It's been a while...but Cloudwalker has finally finished a new tune!

It's my first "real" track in over 2 years.

Heavily inspired by the likes of Scilly Automatic and Evildoers by Ott...

I've been working on this one for over 4 months now. You figure 1-8 hours a day....120 days....

Let's just say there's been a lot of blood, sweat, and tears put into this one.

 

Everything in this track was done by me. No loops or sample libraries.

This is also my first track with live recorded percussion and sound effects.

I wrote this track to tell a story, and recreate the feelings and atmosphere from that event.

Without going into too much detail, it's about 3 beloved relatives as they embark on a twisted and deranged journey into their own minds.

 

"What happens when you're stripped of all ego, and you try to eat an orange?

You realize, then, that the orange tree is selfish because their fruits are only half-edible.

And by that logic, all things are possible..."

 

Subject to interpretation.

and, of course, open to comments, suggestions, and critiques.

 

Thanks for listening

 

much love,

Jace (Cloudwalker)

It's not exactly my style - a bit too plucky and upbeat sounding - but it sounds good and is well-done. I thought it could use a bit more bottom...it seemed just a little weak in the low bass area. I tend to like a lot of low bass in music like this.

 

The other two tracks sound good too.

Thanks for the listen Veracohr.

I know the style isn't for everyone, but I'm glad you thought it was well done.

You're not the first one to mention the bass...

But sloping it off starting at 40hz-50hz gives more room for the other sounds to breath, I feel.

May need to experiment with it a bit more ...

 

Thanks again.
