Airy PhotoShop Visions (wink!) Very interesting ambient vibe. I like the contrast between the very sharp rim shots and stick cliks and the soft atmospheric elements. Nice panning of the rhythm bits. There were a couple of spots where I felt the pulsing tonewheel was a bit too up front. It might be fun to have that part gradually advance and recede in distance, using reverb or some other modulation filter, to create a sense of movement through space. I was waiting for a major change up, sort of an epiphany transition, but I think this piece is more about a mood than a journey. The bi-wing fly-by at the end was a nice surprice (oops, that's a spoiler!). (7-8-7-7) Check out my latest song called Loop It or Lose It 9

a clowd in 3 clicks.. finally found a reason to use that filter-nothin gets by you, man! ;) thanks for the reverb idea-will throw into bag of tricks. hope you got a chance to listen with speakers instead of headphones. sounds kinda sterile to me without the low-end to balance out the coldness of the 'clickity-clacks'. maybe i need to start adding more mid-range or something. i appreciate the vote/comment Check out my latest song called glyd

cloud machine The overlapping complexity of sounds you got going here is pretty deep... I would definitely call this ambient, rather than industrial...but great tune anyway...unique and absorbing. Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

clowd machine thanks! yeah-lots o' stuff goin on, the next one out will be a little simpler. i meant this to be a little more sinister at the outset, hence the industrial nature.. some smoke mixed into those clowds Check out my latest song called glyd

rhythmic.... perculating koolness....the analog synth gives it a dark ambience.........like an android crying out in the night for a taste of humanity.....this piece could replace some of the curent mind altering drugs out there ....very kool....

More melody thanks mr. troy. chikoppi noted the need for a transition as well & i'm trying real hard to 'get it'. i've had this said of my other stuff, too. this song is kinda slow/soft so it seems harder to throw a really tangental curve without blowing it. i can certainly grasp that it's way too linear-will try to work on it Check out my latest song called glyd

What IS a G5G5, anyway? I wouldn't really classify this as Industrial, either... although it would feel right at home alongside some Industrial tracks for an Industrial album, so.... good enough for me. You are very talented at creating audio atmospheres, but do agree with Troy. Perhaps, it's time to push for something that's structured more like a song. As an experiment if nothing else. Nice retro feel with the synths, and the rhythmic texture I absolutely love! Check out my latest song called With You

industrial v. ambient i can't decide which way to go on this. uses the vocabulary of an industrial song, i think, but doesn't really have the 'grind' to it. hmm.. gonna work on song structure. i have another tune almost finished that changes directions a bunch-not sure if it's gonna come off as holistic, or just a bunch of pieces. then it's back to the virtual drawing board to see what i can put together. thanks much for the comment Check out my latest song called glyd

took me back for a while, some of it reminds me of some older pieces, done back w/ analog synths, etc. I'd agree that the main filter synth line needs to have more movement in the mix. Like it;s getting obscured and then clarifying again. I also feel almost like it tries to move almost too much melodically, I think it works best as a sort of ostinato - almost a drone. I'd like some of the higher freq. things that sneak in here and there, to maybe get a little it hotter too. Keep playing with it.

took me back thanks ka-klick. had to look up ostinato (musical phrase that repeats). maybe i'll try taking this song apart & reassembling it sometime-i would really like to try out some of these ideas, repost & get additional feedback. kinda burnt out on this one for now tho-something about playin it over & over & over &.. ;) Check out my latest song called glyd

it's all about texture... You've created a very interesting background texture with the various percussion sounds. I agree with all that has been said previously about the need for more of a "change-up", as well as modifying the lead synth sound. I would also suggest varying the textures by letting the percussion tracks "solo" at times -- they're so interesting by themselves -- to give the ear a rest from the almost relentless synth sound. You did this briefly in the last 1/3 of the song, when you faded out the solo line and let the percussion shine through. More alternation of these textures would create more interest. Perhaps have more variation in the percussion, too. Alternate between having everything play at once with less instruments. The percussion is definitely the most distinctive and imaginative aspect of this tune, and I encourage you to continue your development of it! Check out my latest song called EPONYM

it's all about texture... thanks a lot cameron. i really like the percussion ideas. i'm still trying to figure out iDrum & pretty much had all of the perc run from start to finish-it was something i wanted to play with, but never got to (just in case you didn't notice, there are a bunch of perc tracks). you helped me zero in on what the others are talking about a bit more. i appreciate it Check out my latest song called glyd

Thick texture I love the feel of this. I picture a broad brush painting texture rather than a pointellist. I wouldn't change this at all. If you go for melody, do it in another effort! This is much more visceral. Which parts are attributable to the buzzer2? I just installed it and am curious to give it a whirl! Check out my latest song called Lama du jour

