Something very out of my usual approach, in keeping with the goal of getting creative smile Tried for a long organic style.

Really enjoying this. Are you able to give some detail as to the creative process? Also what are the words? Droney goodness.

Creative process here was basically working with synth (Serum) to set up a 'base tone' that runs throughout the track. Something that has a long sinusoidal pattern so that you'd be anchored. Then to get the unsettling mood, I worked to make some layer-able sounds that I could gradually introduce. Lots of working with the EQs to make them not fight each other!

Nice! I totally missed the unsettlingness, but very cool.

I imagine this is what it sounds like to travel the spacelanes with your Quantum CB Radio picking up signals as you pass dead colonies.

I dig the mood of this, like a lonely campfire.
