Compulsory Open Spaces

Created via an excerpt from my live modular synth set last Thursday and a field recording captured the following Sunday of wildlife in Melrose, South Australia.

Nice blending: hard to tell where the electronics leave off and where the natural world begins.

I kept waiting for it to kill me 'cause I've heard that Australian wildlife can kill you. But it didn't. It was cool,  though.

Really cool how the field recording blends in with the synth.  The beginning and ending had an awesome effect.  Very surreal and tense all at once.  smile

I like how the birds' chirping meshes with the synths. Well done!

That bass gets hectic mate!!  Sounds solid on my end :-)  Great field recording addition.

Thanks for listening everyone!  And yep, you're correct cTrix.  The bass is super hectic.  That part of the recording is straight DI from the live gig so picture that bass on a PA system and I did zero eq (except for mastering).  Near drowning.  big_smile

^ lol at that pic

You always create such strange spaces with just a few elements in your tracks. /jealousy smile

Thanks mate.  And yeah, those drop bears are brutal.

Total post-apocalyptic radioactive wildlife vibe to this one.  Excellent.
