The sounds are beautiful in this one but I wish they all would have lasted longer - I was just getting into one note/sound when the next came riding over it. iow, I’m not sure why there’s even a bpm at all, personally I would have liked to hear more space between the sounds, linger, legato, etc. making the whole thing slightly more, I don’t know, musical for lack of a better term.

I appreciate the review. It’s useful to get your take on this one. I think a longer interval between drones might have worked well.

Yes parts do seem to have that “rushing about” feeling at times but still a very nice mix

Thanks. I wanted to do something more in the nature of atmospheric sound than in the nature of a traditional song, and I can imagine ways, next time, that I can make it rush about less and have even more fun.

BB: “It’s me that..?”
DD: “..euh, in fact, Darling, it’s you, through the “vision” of Gurdonark. You know, it’s a very special artist..
BB: “…ah..!!”
DD: “..but it’s always a different and interesting approach of the music. New and enriching. I really like his way to work the sound, the atmosphere, and you have to admit that this time..it’s surprising..no..?
BB: “..yes..surprising..that’s the word..!”
DD: “..Nice job Gurdonark, very original..like it..!”

I always think that the human voice is a wonderful sound sample not only for song, but also for the creation of electronic instruments. I was so enchanted by her original vocal, but I knew I could not do it justice. I thought instead I would use her voice to do what it is I do. I am grateful to BB for posting such a lovely sample.

beautiful sounds and imagery, but victor makes a good point about wanting more sustain from the individual sounds. still, a really inspired and original idea!

I wanted to go more experi-ambient, but on revision, I’d chop up the sounds a bit and place more deliberation and space in to give it a more ambient, melodic feel.
