ahh fuck san, when the bass kicks in at 0:35 i just melted 
beautiful stuff! deeeeep calypso
Wow! This has a really hypnotic quality, love it! And, nice viz!
really fantastic, the percussion is so tight on this one. love the rapidly shifting half-time, double-time feel.
Quite a tour-de-force production-wise.
Fav bit how the lead gets smeared among other sounds, like oil and water

Thats a great way to describe it actually
Tight little tune man! It's got a good vibe. I can imagine sitting in a misty field tripping, walking around with my girl.
I really liked when the main lead comes in, with that kind of digital-hawaiian vibe. Nice
Maybe a little overcompressed? When the bass kicks in every melody fades away. Anyway, sweet result.
Is the noise/static conciously added or product of the instruments?

Oh this is very much an added element. The noise volume is controlled by an envelope follower of some of the other parts

Subtle and considered .. damn nice!
Thanks for listening! Glad you dig it Tim
so melty. I love how the bass completely obliterates the melody.. I'm glad someone else shares my love of extreme compression
This is really lovely. As others have stated, percussion is tight. The lead almost has a filtered sax quality at times, which is cool. Really digging this.

Filtered sax, hadn't occurred to me but I do love using sax samples in general. Thanks for listening! Glad you dig it 
Baaaassssssssss! Great sound and atmosphere--and great percussion arrangement, too, particularly those little accents. Nice stuff!
(Wondering about that hiss--is that an artifact, or an intentional noise bed?)
btw, what do you use to generate the visuals? Is it something you just feed audio into and it generates video based on the signal or something?

So it's a set of lines in Resolume that are going into a feedback layer with some effects on it. The MIDI data used to generate some of the music (kick, snare, hats) is used in a round-about way to adjust parameters of the effects. Some Max for Live devices are used to massage the data.

I...um...okay. Yeah. I'm going to google some of those terms XD
Great track Seb. The bass fills the track but is swept away nicely at times to create a thin slice. Digging the production. Compressor king!
