly hope it's not!

Psycho-Heavy-ness. The drums are really pounding in this and give the project it's muscle track. Nice work, my friend.

Cool track, nice work getting that amount of noise in without having it sound distorted or boxy

And I like the artwork too!

Thanks a lot enducre!

It took me a bit of time to achieve the separation of the instruments, so thanks for noticing it!

The art's great, there's more at drumity's thread here:

So in my multimedia portfolio I will integrate a credit section for all you guys and therefore I'd like to know what you saw in my picture ?
What's your interpretation concerning the contents and purpose ... in short what grabbed you ?

Nice one TO, I dig! Love that driving beat, cool sounds, was that a steel drum intro? Also that feedbacky voice!

Imagining this as program music to a chase scene involving a mouse is awesome!

@ drumity : what really grabbed me was the reductive/minimalistic style of the painting that manages to capture urgent movement in a static image. It achieves that goal remarkably well, and that's the reason I did a track that's fast (not very like me

) and urgent with a minimalistic melody (but not instrumentation, which I must admit is very like me

).

Thanks man! Yep, that was a steel drum intro from a fantastic soundfont I found right here on KvR. If you're interested, I'll seek out the thread and let you know where it is!

Very nice description and thanks for the kind words

I get more and more motivated to do some more paintings in that style .. like to renew the piccamira:period
