--> This is a droney track that took a long time to finish. I have been trying to finish up an EP/demo of this kind of thing, but I've been kind of discouraged/depressed about music in general.

If anyone knows any netlabels/labels I might want want to try with this kind of music, let me know. I was thinking kranky, but I think it's a little too harsh sounding for them.

radness
it could use a big bass drone in there soemwhere, I think I kinda heard a distant timpanish bass sound but wish it was louder somewhere once or twice.
really really nice, though, i love distortion and filters.

it hurts so good!

Mmmmm... vicodin...

I thought the bass might take a backseat for once in my compositions. Though I definitely hear you on the bass drone.

I heard a Sunn o))) + Boris track and they used a vocoder to produce one of the most evil bass drones I ever heard. Needless to say, I'm nicking the idea and will use it on another track.

Nice! I really liked this. You should check out Vidna Obmana, really amazing stuff link

I am really liking the directions you are playing around with.

Thanks! Vidna Obmana sounds cool...noticed he was on Projekt as well. Is there any one album that's good to start with?

very interesting. THe shifteing timbres make it way more listenable then I thought it would be. (This is said with the nicest meaning. I THought it was going to be like, one sustained note but It actually was pretty awesome.)

oh, and lets see pawel make a track like this and then we can vote on which is better.
mmmm. Democratic process.

this is great, but i don't think it will be popular.

Hence the name.

the title... the title...
sets this track apart from all of them "popular drones" out there.

really deep textures. it stays minimal yet develops a tempo and the background noises create space. rich harmonics. it does hurt at times, the way the tones bend. well done.
