I hope you recorded this on tape.

I forget, which stage of the stellar cycle produces iron?

It would have been awesome to use tape; sadly it was all digital.  (I did monitor through headphones, which were almost certainly electromagnetic, so...)

According to Wikipedia, iron's the last element formed by fusion in a star before it collapses into a supernova.

I'm digging this a lot.

I got that reference. A star starts to die once it has made iron as it is too stable to kickstart a fusion reaction. It's not so much the presence of iron that does it, but the lack of other materials to fuse.

As for the song, I'm not huge on drone, I kinda hoped for that metal, but I suppose the metals only get heavier as the year goes by (other than bromine and krypton, 35 and 36). Let's see what Cobalt has in store.

Love the atmosphere in this track. Well done!

I love those deep tones. and the subtle static/distortion overlay. There's a meditative, eerie quality to them both. After listening to this piece I have a strong urge to rewatch Twin Peaks the Return

This is very interesting slab of darkness of space. The suspense is great!
