It's been a while since an ambient sketch :-)

This reminds me of like a textural bed from some 80/90s movie maybe... Like this could have been in Runaway with Tom Selleck, while he's searching a building for a robot that's gone haywire... I like it a lot.  Oh, it just came to me, this reminds me of Caterina Barbieri's work, like Spirit Exit or Fantas Variations, super interesting textural evolution, with hypnotic repetitions.  Very nice.   

oh man i really need more of these from you.

the muted piano, the warbles, the overall cassette tape vibe, the secret bit crush/ring mod

downloaded and favorited

*chef's kiss*

You should finalize it, the screechy sounds are interesting

Quite eerie and spooky! Well built sketch. Reminds me of "Ghosts On Magnetic Tape".

this is great, the first minute feels almost like something that could be from selected ambient works. then that trancey arpeggio emerges, which takes it in a completely different direction. really nice work.

Neat! Super cool references, thank you.

Heck yeah, thank you Nullsleep!

If only there was a project or challenge of sorts, something in a weekly manner, where you can do something to finish music you've made earlier but didn't get further than a sketch. Unfortunately, Semi-fortnight Tunes is but a pipe dream.
It's a shame, the screeches do need their freedom.

Nice! Even without the beat, your tracks still sport a neat edge.
