Dreamy tune, sounded less playful and a little bit more introspective than your late stuff. Cool idea to mess with some selfmade home recordings. Specially liked that Daedalus/Gaslamp Killer raged drummer ending at the end. Beatifully origrammed breaks BTW
The animated GIF (which I bet you created) is a work of art
The gif really adds to this track! I love the melody. Mix is divine. Pitch bends compliment headtrip feeling. Bass awesome when it kicks in. Drums make it TOO COOL. Killin it this year.

Thanks! I highly recommend making home made samples, they have way more character. Plus you can always make a nice gif while your at it!

Me, to my boyfriend: "God! This guy's stuff is always so good!"
Oh man. Oh man. Typewritery goodness; there's a lot of poetics and metaphor here too, and I like it.

It's like the typewriter is offering sotto voce commentary. ;---)

To the really old kids, getting a memo from a Chicago Typewriter meant something else entirely.
This piece is fantastic. Those typewriter samples are awesome and those drums are incredibly programmed. Awesome job on this one, fav'd!
also. i remember in the early 2000s there was a band that used a typewriter as drums, cant remember the name though

how do you get a typewriter to write in cursive?
A few typewriters sport script typefaces. When I first saw a letter written in one over a decade ago, I scoured the internet for an affordable one. I made a free font from the typeface if you are interested.
There are probably more typefaces out there. Recently, someone made a Comic Sans typewriter:

There probably have been typewriters in music since the first typewriter. I can rattle a quite a few recent songs that feature them, wikipedia has a few... is the band there?

that is amazing! the typewriter percussion really reminded me of some older matmos stuff.
I put this track on a mixtape for my friend and he really enjoyed it
