Here's the beginnings of a new ambient piece reminiscent of hmm..... I don't know who. The rich, organic sounds used in this were made with a the Arp2600V software instrument - see below. It's music nerd heaven. Enjoy.
A new, very watery and relaxing ambient piece I put together today. Be patient, it does change :-)
Here's a Kompakt-Records-inspired ambient techno MP3 I've just started working on and am so far very happy with. It's got quite a nice relaxing vibe to it.
Made using Ableton Live, Native Instruments - Reaktor and a few other plugins.

It's just a loop and very clean/clinical but i've been focussing on trying to get a solid sounding mix together and think I'm pretty close.
A new Boards of Canada-esque piece of music I made last weekend while on holiday in the bush.
I've been learning to play the guitar recently so have been including more organic sounds into my soundscapes. While playing this on my PC I put together a .pdf slideshow of photos of trees against clouds which fitted quite nicely with this music. Very peaceful.

This first track is a preview of a rather funky little tech/house number. First I created the drum/organ loops and then jammed a loose composition into Ableton Live. Played it to my girlfriend last night and she quite liked it. Ladies respond to funky, body music, I've noticed.
I'm going to add some touches of African percussion, my own voice and some quirky little synthesizer effects to punctuate it but the essence is there.
This second track is much more introspective, more of a hybrid. A slight african, melancholic feel to it. Yet to add the main melody but again a feeling is clearly evident.

Not much to say, just listen. It needs some editing and more variation but the essence of it is there.....
