This is my obligatory '8 times slow' track, done in only the most hurried circumstances, but I always love doing this because the results are refreshingly abstract.

Made with Paul Stretch.

Definetely feeling some Eno vibes here. I bet your start material was pretty interesting on its own before Paulstretch smile

Paul Stretch for President.

Really beautiful. The slower the gooder tongue

Paul Stretch is the best! This is beatiful!

"Refreshingly abstract" indeed! Wanted that to go on for a while longer. Just looked up Paul Stretch to refresh my memory, awesome. The Bieber 800x slowdown is crazy.

Thanks, I'll have to listen to some Eno again! The original was a bunch of choral, organ and strings, I may upload it another week!

This is amazing!  I want to try this now!!  The "waves crashing" noise is a nice counterpoint to the "fluttering" organs.  Was that noise added to the stretch or is everything we hear part of the stretched result?

Paul Strech tracks are always welcome, but very few of my attempts have been this good. Love it!

The 'waves crashing' was added later and was made with a pink noise generator. I slowed down the track multiple times with different parameters and layered them to get this result. You cry slowing down and then speeding back up, I think that's how I got the fluttering organ!

Beautiful!

Beautiful little piece here.  Thanks for sharing it!

So slow it is fast again. Could listen to an hour-long version of this

Organic and beautiful.
