Love this! So much space, and so much variation. That noise floor is so piercing, can almost feel it with headphones, but its just quiet enough that its palatable. Definitely feels like an isolation/pandemic headspace.

Lots of great intensity.  The space between the synth hits allows them to detonate all the more harder. 

Scary, sounds like solitude on the verge of insanity! Really intense ambient work. Lots of space and dimension in the composition. Very cool part just past the middle where the there are sounds ascending in pitch and adds to the intensity. Great sounds!

Thanks man!  Yes, I quite enjoyed the noise element in this one.  When I first listened back I was like, is that too much?   Nahhhh.   Haha.   Made it quite unique.  smile

Thanks peeps!

Excellent tones indeed.  The silence in between is what really makes them stand out.  It's like your modular is learning to speak on it's own.  That distorted-ish tone was awesome.  I could've listened to a track just with that particular sound.

Thanks!  It does learn to speak on it's own to some accord.  I direct it in what I might want it to say and if it doesn't, I interject smile
