This is beautiful. I will personally organise a rather unpleasant sit-in on this very page if you decide to change your flow just to avoid swirly-paddy-goodness...it's so sweet, and not in a sickly or saccharine way trust me. This track has a perfect blend of light and shade, amazing

I go with drmindflip on this one... Ending is great. Love the piano over that glitched rhythm, and all the static around 2/3rds of the track. Is there any hardware equipment involved in the feedback of the end, or is all in the digital domain?

Really great song. Makes me jealous as a producer

Great track, with a lovely atmosphere.
You can be sure that we can take a whole lot more swirly-paddies, so you just keep them coming

Oh yeah, this sounds so lovely. I really like the feel to this. It sounds late at night but it's only 640PM in NYC. It sounds like Sub Delay!

I love the vibe and textures. Great track!

Another track to fall in love with....

Hahaha, thanks, the thought of a virtual sit-in sounds so interesting to me I'm tempted to avoid any further swirly-paddyness just to see how that might play out

Thanks so much for the positive feedback!

It's funny you should ask about hardware equipment, I am SO jealous of the other musicians on this site owning dusty analog synths, beautiful old pianos, hand-made guitars (that they know how to play!) and so on...Recently I've been obsessed with getting a more organic sound so try to get as much recorded from "the outside world" but in terms of external instruments I only have a couple of Korg's new tiny analog synths...Thankfully some of them are quite noisy and where in the past I would scoff at the noise and hiss found on the outputs of these little boxes, now I treasure that noise as a precious gift to help me somehow bring some warmth into the music!

So...to properly answer your question, I do get a little bit of hiss and noise and "broken-ness" from the analog world but always wish I had more to choose from! Maybe getting a record player or something is the key? Hmm...seems a little late to start collecting records!

I can assure you that you get that analog dusty feel quite well. I could swear you were using a weird chain of analog delays with lots of feedback.

My own experience is that sometimes the equipment is not the key, is the production and the way of thinking. I had some hardware gear a while ago and got rid of most of it, treasuring the units that really give me "that feeling"... Believe me, lots of equipment are just plain dull and boring. I started sampling everything with a cheap PC and a tracker, and after some years I realized I got better results with samples than with all those pieces of hardware gear.

So again, as a listener, I say you really got that analog dusty feeling right, and you could be quite proud of your production skills. You really are squeezing every bit of warmth from your Korgs. Respect!

Everytime I see the term 'swirly-paddies' on this thread, I imagine some influx of aggressively-dancing Irish guys. I think that makes me a self-reflexive racist or something

Lol, need to think up the PC version of "swirly-paddies" then
