here's a track that blends my usual electronic stuff with the new digital shoegaze stuff i've been trying out. i really like this combo, it reminds me of two of my fav bands, Sweet Trip and The Sleepwalk

Those pads are so lush! Great job heart

I'm liking what I'm hearing.

ur hyperpop kit sounds are going crazy over the pads, it's beautiful, really dreamy track !

have you come to take the throne of chillwave ?

I like this one a lot. The high end on the little FX wash is a bit abrasive to my ears though. I want to put this through like tape saturation or something to soften the edges.

wow. absolutely amazing. every part of this is like a wonderful dream. thank you

that's a great point, i'll definitely work on this track more and run it through some tape saturation. thank you!

Glitchy beats against chill pads is a delicious combination. But when the whole track opened up at 2:40? Whole thing just launched. Great dynamics and mood, excellent track. Favorited.

So much good music this week!

ooof! love how the intro warps into that opening chord.  That low pad around the 2min mark is so soothing and deep.  excellent explosion of sound and love the quiet return outro. 

That droning warm filtered synth is doing sooo much for this track its really wonderful. Love the glitch percussion with all its ear candy, works really well to craft those big contrast moments and drops, awesome track!

Pretty,  appreciate how you wrote the ending.

Fantastic 'aquatic' sound design without using ocean/river foleys. Calm and peacefully paced track.

That been said thou-- (and this has been mentioned earlier) but, some EQ adjustment perhaps for leveling those highends at the later part.

Peace!

feelin like that gif of goofy floating in that pool i am at peace i have never felt more alive, love how this song progresses and those dense synth tones are so wonderful

It sounds both nostalgic and alien, frozen in time but perhaps by means of highly evolved technology, but in the end there's no way around joining the timeline again at some point

Would love to hear more from this direction

The swell to the dropout is great.