Thick texture thanks for the comments. buzzer handled the low droning effects (first sounds you hear) & the higher 'swish' sounds. there were GB effects on those sounds as well. a hint for using buzzer would be to use the 'random' button (off to the right somewhere) to give you a starting point & then tweak it from there. i usually begin with a vague idea of what i want in a sound & then try to find it by experimenting with the buttons & knobs, they are just beginning to make sense to me-lots to play with Check out my latest song called glyd

plastique this reminds me a lot of old plastikman- and takes me back. i really like what you've done here as far as rhythm and space. i think the pulsing filter-ey sound is a little hot- should blend in with the track a little more- it's strength is in everything supporting that sound. tits! -a Check out my latest song called Car Go Fast

plastique great observation about the main synth line being too hot. i had it buried a little more in previous versions & you are right-sounded much better. thanks for such a tight listen. gonna check out this 'plastikguy' Check out my latest song called glyd

Did you Hear that Cloud........or See IT? Whoooooooaaaaaaa.............was that like one heck of a CLOWD of WHhhhHHhhhhhhhat........ I feel like I am still in that thing............that phaser is quite something. You sure know how to use your toys ...........and here is where i drifted offff................... l l V .........and the vast array of sounds that emerge as if they are warm pillowy flatbread layed amongst static and atmosphere, and internally embedded in chaos and convection. Your song has a big canvas of sound which does a tremendous job in capturing the listener and entangling their imagination with the most surreal and contrasting concert of notes I think I have ever heard. Bravo!!! I listenend 3 times..........no 4 I lied.........and I had to force myself to move on! This as you know is about more than audio...........it is about the sight of the sound.........!~ Sincerly, MidiMacMan Johnathan J. Stegeman |

is clowd=cloud crowd? This must be my lucky day. I have been listening to great works. All of the background is marvellous, and that analogueish synth upfront gives the feeling of an entity which the title suggests. I like the submerged bass which we hear clearly in the beginning. I like the percussive details. But most of all, the synth makes a melody as if saying "who I am" and I love its uncertain melancholy. You're a pro dude!

once again.. ..great sounds, the phaser effect on the synth is really trippy in headphones, almost makes you dizzy when listening to it loud... Very dramatic sound to it... the 'clicking' sounding beat is really cool too, I could listen to a song just using that. Nice stuff! Check out my latest song called Glass Spider

Very, Very good Well Mungo and I am back for another listen here.........just love the idea of confusion and disorder that is in this clowd here...........I just feel so refreshed each and every time that I go through the cloud. You know that it is kind of going through the drive through car wash.............and then getting the high pressure air dry at the end when you upgrade to the deluxe package!!!! Or even like biting into a york peppermint patty. Anyways good work again on Cloud!!!!! And I am curious abour which patch that you used on the crystal synth. I love that thing.......but I am not quitet sure what all is happenning yet when I use it. Perhahps you could give me that one probably blatently obvious thing that I am missing. And to you Mungo, I will get on the process of finding some more favorites to "beef" up my list of favorites. What about your library...........? I am sure I could find a little somethin there. Sincerely, MidiMacMan Johnathan J. Stegeman. |

thanks midi haha-the refreshing car wash analogy is perfect-made me laugh.. the 'deluxe' package for sure! as far as crystal goes, i think i'm in about the same place you are. i just started fiddling around & got some sounds that i liked, but nothing i could really control, yet. just keep playing with it. check out buzzer2 also Check out my latest song called glyd

Wow, crazy stuff! I feel Dizzy .... Sound to me like Kraftwerk on acid! I love the way the beats and synthpads blend together and form this huge wave of sound, a sonic avalanche constantly moving forward, putting the listener in to a psychadelic trance. This should have been the soundtrack for "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" Check out my latest song called Shadows of Our Forgotten Ancestors

6:50 It's 6:50 in the morning right now, I haven't slept yet, and I just listened to this for the first time. This was exactly what my mind needed. Mellow and relaxing, but not boring and sleep-inducing. It was flowing, but at the same time there was enough going on that my brain worked to pick out each new, individual noise as it came and went. Relaxing, but at the same time engaging. I liked it alot. BTW, I am staying up all night and devoting myself to making music... :-) Check out my latest song called Super Trance

I am not sure if I ever listened to your stuff before. It sounds very complex but I am most aware of the journey you are taking through silence. I liked the clicking and thumps and what sounded like an accordion being open and closed. There is a reassuring melody throughout and that propels one through the smoke and clouds. Thanks.
