Great subject matter Chris. A very dark and eerie piece. Some what sad in places. Love the use of 'static' interference throughout this track it works very well within the ambience. 

this kind of stuff works itself into my sys at a deep level, the universe proly begins & ends with this kind of deliciious rumble ))

This has a really special ambience to it.  It's a serious piece, and I think it's beautiful.  I could hear this for hours!  There's something about your melodies that confirms for me that you're grounded in classical themes (you may disagree, it's just a feeling of mine).  Your melodic themes have an elegant and timeless classical quality to them.  And this sound (the main theme "melody"), with the slowly changing tuning and timbre, reminds me of some pieces I recorded with a Stringman, right after I got out of the hospital (after a year  in there).  When I played them back at half-speed they had this wonderful, eery and powerful quality to them.

I recent;y watched a documentary called <a href ="http://documentarystorm.com/the-battle-of-chernobyl/">"the Battle of Chernobyl"</a> (click)<br><br>Made me think of your "Hauntology" ...this reminds me of people skittering about in an emergency... & of a bleak world left behind, as chaos subsides.

Now this is something else. As an Apollo astronaut once put it: "Magnificent Desolation". Superb. Steve (1/3 of TH)

Like the silence and the calm before storm

This is a track which was, initially, written for the FINAL BOSS level in Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft but, as it was too late to shoehorn into the build, it didn't make the final TR3 release so, instead, was used in, albeit a slightly different version, Tomb Raider 4: The Last Revelation.

A re-make of the first song I ever made (10 years ago). I sampled parts of the original song to make this, but also used a recording of my Dad playing tin whistle to make the bass and bright sounds in the background.
