If it’s any consolation, I found the first half to be quite unnerving. Those opening sounds particularly were absolutely eye opening.

I liked how there seemed to be an emotional shift about midway through - that calmness you talked about started to come though (in spite of your best efforts LOL)

It’s almost like it’s a message told through a drone - it looks bad right now, but it’s going to be ok Even if it wasn’t what you were aiming for, you hit the target with this. Well done.

Fantastic atmosphere.

Fantastic atmosphere.

Ahhh some years ago I'd be writing for a couple hours every night and it was Cryo Chamber's compilations based on the Elder Gods that would provide the soundtrack and create this wonderful cocoon of drone and reverb that would gradually extend its tendrils into the rest of the workd around me until the line between the music and thr environment blurred completely - the ultimate usurping of reality by musical means in my books - and your track just achieved that in a few short minutes and it was amazing and I am envious lol. This is fantastic. If you can build a whole EP from this I'd listen on repeat (and you should send a demo to cryo).

I would love some behind the curtain details on how you build your drones and compositions (also what kontakt ambient guitar?)The Cryo Chamber compilations have always been music I've wanted to make myself but never known how to approach or where to begin or even understanding how those artists build some of their sounds (and I like to think I'm not terrible at sound design lol).

This is a triumph. Sometimes the music becomes what it needs to be, and not necessarily what you wanted, but being sble to recognize that and let a piece become what it needs is a challenging skill in itself. Fantastic work.

+1 finding the start unsettling (that high pitch/frequency!)

But overall yeah I get the vibe this piece apparently had inherently! But I think it works. I have a sense of floating in space. I think this piece would be well suited for long, slow, silent reflection.

but yeah, love where you took this / allowed it to go

That is really rather lovely, I really appreciate your reading of this one.  Thank you
(Still glad there was some creepy though )

Cheers, thanks for listening

I can't begin to tell you how happy that made me to read, seriously, thank you.  I emailed you some of how I do the drone sounds

Thank you, I also got space vibes off the drones thus the harsh noises to start, like maybe the ship collapsing on itself...but it had different ideas.

hahaha, sorry about that.  And thank you, hopefully offered a moment of chill towards the end

Ome thousand percent, this! Especially how the song opens!
But after that, super chill and relaxing. Very nice!

Ooof unnerved as well right away   The lil rhythmic glitch that goes along with that in the opening almost feels like I'm walking down a long winding corridor with no end that suddenly bends when that distorted guitar sound comes in.  That's just the first minute   The space opens up much more through the track like I'm floating in a broken down spaceship.  Unnerved that leads to calm.  Def enjoyed listening to your tracks this year!
