Happy week 34 you most excellent people

Made in Ableton

Love the low thrum of bass in this one, it's insistent. I want to hear this in a movie theater sound system and feel the vibrations creeping up my pants legs.

This gives me the feeling of a summer storm that wants to break - but something's not right about it. Unnerving. (Also been really humid here, so I wish it *would* storm for a bit).

Oof those lil crackles that sound like they're being poured out are pure ear candy yikes Combined with the opening drone pad it crawls right up the back of my neck yikes  also you had mentioned on my track you were going to listen to some space dark ambient.  I'd love to hear whatever recommends ya got for that smile 

Really nice sound design (as always), the little skittering/crackling sounds are really nice touch.  It adds interest, but also adds to the disquieting sense that "something is quite right".  Very nicely done.

Thank you, and yeah that would be something to hear this kind of music like that.  At the club I used to run the first hour was dark ambient and it was amazing to hear on a club system.  Hope you get that rain soon.

Cheers, they were kind of a hail mary when I couldn't tie the 3 bass tracks together.  A great place to start space dark ambient (ant dark ambient really) is a label called Cryo Chamber - check out the work of Sable Sun and Alphaxone: https://cryochamber.bandcamp.com/

Thank you.  I stacked the weirdest collection of plugins to get that skitter, was pretty happy when I heard it.
