This track was done live with the Volca Sample exclusively. I've opened with this in recent livesets, as well as made it the background music on my website (https://greystarmusic.com)

Waking up to see the world. Works well looped.

It's also up on soundcloud & streaming, as well as released on the X4 Records🥚 compilation: https://x4records.bandcamp.com/album/--6

This track may be later included on an EP.

This is the eleventh in a series of Module Music pieces. There are three parts. It uses fm-synthesis and generative techniques. The source-code can be found at github.com/danielstahl/module-music-11.

Bright Light Night Part 3

The Hole You Left by Siegfried Jünger unfolds in slow waves of ambient drone and melodic electronic texture. Ethereal tones drift through empty space, building an elegiac calm that feels both intimate and distant.
Like early Aphex Twin meeting Jónsi & Alex, it balances warmth and melancholy — a quiet meditation on absence and memory.
From the album Absence, this piece sits where emotion meets atmosphere: slow, minimal, and deeply immersive.

For fans of: Aphex Twin, Jónsi & Alex, Ben Frost, Max Richter
