This was originally recorded in early 2016 as a reaction to weather events (and the damage associated with them), that had occurred at that time. I remixed and mastered it in 2022, focussing on levelling, panning and EQ issues in the original recording.

The original track may be found here, but the differences between this and the original are very minor:-

Here is the 2022 remix of Tears in Rain. It consists of slight EQ and levelling adjustments, in preparation for an album release later this year.

Tears In Rain (2022 Remix/2022 T-Racks5 Master)

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.

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

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.

Here is the 2024 remix of my 2022 track, which was originally made for Ambient Online Compilation: Volume 18.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.
