Melodica is what you hear one of my favorite instruments, but I gotta work on my technique to sound like Augustus Pablo. Thanks for the warm praise. There's no actual feedback - as in amp to mike - I just piled distortion on some tracks and then played others that complimented the overtones. The counting cycle is 11 beats, which adds to the anticipation and keeps everything out of phase. Check out my latest song called eye for you (w/particledots and michael2)

Interesting soundscape Although quite soothing you somehow create an almost tangible tension with nice touches, like the harmonica (or melodica?) and guitar, which I assume are actually recorded by you? The loops are well picked, only the reverse cymbal seems a bit too prominent at times. In case you're interested, check out Eric Wollo's work, only because an accoustic guitar solo on top of this beautiful soundbed may work extremely well. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the comments... I agree with you on the cymbal level and am planning to go back into this. My computer couldn't handle the load so I had to pre mix the bed before adding the live melodica (reminded me of my old 4 track days). The guitar is a loop by the way. Now that I've listened to it - and with some outside input - I'll go back in and retool. Check out my latest song called eye for you (w/particledots and michael2)

It's got a bit of Floyd in it... That was a strangely surreal erotic movie with a Pink Floyd soundtrack... wow that was a long time ago. Anyway, nice music here, the rain and thunder set the hot sticky mood of the piece, slow and continual. I agree that the cymbal should be softer and/or panned more toward center. Stuff seems to shift in and out, which keeps interest. Subtle things here are great, like the stuttering effect near the end, and the little bits of melodica (a little more echo/reverb on it might add to the mistique)... very tastefully done! So, given the description and the wind blowing in the end... I assume you too have "Meddled" in Pink Floyd some? For a similar "rainy" intro, check out my "Rainy March (JP4)" sometime :-) ttfn, Drakonis Check out my latest song called Lullaby for the Inner Child

Floyd came to mind later... and also the movie The Sorcerer with a great track and effects by Tangerine Dream. As you can see above this is a work in progress. My wife prefers it without any sound effects and she may be right - but it's hard not to have fun like this when you're in headphone world. But yes - I'm an old Pinko at heart, and yes The Valley... was a cool movie - the soundtrack is some of my favorite Floyd music.

os *that's* what going on under the Big Island at first i thought it was thunder - but actually it's stresses breaking free deep within the earth, isn't it? this is just wonderful ambience: on a geologic timescale. huge stresses slowly shifting in ways we can only begin to glimpse........ my only wish is that you closed the loop: fade out with another roll of thunder - that would sort of end it - and that way it's also kind of like one cycle of an earth tremor followed by ten thousand years and then another earth tremor...... but that's just my opinion. it's great as is!

Smokey you're such a romantic and a great musician to boot. I love how the artist/poet in you is at work at all times. Your comments on the Loop It forum were dead on by the way. I like your interpretation of the thunder - I wasn't really thinking seismic with it - but I was really into slow movement on this one - hence Tectonica. Looking forward to hearing your LOIOLI piece Friday. Check out my latest song called eye for you (w/particledots and michael2)

this has a feel of tension and suspence building to a moment that never comes. The way you start off grabbed my attention and held me there. Excellent feed back at least I think it was feed back, also is that a harmonica in there. This was another level and now the sky is the limit, greatness!
