drift

This one started with a loop of a recording from my iphone of a stream while hiking in Kimberley, B.C.  Then just added from there, through in a little microgranny manipulation to add some gritt. 

Needs a bass warning. That's so good. Really good slow build. Good fit with the guitar strums.

love the atmosphere and the sound of the beats. the guitar works great too

i felt like i went on some type of journey... id go again!

I like the slightly lofi tone of this track. The low rumble from 3:56 brings a dark vibe before opening again. Is the guitar a sample there?

this is beautiful. definitely takes you on a trip smile

Love the bass on this track.  So many nice surprises on this track.  Great job!

Thanks, that part was recording the guitar sample into the microgranny and manipulating the sample with the microgranny, not entirely sure what it does, but twist some knobs and it spits out these mangled sounds

Dark cinematic vibes with that intro.  The beat being introduced takes you on a journey through that stream.  Really enjoyed the pace of this and that deep mangled guitar chop.  Filtered beat FTW!

I like it! Has a really nice feel to it!

Wow, that is an epic journey! I feel like tracks that start with recordings of the outdoors and always special. What a great hike this would be. Through the valleys and opening up to the grand vistas! Love the big mangled guitar chords and the lower end thumps. Microgranny looks fun, cool when devices just kind of have their own character and spit out happy surprises.

i love love love that timestretch beat effect

great guitars

Really enjoying that guitar strumming.

Love this nasty bass.  MG I'm guessing right there?  I've always eyed off the MGs before but refrained as I have a Cocoquantus.  A different beast but lofi sampling still.  Still might get one one day as I'm a fan of lofi goodness.  smile


super interesting soundscape
