This is the 2023 remix of Illuminate2, which features a minor EQ change to the LABS Choir part. I mastered it in T-Racks5, which consisted of slight EQ cuts to the high frequencies.

Illuminate, too (2023 Remix/2023 TRackS5 Master)

A song about a river, although my memory is possibly untrustworthy. I wrote and recorded it in January 2023, and mastered it in April. This track features on Ambient Online Compilation Volume 26, although the mastering will differ slightly from this version.

Bathe at Your Own Risk

Bathe At Your Own Risk

This was originally put together between August and November 2019, and then forgotten about after moving to a new computer, having a very busy period at work and three lockdowns. I managed to complete it during March/April 2021. I remixed it in June 2022, adding a new synth part to the final section. I'm hoping this will be released in early 2024.

Visitation

Refactor

Refactor (2022 Remix/2022 TRackS5 Master)

I wrote this one in June 2021. It was written after consideration of the relationship between time and space, how they might interact, and what could happen after acts of sabotage. I made a few EQ changes to the mix in June 2022, and mastered in T-Racks5

Abstraction Layers

Riven

Riven (2022 Remix/2022 TRackS5 Master)

This is quite a minimal ambient piece that I put together in April 2023. It features an unconventional Reaktor drone, a couple of synth patches from TassMan4 and a Spitfire LABS flute creation, along with plenty of reverb.

Spot the sonic reference to David Lynch.

Edit: 20240120 - I remixed this yesterday, lowering the noise levels in two modules within one instance of TassMan4, then lowered the volume level and re-EQ'd that instance. I also changed the EQ on the LABS instance, and then remastered the track.

Orders of Magnitude

Extinguished

I wrote this piece of cinematica in 2022. It's quite a dark piece, with alternating moods - despair, hope, and further despair. The Absynth  sounds combined with the wavering M-Tron Pro strings give the piece an air of uncertainty. This features on my "Visitation" album

Celadon

Celadon (July 2022 remix/master)

I put most of this together at the end of 2020 as a "test" project for MuLab 8 after making the decision to move to a 64-bit DAW. Then I forgot about it until a couple of months ago when I found it in one of my old project directories. The music was 90% complete, so I revived the project and made a few musical changes in Mulab 9, mixed and mastered it. It's quite slow and more than a little gloomy.

Descent

This is another electro/ambient hybrid car-crash. I put it together in April 2023. In March 2024, I decided that it needed to be a little louder, and remastered with a different chain. It's less quiet than the earlier version.

Edit: 20241003 - I remixed this an hour ago, adding a little reverb to the cymbals, and then remastered the track, using the same chain as before.

Paramorph

Paramorph (2024 Remix/2024 TRackS5 Master)

This is a track I started putting together in late 2021 whilst getting to grips with MuLAB. I didn't finish it at the time, and other projects captured my attention. In June 2024, I rediscovered this project and finished it over a couple of months during my free moments.

It's another ambient/Berlin-School inspired piece of electronica, that features a lot of sounds from Absynth5.

Edit: 20241126 - I remixed it in November 2024, bringing down the LPF corner frequencies on most of the Absynth instances, and increasing some of the EQuivocate attenuation of the mids of the same instruments. I also took the opportunity to clean up a little LF mud. It was mastered using the same chain used on the original version.

Wake Up, Detune, Switch Off (Nov 2024 Remix/Master)

Here is the 2024 remix of my 2022 track, which was originally made for Ambient Online Compilation: Volume 18. The remix consists of Volume and EQ tweaks which were made to (slightly) increase the volume of the original track.

Paramnesia (2024 Remix/2024 Master)

Trying to reconcile love for old-school Prog-Rock with more modern approach to instrumentation and composition. Hopefully the results of this unlikely fusion will yield some level of success.
