Well, I completed the most intensive project I've ever attempted

It's an album split into two EPs. I've released the first EP entitled Inuminous EP1 from Track Number Records.

It's mastered by Noel Summerville, mastering engineer of many Warp projects. I also create a small site for it. Cheers:

what, no ability to skim, but what if i'm an hardened consumer that just wants to get to the main course? Kudos for breaking your back making a pretty website, but yaknow, mystery is a locked door to discovery when we're but passengers of ships in the night.

I'll add a scrub tool later. I was just recently learning to use the soundcloud api.

Love the production, congrats!

Listened and enjoyed, especially 'Karma Drag'; the way you edited the vocals reminded me of something off of 'My Life In The Bush of Ghosts', possibly the track 'Very, Very Hungry'.

Definitely digging parts of this. Need to give it another listen and try and wrap my head around it all.

There is some interesting stuff in here, in particular your drum work and the horn.

My favourite part is 4:00 onwards though, really nice, chilled pads.

For some reason only one song appears when I post a link here. It's actually a link to an entire EP (in retrospect I realize I posted in the wrong sub-forum):

Entire EP

i'm really enjoying this and the minisite is a really nice touch. what was it like working with Noel Summerville? how did that come about?

Charisma Cult: Smart the way you Intimated a melody via strings, then translated it into a long synth. The way the white noise stops is unnerving midway, but I like that, especially since I found the white noise unnerving to begin with. Sounds like a contraditction, but its not. I got used to that which was unnerving and then missed the way it left me off kilter. It's cinematic, but not in a bad way....more in the way it takes its time because it's got time.

I spent some time trying to figure how to find the right mastering engineer and it was mostly due to the fact that it was my first time doing this. I wasn't sure what a good or bad rate was. I knew that I didn't want to invest too little because you get what you pay for. I also wasn't convinced that my small project required some hot shot. I just made an assessment of my work and thought I should locate someone who at least understands the context of the music. I love AE so I looked it up and contacted Noel about his rates. They're actually really reasonable. I'll likely stick with him. He does have a very traditional approach to mastering but I support the carefulness and non-exaggerated nature of his work.
