Into the Green

Winterbourne - a stream, typically on chalk or limestone, which flows only after wet weather.

Winterbourne (seed - instrumental)

The bird which sings outside my window every morning at 4am. Pretty sure it's a blackbird. Feel free to download and use.

The bird

Mostly generative piece made in Ableton with a slowly degrading sine wave as the main element.

Rabbithole [disquiet0707]

>> [Incoming transmission | Recon-7 drone | Star-day 144 | Terra-year 2126]
> Heyo! Rico here. Well that booster upgrade did it’s job! Did you check out the double-digit Gs on the approach? Atmosphere was a bit draggy but still managed to tag 3 biomes and probably the same again for sentients. That’s right - first contact! Well kinda… Had my cloaking cranked up to 11. One small sweep for AI; one giant leap for mankind.
> 360 visuals on their way - almost done processing. I know you’re itching for audio so here ya go, chow down! Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises. Spent longer than my battery gauge was happy with on that first stretch out on the tundra. Wait till you see those singing things. Your eyes’ll pop when the footage comes through. 
> Can’t say the same with subsequent caves. Enjoy the darkness. Wouldn’t be much of a stealth mission if I’d flooded them with my full beams. Still, those vocalisations I picked up. Must have been a ways off, it’s huge down there. Definitely needs a round two. 
> Which leaves door number three. The rainforest vibe might feel familiar but the size of those lifeforms might leave you with a new affinity for ants. Should be some tasty audio vox profiles there for you though.
> Good job everyone. Big moment. I’m off to hit up a charger. Rico, out.
