thank you for so many wonderful tracks that i fall asleep to many wonderful nights and I don't thank you enough but you are our go-to drone dr. around here *) #1 very special !!

What a great title! And such sweet noise fading into heaven! :-)

I'll not be capable, as a listener, of keeping up with your creativity… as already mentioned several times: Great power lies here in the (s)pacing, the long mystical fade outs… 

It's so beautiful to watch things settle down. There have been a few people here, me among them, to use this effect, it's really a kind of new formal idea. Why always end with a big cymbal crash? 

what amazing sounds you have put together...

reminds me of the old star trek sounds from the 1960s... scottie already beams up in this moment!!! really goood work :D

mighty and humble on a grand scale, Tuonela. Love it /HM

Headphones essential :)

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...
