Definitely worth the effort! It sounds like you stumbled across some eudaimonia! This is beautiful; thank you for bringing it to life :)

Nice evolving track! I like the atmosphere!

Sometimes you don't hear the simple handiwork that went into a track, and I'm not usually the teller of the background story. But in this case, the sequence was a WAV I found in a UseMeLater folder, and I remembered doing the tape effects for real with a modified 4-track recorder some years ago. I liked the recording and wanted to use it. But the slowed down and wobbly tape had changed the character of the sequence so much (and constantly changing) that I couldn't actually use it anymore (hence UseMeLater). And even now, I never was able to return to the original scale or speed. To get the synchronicity I wanted, I had to cut the 2-minute sequence into many short snippets, mostly 4 plucks, and glue them back together, which was an epic job. On the other hand, the now very different sound (compared to the source, I think it was the then new Korg NTS-1 I was testing, as digital as 0101) was worth the effort.
