Taking a rather different approach from what I normally do. Basically focusing on almost one channel exclusively, on which I've spent time here and there fine-tuning since October. I did originally have percussion along with a couple of additional virtual synths, but just now decided to reduce it to pretty much the bare minimum, for a more ambient appeal.

I think you have to be in a certain meditative mood to appreciate this though. Because if you're hungering for something peppy, this might turn you off. If you'd like to leave feedback, feel free. But if you'd simply like to listen for three minutes and then move on, that's fine too.

Really lovely man.

 

But, should be longer imo. This is the kinda thing you want to zone out to for 7-8mins minimum (15-20mins maximum)

Cheers HS. I understand where you're coming from. It's something you could "lose yourself" in if longer, but I was worried that ppl might get bored if it were too long. Might upload a longer version later.

Higher tempo too, but incomplete. At the moment, it's a work in progress.

For me it could have been even slower, but maybe with more variation or movement, but very nice anyway. I like the original version too.

Cheers Mokz :)

Yeah it was a little tricky trying to get the right tempo for the "primal" version. If I make it longer, I'll plan on making it a little more dynamic as well.
