Magnifique, très beau choix d'instrus ;-)

toi j'adore tout ce que tu fais lol SUPERBE encore une fois

Un beau voyage très inspirant et très inspiré, bravo! (6Co)

I stop counting when I'm stuck in all the places meant for
You don't know a thing until your small enough to get your
Head inside a hole and hide away whenever your called
To that time you made the shape of something that won't endure

I don't lack the will to give up all the questions set for
Anyone who has to feel their way to get through some more
Of the same I stay in place and wait till I'm not so bored 
Thinking of all the ways to get through an open door

But now I'm free to be lucky
I won't find out for sure
The day I stay true to something
That'd be the day I wouldn't be anything at all

Now I see in front of me, there's nothing much to ignore
Even leaving feels like losing, when your stuck with more coarse
Paved decay just lining up with every speck on the floor
Looking back I see the facts and I won't face them no more

But now I'm free to be lucky
I won't find out for sure
The day I stay true to something
That'd be the day I wouldn't be anything at all
That'd be the day I wouldn't be anything at all

But now I'm free to be lucky
I won't find out for sure
The day I stay true to something
That'd be the day I wouldn't be anything at all
That'd be the day I wouldn't be anything at all

Free to be Lucky

The Middle Passage

a good friend of mine painted a series of images based on descartes' "meditations on first philosophy."

https://www.lowwintersun.org/work/descartes-meditations

i took painting number 6, sliced it into five strips, fed the images into photosounder, the converted the resulting .wav files to MIDI (quantized to 16ths). i used the MIDI clips separately to trigger various samples: kick; snare; low tom; floor tom; hi-hat. i added a steady hi-hat pedal to help navigate the slightly offbeat rhythms.

finally, i layered in a live guitar piece (played through VCV rack, which i first encountered through disquiet junto, many moons ago...)

some possible questions: how can we think about the relationship between something rhythmic (the "beat") and something a-rhythmic (the "ambient" guitar)?
do they feel like two utterly separate streams, or do they somehow inform each other?
also, my track is only one minute long - can something so short be called 'ambient'?
more generally, can such a brief composition claim to establish a mood or atmosphere?

(wittgensteinian thought: i can claim to have felt sad for one minute, but not to have been depressed for one minute. certain moods or states require longer stretches of time to operate.)

all the best, htnc

🌊 Dj J Instinct presents: “This Journey Continues” ft. Helen Troon

Chilled, soulful, and quietly powerful—This Journey Continues is a liquid DNB meditation on resilience, ambition, and the choices that shape us. With Helen Troon’s ethereal vocals floating over silky pads and crisp, rolling drums, this track invites listeners to reflect on the paths they’ve taken… and the ones still ahead.

It’s about those moments when life offers a chance—and the question becomes: how far would you go to reach what you truly want? Would you fight for it, sacrifice for it, believe in it even when no one else does?

This production is smooth yet stirring, blending emotional storytelling with the signature Instinct sound. This isn’t just a track—it’s a reminder that the journey never really ends. It evolves, deepens, and continues.

For anyone chasing dreams, healing wounds, or simply trying to stay true to themselves… this one’s for you.
