I love the way you get these sounds to evolve in an interesting and musical manner. Good luck with Bandcamp, will high-res versions be available? I am sure there is detail in this that the Soundcloud compression removes.




Thank you so much, Glyn, I really appreciate your time here
 
I really do enjoy creating this stuff, for sure, and it really helps that I also enjoy listening to this kind of stuff, on a daily basis. The basic sound creation, up front, sometimes doesn't take that long, because I am not trying to write a traditional song as such, which, for me, could take and age and most of the time end in failure. Most of my efforts therefore go into effects and automating send levels to those effects. And it is that process, I think, that allows me to generate these pieces.
 
Regarding "hi-res" version, the track is currently available for download on SoundCloud and it is a 24bit 44.1kHz WAV file. Once I have uploaded this to Bandcamp, as and album, I will be removing the download option from SoundCloud.
 
That said, having listened to both the WAV and SoundCloud 128kbps stream, the latter doesn't sound that bad. I am told that is because I am "mastering" to at least -1dB and the MP3 conversion is a bit more "refined." Also, I aggressively cut anything below 30Hz and anything above 15kHz, because my own personal listening range falls well outside of that, so why keep it in the mix. Cutting the highs like I do may also help to improve the MP3 compression. Although, don't take my word for it, I'm just repeating stuff I have been told
 
Cheers, and thanks again for taking the time to listen.

Lovely and moving...although there is very little actual movement




Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to this Gary, I really appreciate it
 
Yes, I agree, little movement, and very subtle at that
 
cheers

These ambient pieces really juice my creativity.  I've always liked the sounds of fans..the arbitrary spectrum that they emit.  I often go to sleep with the sound of fans in the background.  (In florida they were a necessary part of the picture.)  The usual association of floating or moving through interstellar space or solar systems accompanies your pieces.  At least my image of that...I've never really done it... that I know of.  




Ha! Thanks so much David... I know exactly what you mean about the sound of fans, or anything that becomes part of the ambience of a place that we eventually accept into our lives.
 
Thanks again for listening to my stuff David, I really appreciate it
 
cheers

Loving the floating suspension feel on this one Andy. Good luck with the sales, as I keep meaning to do this myself but never seem to get round to it.

Hi, Andy,
 
You've got a very cool, relaxing ambient piece with lots of nicely blended textures and a clean warm cinematic soundscape!
 
Both interesting and relaxing at the same time, nicely done!
 
Best Wishes,
Bob
