ProgRockHouse? ProgHouseRock?

I was listenning to a lot of Primal Scream for a while, and this sort of came out of that. Been chewing on it for a while, wondering whether to make it longer or do something more fancy with the Hammond. But not.

Despite the image this is all VST's - Arturia mainly, the B-3 and SEM mainly, with Pigments on the lead. Drums are stock Ableton (Disco Arcade and Landlourdes kits)

Don't touch that filter!

Glow Pilot Jumps the Ship

Former biathlon Olympic champion Laura Dahlmeier has died on 28th July 2025 while climbing in the Karakorum. A rockfall hit her at high altitude at Laila Peak while she was on the road with her rope partner. Rescue operations were greatly complicated by the dangerous situation.

This tune was supposed to be published with another title and with vocals. It was not finished yet, neither was the life of Laura.

Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans. John Lennon.

Die Welt hat Dich am Laila Peak verloren

Ascension tells the story of a protagonist following his career path, overcoming fears and barriers, getting over self doubt and adverse conditions. Or maybe the tale of a space odyssey operated by a huge company and its rise to the most powerful entity of mankind. 

Choose whatever you want and please tell it in the comments.

This is a hybrid track starting with a solo violin and piano and strings accompaniment. A constant soft string ostinato is opposed to a synth pulse. The middle part starts very ambient with spacious pads but rises in tension with the help of the orchestra.

The climax is introduced with a strong melodic statement played by horns. It's further developed with modulation and varied instrumentation.

The outro is more or less a mirror of the intro.
