and so we wrap up february with another moody piece. this is something i'd been tinkering with for a little while: building chords from a long sampled note from an old keyboard with dust damage, hence the crackling sounds. i really wanted to use that texture. in all the layering it turned into something like debris being blown by the wind. i wanted the rhythm tracks to be subtle and quiet and just barely underscore the pads, but as i built the track up the beats wanted to emerge bigger and stronger. i am fairly satisfied with it.

Love the extended soundscape at the beginning. The contrast between the crunchy sounds and pad is really nice. Great break too!

Love this! Always a fan of atmospheric pieces, but especially when they have cool harmonic and melodic qualities as does yours. The crackling gives it so much warmth and life. Favorited. Thanks for sharing
