A Ritual For Abandon

Distracted and tired sums up this week me thinks. It's been a strange one. I've picked up a few new bits of hardware for... reasons.. but I started well with a little acoustic noodle. This bookends the track, but the rest very much felt like changing stations on an old radio, hence the static samples throughout the track.. It felt apt, if a bit on the nose.
So, new hardware tho! The only things I used on this track were an FM/AM radio to get the static and odd noises, and a cute lil synth, the Behrigner UB1. My CDM Meeblip SE bit the dust this week and might be proper dead, so it was lucky I had a new toy in the post.
I also picked up a Kastle Bastle (or a Bastl Kastle actually.. ) but I'm yet to dig in...
Anyway.. more about the track? hmm.. I guess it feels a bit messy to me.. it ended up with a lot of layers, and I didn't have much time to mix them, I also tried to really bring the kick drum and the synth washes forward, but might have over cooked that.. but I do still enjoy it.. late night static for a late night world.
