Good experiment.....
It's a good experiment Daniel.

It makes a pleasant change from your other uploads.

Take care.

Great!
I love these sounds, could be an intro for a Rock/ Psychedelic song... Cool!!
LunaTrick said 532 days ago (May 25th, 2008)
Yes it could be...
But I wanted it to have a spoken word effect as well... sort of anti-poetry!

Thanks for listening!

If Only
Wow - quite a divergence for you Luna! Very interesting - I kind of wish it was a bit longer - kept my attention, cool experimentation!

Thanks Karen...
I wanted it to be long enough to pip the curiosity - but not too long to the point where people get fed up.

Nice ...
I'm a big fan of drone-based tunes and there's some nice sounds weaving in and out of this one. It's self-contained but would work well as the opening passage of a much longer and more elaborate piece too.

Thanks Rebsie...
As compatriots of drone... I must go and check out more of your stuff.

Echoes of Floyd
Lunatrick, this reminds me of Dark Side of the Moon. I agree with Magnatone, it could be longer and developed further. You've got potential in this; it could go several directions and be successful, I think.

Always flattering to be rendered as Floydian! See my comment to Karen about the length - but I take your point!

There's a...
...story here: "If only you could wake up." Without knowing the context, it's hard to comment on the message. But it feels like the whole composition could evoke a lengthy passage of time in a psychological drama. Your percussive counterpoint is so complex and interesting...and it stresses me so. Perhaps that's what you wanted. You have "struck a chord" to be sure. Nice going.
Peace.

Thanks Paul...
Not sure if there is a definite context... other than the general public is asleep in terms of political and humanitarian issues. I suppose it can mean what you want it to... much of our culture is lobotomized by meaningless entertainment and the soporiphic drug of comfort!

If only it were longer
Cool sounds. Maybe some explanation of where they come from?


Check out my latest song called Pipe Spring at Dusk
LunaTrick said 529 days ago (May 28th, 2008)
Absolutely...
The sounds were taken from a very cheap casio keyboard ran through various guitar pedals. I do a lot of weird things like that - toy pianos, pots and pans, etc.

I have a lot of 'halloween' music - so stay tuned...

I can play pots and pans.
Just saying.... But, I can't do this. Put a couple of these together and it could be presented on stage. I heard some experimental music like this many moons ago, in Colorado Springs. I got lost in it and really didn't want to wake up.
Thank you.
