I enjoyed this very much (twice). Accessible coolness.

You are too kind my friend! With all your creative output you still have time to listen to a track more than once? 😁 Thank you for your kind words and all you add to this community! 😁
Much love!
Cheers!

It’s strange how your attention went into those enharmonic 4-note clusters and made us digest with repetition. It sounds experimentally minimalist.

Yeah!! Experimental Minimalism has been a strange but lovely friend of mine since I was introduced to Philip Glass, Gavin Bryars (specifically his masterwork of Jesus’ Blood Never Failed Me Yet) and Eliane Radigue. I love the idea of the less sources, sounds and notes the stronger the message can echo and stick to all your memory parts 😁 Thanks for the kind words and all you do for this community!!
Much love!!

Oh man… hypnotizing. Thus far, every track I’ve heard in this Secret Mixter has been hypnotizing and yours totally continues this run. Hmmm… “things change.” Yep. I’m not sure what to say… except, I big time dig. It’s like super deep lofi trip hop… and your son’s “trains” is brilliant at the end. High five to him! And to you! And to Darkroom and Martin Cee!

High fives flying right back atcha 😁 Thank you for the kind words and all you do for this community! I think much like Matisse we create Mesmer because we need to be mesmerized 😁 I don’t know if you know Eliane Radigue but she may leave you spell bound 😁 Happy trails to you my friend!!!
Much love!!! πŸ™β€οΈπŸ™

Thanks for the kind words :D I loved that text in the Imaginal Cell description that the cell’s purpose is to resist the changes to come knowing that nothing can be changed or rushed before its time :D If we could all be so fortunate to accept the path and the natural timing of the universe :)
Much Love!!!

Thank you Joel. You put together some of my samples I would have not of though to do and made it fresh and entertaining. It’s funny to hear you singing to the melody at the end. I can remember sitting down at the Yamaha baby grand coming up with that on the spot. Nicely done and thank you for the remix.

So glad you liked it! I often feel the same when I hear remixes of my stuff from here. They aren’t often choices I made or would make but they find their perfection in others ears and imagination :D It was a fun melody to noodle with and I kept telling myself I didn’t need to add that and every single time I listened back to the track I started singing along with it :D I love all of the piano pieces and I look forward to playing with them some more. Do you have any more of them in the works? :D
Much Love!!!

I have been thinking of recording some new piano works. I did one last November I think, but I am due for some more. Take care and thank you for the great remix again.

From start to stop a winner.
Very nice play with the mixing tool, Joel.
I like the setup very much and I trust Apoxode likes this track as well. ;-)

PS
the singalong does remind me of susanna from back then, perhaps its the accent, perhaps the buoyancy.
and I just lsitenend to Jesus blood… and have Elaine Radigue lined up to listen this evening—thanks for the pointers.

And above all, what we need now is a peace train !

Martin
