Experiments and ideas I hope to explore in the new year:
- sound + dynamic visuals
- strings
- soundscapes
- interactive audio

Cool idea with the dynamic visuals. Really appreciate the energy in this song though and the link that loops it. 

This really sets a scene. Moody, driving, versatile.

Very nice. Calm, but brooding and ominous. Cool idea to expand your music with visuals or interactive elements, curious to see what you come up with.

Cooool.  Dark AF and solid atmos.  Love the website too.  Went to see what else is on it but I guess i just gotta wait as the year unfolds!

Loving the soundscape/ambience here a lot

Really really great. Loved getting to experience some cool art in the morning. The moiré patterns are so sick, they're always so interesting to me. Like everything is a hologram. The music enhances all of it. Super cool, excited to see what else you make this year!

seriously so cool. love the feeling the visual brings heart

oh, I previewed it through the search results so I didn't know there were visuals. It evokes some nice visuals even without the GIF

Being able to zoom in to the visuals makes them even better!

Love the atmosphere and visuals.  The strings are heart wrenching and feel like the soundtrack to the aftermath of my afib episodes.  heart

lush atmosphere, love the visuals too!

Sounds really good! Love when there’s a visual aspect to minimal stuff, really makes you able to immerse yourself in it. Looking forward to more!

this is insane how emotionally heavy this is with so little.

so happy you are back, but also so happy that midnight parking is back

dude i feel like your WB1 and this one are musical spouses

Cool idea to couple with the visual, I found the tones soothing but also building tension in a pleasant way

Great job, looking forward to hear&see more

definitely! got me right in da feels for sure heart

So much emotion in a few artfully arranged chords. So odd to hear such brilliant ambient that isn't awash in effects.

This was very emotional, minimalistic and incredible powerful at the same time. I wish it would have been longer. All the best for you in 2026.

beautiful, zirafa. love the visual accompaniment.
thank you heart

Super atmospheric! That was a very nice listen.

happy new year zirafa!
subtle & lovely track/visuals
exciting brief you've given yourself
here we go again!
