Hi Peeps,
 
Psi Cygni is another electronic piece from me.
 
This one is eight minutes long and could be classed as "minimal" and, indeed, there are only two VSTi used here.
 
Hive was used to create a very simple one note sequence that drifts in and out through the piece. It is also run through Adaptiverb and helps to create low end for the drone.
 
Reaktor 6 is used to create an almost random seeming sequence. I utilised the "West Coast" blocks (matrix sequencer, oscillator and filter) and they bring some "weirdness" to the proceedings. I used lots of automation to tweak all sorts of stuff, including the X and Y gate offset in the sequencer, which is what makes the sequence a bit more random.
 
Adaptiverb is also fed with Reaktor to add more "character" to the drone.
 
I use two instances of Timeless 2, plus on Breverb 2 and one Pro-R
 
 
Peeps who are familiar with my works know full well, by now, not to expect the usual verse/chorus/bridge stuff.
 
I am hoping I have made this piece a little bit easier to digest by setting it to a flame fractal video:-
 

 
and I have also uploaded it to SoundCloud:-

Cheers, and thank you

Nice work.  May I suggest checking out some licensing opportunities?  Video games, movies, documentary sound tracks.  Many, many uses for this.  Why not get paid? Checkout this link https://www.apmmusic.com/albums/BR-0617
 

Woosh, that's amazing audio and video. I have adaptiverb as well and you seem to really get a lot out of it! I have more experimenting to do, but it sure sounds great.
 
Your mix is clear as usual, and those visuals are killer diller!
 
cheers,

Nice Andy I enjoyed that thanks

Great stuff Andy. Nice to have the visuals too.
I really like the chorus ;)

Very cool synth work/fx on this Andy......it was a treat on my h-phones (yes, all 8 minutes :)). I liked the randomness sounds of Reaktor. Between you and Fleer showcasing it, I've been wanting to get Adaptiverb. Very nice video as well.....a perfect fit for the audio.
I was actually getting inspired to play a distorted (slow moving rhythmic) guitar to this!!
 
Well done mate!!

Thanks for having a listen
 
I checked out APM Music and read their About page. I really don't think I tick any of their boxes, but thanks.
 
To be honest, I gave up on any idea of getting paid for what I do a very, very long time ago.
 
cheers

Haha! Thanks Tom
 
I'm waiting patiently for your minimal ambient creation, with all the Adaptiverb goodness! I know you will do a great job. And don't forget the video... Most impressed with your imaging skills
 
cheers
