It seems you have a faiblesse for German nouns, is this correct?
I’ve been in a terrible traffic jam this afternoon and before I lost the Iphone to the Baltic sea I used your mixes as traffic jam soundtracks in the car as you know. This one would have been terrific today. Anyway, what I like most about this is your voice. It adds an earthiness that makes this more 2011 than 2031.

Quote: timberman… a faiblesse for German nouns …Actually I was looking up ephemeral to be sure I knew what it meant, turns out I didn’t. Thought it meant barely there, means short lived, which I guess is a type of barely there. So then I looked up rift even though I was pretty sure I knew that. That led to seeing the phrase I used for the title, a graben being defined as a type of geological formation. But now that you mention it, yeah, must be of German origin. Of course now I have to look up faiblesse.

I think graben is the german word for ‘ditch’ but not 100% sure.

From wikipedia - a graben is a depressed block of land bordered by parallel faults. Graben is German for ditch. So, right you are.

also trench or furrow, kicks the doors open for creative interpretation

Ahh now.

I wish the range of human language would be sufficient to describe what I mean, but it’s not, so there you go. Instead: this is very good work.

That will have to do.

First, I’m so glad to hear ephemeralrift’s didgeridoo appear in your piece… such a super-cool sample… used in a super-cool way. Second, I’ve been listening to a bunch of Halloween music lately… this fits that mind-frame. Third, I love your vocals in this. Fourth, very cool track. Duck, duck, goose.

I actually live in the Bonnechere Graben (a graben of regional extent.)

There’s a lot of different moods in here… the wind chimes in an approaching storm, the squeaks of scraping glass, and the big pulse sounds, which remind me of something I used to hear in nightmares as a child. Needless to say, I found it foreboding (in a very artfully constructed way.)

Keine Ursache! (according to google translate) And indeed your samples are very welcome. Quality and substance, thank you.

Very cool, hard not to visualize aboriginal art while listening.
