Section of “Towns in the Distance”

I wanted to upload the full track, but at 40+ minutes, even the smallest MP3 wouldn't meet the 16mb limit. So I'm uploading a section of the track, and I'll upload the full track online soon.
I wanted to record a short track with an SQ-1 sequencing a bass line (in this case, made by an Alesis Nanobass). The SQ-1 also sends clock and notes that will effect the sequencing of a FutureRetro Zillion, which will sequence a Meeblip Anode. The Sync output on the SQ-1 then clocks a Korg Volca Sample. All of this was recorded into Audacity through a Behringer 302 USB.
After this recording, I took the file into Paulstretch, and played with the "Stretch Multiplier" feature for each of the three passes I created. I also used the "Binaural Beats" and other processing on the different passes. The Multiplier causes the piece to slowly stretch itself out, rather than the standard uniform stretch.
I took the three passes into Reason and mixed and EQd all of the tracks. For Insert effects, I used a LeSpace and three different RV7000s. For the Master effects, I used an Audiomatic and the Rebirth Mastering Suite, substituting the MClass Maximiser for an Ozone.
