Another jam, but this time a bit more weird and perhaps even ominous. A bit like starting on a journey to the unknown. I think the rhythmic bits came out rather nicely, without being the usual fare. Mostly analog stuff in use, also some Ensoniq Fizmo for those weird sounds

I get an ominous vibe for sure.  Cool textures throughout.  I can't really pick a favorite but I do like how there seems to be a whisper-like quality to some of them and also a subtle squiggling sound like there's something bubbling just underneath the surface.

Definitely exploration music. I'm seeing a mysterious (alien?) jungle. You've intertwined a number of different elements really nicely. It doesn't get boring, but it also never intrudes. There's an art to that subtlety that's always eluded me. Very nice!

Thanks!!!  I try to have as a method for WB this year to understate things rather than overstate them. It is so easy just to throw something more into it, if it feels unfinished. Now I try too peel something off to see if less is really more smile

Like your WB1 track, this one is hypnotizing and here too there is this nice subtle evolution of the track! Love it and look forward to more!

Creepy, hypnotic ambience nicely anchored by that full, plucked sounding bass. It evolves so slowly I kept getting surprised at new things. Kind of evokes Robert Joseph Manning/Brian Reitzell's concept soundtrack for Logan's Sanctuary.

Makes me wanna turn down the lights and listen in the dark. So nice.

Oh maaaaaaaaan, this is fun! It feels like I'm exploring the ruins of an old abandoned enemy base or something. Super cool!

Loved the journey!

I love this one. I am zoning out here. So good.
