I have to say I'm loving all of these tracks highlighting the Newmello collection, esp. vintage prog sounding stuff like this is fantastic!

God - Wax Audio (John Lennon cover)

Newmello II took me back in time to the early waves of progressive rock and new age music, drawing from a history of classical/baroque counterpoint. Features the Upright Piano and Upright Bass as they play their melody lines and other "friends" get introduced along the way. This was so fun to make, layering line after line! I had a spine-chilling moment when I introduced the Distorted Guitar @ 1:20. Even without drums, it sounds very punchy and driving.

Newmello II | TORLEY - Layered Rituals

I also sort of had an oblique, but not direct Boards of Canada or It Follows vibe when working on these — a question of selective memory recalling the best bits from one's childhood, hope mixed with fear. This track also features Upright Piano and Upright Bass. The name is in reference to the Shirley Jackson story, a thing of victory and dread. When you come across a small town and it seems happy but there all is not what it seems.
