I feel you, friend. It's funny, my track this week is also about warmth. Sad days. I like the atmosphere - I've always enjoyed the sound of insects at night.
I grew up camping a lot and this reminds me of peacefully sitting by a campfire. Great memories!
There's so many ways to interpret the abrupt end of the track. I'll get back to you when I find a positive one.
I don’t understand it, but it made an impression, and that’s all that matters. The accordion is heavy.
Thank you for the insight. I understand this must be hard, and would understand if it was complicated too. It seems people (at least here) are conscious about the difference between politics and people. I already heard the accordion in context of the situation, but the backstory made it even heavier.
The sound of campfire always puts me in a contemplative mood. Very apt for our current world situation.
Beautiful. So much going on in such a beautifully sparse arrangement. The melodica/accordion sound hits deep.
I love how you opened the track with this atmosphere, which grabbed me deep into this quiet space of contemplation. As all sounds are subtle, you get deeper and deeper into the track. The accordion is great to add another dimension. Simple but it worked very well to be transported somewhere else.

oooo yea warmth to tha face
I want to express the most sincere gratitude for all the personal / positive connections to the fire sound. Much much much appreciated, and makes me glad I removed everything else from the beginning to let the nature be nature.

Melodica!
It is an accordion -- but since I play it in high register and both are reedy thangs, "same thing"

I left a comment and deleted it later, was too long and self-important. The accordion recording was part of a bunch of improvisations recorded 12 years ago when I was trying to understand my own Russianness (and Americanness, lived in the US since 1996), so it was really important last week to reappropriate those sounds in an (admittedly useless) protest of the Ukrainian war... Thanks for feeling the weight, I guess, or, rather, for not hating me for it.

And in light of the above, seeing this as the first comment on this submission felt life-reaffirming.

feeling the weight & transmitting love/peace no hate 
less is more. here we have so little, that you really created the immense warth of silence. very good job.

I'd love to hear more accordion!
