Through the Black Hole

After last week failed voice + mixing + mastering mathcore attempt, I decided to get back to electronic beats and tried to work on textures and sound design and getting a better sense of space in the mix. I usually try to work with a concept in mind but this week has been a bit improvised in terms of composition, going with the flow, picking up sound sources here and there and making a sound collage. I recorded old Octatrack beats, fired up the modular to create drones and random electronic percussions sounds, used a Max patch I made to create a beat using chaotic and complexity notions, sequenced the Volca Keys with Ableton, etc. Everything assembled in Live. It's been great fun to work like that. I'm starting to feel more and more confident with Ableton too (which I only got about 2 months ago), and the workflow is getting a bit faster.
Anyways, there's a lot going on in this track, and I'm quite satisfied with how it turned out, mixing and mastering included (yay!). I used recently acquired Toneboosters plugs all over the place; they sounds quite fine to me!
As always, any comment much appreciated.
