Those opening recordings sound like they could be old wartime transmissions. Dangerous mood.

Highly successful industrial ambient in my book. Very informative write-up. And I'm guessing that roaming scream is the element from NIN? Loved that EP back in the day. Very cool session. :)

excellent dark ambient landscape, well done man

Awesome groaning, industrial soundscape. Nice dystopian vibes. Very cool as usual 

strong textures...man man man, thumbs up!

Makes the skin crawl, as it should. Quality.

Lately I've been listening a lot to Industrial Ambient and Dark Ambient and in my jam sessions I often tried to emulate such a genre, albeit with varying results. This time, though, I quite liked the result, maybe because I've been incorporating samples from the following two awesome tracks:
* Lesa Listvy - Swarm
* Nine Inch Nails - Eraser, Over, Out

Additionally, I used samples from the following Youtube videos:
* "D&D Ambience | Clockwork Plane | Mechanus, Steampunk World, Huge Gears, Ticking" by the channel "Michael Ghelfi - RPG Audio" [https://youtu.be/JiogkSyZrNE], see also @michael-ghelfi
* "Ambient Drone Metal Guitar" by the channel "Fuzzlord Effects" [https://youtu.be/6wXNxPWoX0g]


Other than the aforementioned samples, I used my humble Eurorack and my loop station to layer my sounds and the samples. Also, I used quite a compilation of guitar pedals. For example, the Arturia MicroBrute can sound quite a lot like an electric guitar, once you run it through a distortion effect, in my case the Boss ML-2 Metal Core pedal. 

I incorporated the samples and a vast amount of sounds and settings, and recorded the stereo in Audacity, which I used in post-production to extract the best parts from that jam session in order to create this track. As always, I only used basic audio editing techniques like simple crossfades. Only a touch of soft limiting was applied, no elaborate approaches like mastering were used whatsoever. Thus, the result is raw and highly dynamic in nature, so put on your favourite headphones and turn up that volume knob, because the Loudness War is for losers!

Most of my tracks can be downloaded for free, and I encourage you to use them in your jam sessions and live sets. If you use any of my material, I really would like to know what you could come up with. So drop me a message and please give a shout-out to Mrs. Audio Boy! This track, though, is not downloadable, since I used too much of the Lesa Listvy's and NIN's tracks and didn't transform them enough for my liking. Give these two a listen and compare them to my track to see which parts I incorporated into my jam session.

I hope you enjoy!

Swarm Ambiance [Jam session sections: RAW2021 - 6]

Mrs. Audio Boy is a proud member of Project:Music (@projectmusicsounds) and MintFam (@mintfam), and is a German-based project, which creates experimental electronic music by the process of conducting jam sessions, improvising during these sessions, recording them, and then using best parts from those sessions to create so called "Jam session sections" (manually, no AI whatsoever). These are generally raw sound clips that are mostly left unprocessed apart from using a simple cross-fade in order to tie two or more clips together. Only very rarely some simple effects like filters, compressors or noise reduction are applied. 

In doing so, the special one-of-a-kind moment is pursued; thus, the created sound is highly inimitable and unreproducible. Most of the tracks can be downloaded. If you use them, please give a shout-out to Mrs. Audio Boy!
