Real nice first track, very u-ziq or saw1 with some TRDJA/HAB glitch, slightly Last Step vibes too. Love the smooth mastering tone, the melodies are pretty and delay echo is always welcome in my house, really lovely Analord bridge chords and melody!

thank you for the kind words and ears!

ambient/space-y weirdness. special thanks to my dude who laid down the guitars for this one.

wow ursine is a standout for me. nice mixing, although i would utilize the stereo field a little more, not a lot of panning going on.

your composition is top notch for sure

thank you! stereo image is definitely something i constantly strive to improve. gotta get spatial

of course, in simplest terms it is all a matter of frequency, dynamics and panning

musically you have something really good going so master the space and you'll be somewhere extraordinary!

posted a new one to zvλd's deepsea platform

nice work on eve. something about the slow build and chord choice reminded me of Mogwai.

Listening now...the beginning reminds me of a slowed-down Goodbye Horses. I'm loving the melody and the time it takes with itself. Ooh now it's evolving, very pretty. Digging the percussion. Nice, serene track!

thank you both for listening - pretty honored to be compared to Mogwai!!

new WIP, similar vibes to the last one with a little bit more involved percussion

Concur with zvλd - Signal Plath is wicked. Melodies are your strong point so I prefer the stuff with less percussion but this works really well. 

thanks! yeah i've definitely started trying to labor over more unique/interesting drums, that's usually the stuff that takes me the longest so no wonder I'm moving in a more ambient direction these days. 

Hell yea, sounds like a fun set!

This makes me think of a Saturday morning on Mars.

Not Lada Laika stuff, but an excerpt from a live jam with a friend of mine. Might revisit the perc in this, might just leave it and rerecord a new take, but we're pretty happy about how this turned out, considering it was our first time + improv.

Very nice feel to this, I especially like when those soaring synth lines come in half way through. I feel like i'm noticing some clipping sounds and noise, not sure if that's intentional or not.

thanks! I'll take a look into those pops. it's probably one of the delays.
