WOW. Mystical, jazzy and very deep in contemplation. Great project.

Lush and beautiful.  Great vocal sounds to the drone...which I suspect are (somehow?) sustained vocals.  Very nice.

Room for one more at the pub? Wonderfull tension.

Curious "bar drone"... It's a quite unique atmosphere you build here, half meditative half crowded public space...

Great drone piece, and gets my vote for title of the week :-)

Recorded in a drunken buddhist monastery floating on a slice of earth, Mysterioso captured the trippy yet divine atmosphere. When he landed the reporters crowded him with microphones "How was it?" "Did you acheive Nirvana?" "How's Kurt Cobain?"(a cheeky reporter chimes in)... Mysterioso just smiles, closes his eyes, and floats off on an elephant shaped cloud. Now for sports...

Guys, I have to thank you for the support and generosity I've received from the WeeklyBeats' community - without the feedback my work has got from y'all each week I would most likely have given up months ago. Thank you. And also I've heard some amazing tunes, it's astounding!

Thank you!

The drone started in the live recording, built up with maybe seven passes of bowed double bass, using a looping pedal.  In post-production, I used a vocal drone I'd built up from 15 or 16 passes of me & my wife sustaining a series of single notes, plus I split out some of the individual passes in order to create different chord colours.
The song I'd originally recorded the vocals for is here: [soundcloud]237389759[/soundcloud]

Always room for more at the bar.

Haha!  Cheers!

I like it! Heehee
