Dang. Goats sound pretty good

Dang. Goats sound pretty good :P

the dreamy feel here is really nice. the chords that the arps hit are super nice, especially on those one-beat small variations. Awesome! and when the drums come in?! oh so nice! really great work!

Loving the swirly feels the arp instantly creates as it melts in with the spacey guitar. Oof those dreamy chords are so good. Feels like I'm going for a ride on Falkor

Great track for only a couple of hours.

I like how the arp holds everything down. Kind of like a who Babba o Reily vibe.

Some cool shoegaze vibes.

Five minutes? That means there's still some room next time.
Great vibes here by the way.

Love how different your stuff is week-t0-week - loads of diversi-tility!

The arp sound reminds me of some 80s mystcial movie soundtrack, buts it's doing what it needs to do and gives a solid root for the tune to stem  off. loads of airy reverbs and space. A great piece, never mind how close you cut it to the upload deadline - you're a braver man than I.

I feel like this is tapping into the same weird musical realm as the new Boards of Canada and that's not just cuz I was listening to it this week lol. I mean that traces back through M83 and Pink Floyd and we know this reference game it goes on and on but that's my weird way of saying you have hit on a touch stone here, one of those mystic sonic musical wellsprings from which a multitude of stories get told with this arp and dreamy guitar... I am a little in awe, as always, Mr. Frog

Thanks! A long track is a lot easier with the immediacy of a guitar. Once I got the first section for the arp, bass and drums, I just had to duplicate it...adjust a little....and then play it three times (establish guitar melody...then harmonize with myself...then noodle over the outro). Took me longest to establish that first melody and play it without a mistake

I was more than a little surprised. But then, most anything sounds good with delay and reverb

Thanks Jegasus! I wasn't sure about the drums at first - at first it was feeling more ambient in my head. I like where it went though.

Thank you! I should link the source file - it's a freesound.org download that I've had in my samples folder since forever. I was playing around with Granolizer and it was the first one I grabbed I'll find that again tonight.

Thanks There's something about an arp that can just take you by the hand...

Evoking feels of riding on Falkor makes me outrageously happy. Thank you

Thanks! I had a lot of those classic arps in my head while I made this...Pink Floyd, the Who, so much good stuff.

Time to play chicken with the Submit button   Thank you!

Is it versatility, or ADHD? The world may never know

But seriously, thank you. In the past I've been a touch envious of artists who can consistently work in sound and do awesome music within that framework (such as yourself). It was actually WB'24 when I finally realized that a lack of "a" sound actually IS my sound...and that I should lean into it. WB has given me a ton of confidence to stretch out and try new things. And also that if need be, I can sit down and make something quickly. Sitting down to make a track with 2.5 hours left would have seriously stressed me out in '24

First off...holy shit, I forgot BoC has a new album. Listening for the week is planned. I don't listen to them a ton, but I may have imprinted on them a little. Warm, hazy, epic, nostaligic, maybe a little ominous. Started listening to the new one a bit, and totally hear where you got the comparison.

Sending you down a musical reference rabbit hole is high praise, and i know exactly of whence you speak. I had a few of my own arp references in mind...Pink Floyd of course, but another one was Walkabout by Throbbing Gristle. For a band that mainly trafficked in a rather dark sound, Walkabout is damn near sunny and optimistic. There's something about an arp that is a musical whirlpool that pulls you in.

As far as guitar - I've been playing more with clean, twangy tone this year - I've never used trem so much before There've been some awesome western flavored tracks that have been very inspiring (HoolieBrown and Huabun come to mind), but also you, and the kind of things you were doing on Autumn on Ganymede. Dreamy guitar

The arp at the beginning is already great, and the guitar sets the mood just right. Once the drums come and and the doubled guitar it's perfect. Has a nice 80ies prog rock vibe and the long fadeout fits the genre.

For a last minute track, this feels quite epic.  The arp creates a great atmosphere, the guitar takes us on a nice journey, and the entrance of the drums really kicks things up a notch.

Five minutes to spare!!! Now that's stressful.
The stress doesn't show in this wonderful dreamy piece though!
Excellent work!
