Love the slower vibe and more acoustic drum sounds this week. The breakdown at the end was a nice touch too.  Once again I have hit my "fav" button. 

really cool change of pace! i, too, love the glitch breakdown at the end!

Thanks for the comments, and for listening! smile

I'm glad the glitch breakdown has gone down well, wasn't too sure about it myself! tongue

That beat is bad arse and I love the quiet breakdown towards the middle.  The choice of instrumentation is excellent and the strings give it a great build back into that glitchy-industrialized beat.  Nice job as always!

How did I miss this? The beginning reminds of playing the game Proteus - very relaxing associations for me - but the edginess of the beats and bass synths send it into a grimier landscape altogether. Very cyberpunky! Love the distorted lead synth especially, playing tag with the bouncing bass and keys. Sweet, and emotionally a lot darker than most of your stuff so far smile

(PS - Sublime mid-section build up is sublime)

Thank ya! There's definitely something a bit menacing about this one tongue but you have to let that out now and then big_smile
