3C 273 [Dark Ambient]

Where's the love for this track although I must admit I had to look up Sandman pro but think I may have got the wrong product:-

Although it is dark (pass me my torch a moment) there is still that filmic outerspace scene quality to it and it does remind me of early Tangerine Dream, think Atem.

I listen to this earlier and didn't have time to comment. Had another listen and I'm very impressed with what you did using just pitch change. Very cool and trippy indeed. The video sync's nicely and pulls me in. Well done! Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks again for listening to my stuff Dean.
 
Really appreciate it
 
cheers

Oh yes, very trippy indeed and do like the arp parts (didn't even need my glaucoma meds to take this ride, made me move like jagger ).
With all your compositions Andy, you certainly have opened the doors in here to this genre. As always, I love the fractal vids you've sequenced them to.
Well done mate!!

Much thanks, yet again, for watching and listening to my stuff
 
Might be opening doors, but I've got quite a way to go before I convert (brainwash) everyone haha!
 
cheers

Thank you Rick, I really appreciate your time here. Thanks for listening and watching the video

That was cool.  I would love to see that in an Imax theatre.
 
Your pieces are always so lush, deep, and layered.  I close my eyes and imagine you twising knobs, tweaking envelopes, and cranking the volume.  Do you use a sub when you mix?
 
Thanks!

Thank you so much for listening to my stuff, again, Jesse. I really appreciate it
 
I don't use a sub. In fact, most of my stuff is mixed using headphones and I keep my eye (rather than my ear) on the frequency spectrum using Voxengo SPAN.
 
I'm also afraid that, for this track at least, there is no real time knob twisting going on. This is all tweaked on the go, but in many passes, getting stuff to try and sit right. So there is some "composing" going on, but not in the traditional sense.
 
I have almost completed my new studio. Nothing that good about it, except that I am allowed to spread out a bit with my "real" instruments and I also now have my nearfield monitors set up again.
 
 
cheers, and thanks again,

Cool stuff Andy! I still don't know how you create these, but they are great mood pieces. I should probably watch the video, but I didn't want to be distracted...

Thanks Dan!
 
You must have been listening to this as I was listening to your latest masterpiece
 
I must admit, the way I make these things is so much different to what I was doing a couple of years ago. Much more effects and automation in these whereas in my earlier pieces I'd have more synths in a piece and only basic delay and reverb.
 
Thanks again for listening to this and I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
 
cheers

Very nice! No clue as to how this is done but I sure do like it!

Thank you very much Gary
 
I could certainly give you some pointers, if you fancy having a go
 
Having listened to Calypso, though, I'm not sure that you would want to...
 
 
Thanks for listening
 
cheers

Didn't watch the video, which I'm sure is cool, but as expected I didn't really need to.
 
Another successful piece, Andy.  Loved the "white noise hits" weaving in and out over the slowly evolving bed, like a large object twisting and turning in space...  an object that at one point starts to get some rhythm. 
 

Hiya Steve
 
Thanks, and thanks again for listening, I appreciate it, as always
