The dark mood you managed to create here with glitches, hollow pads, heavy beats and bass and all is absolutely amazing.

But one can find in this avalanche of darkness some relief too, there were some parts, with lighter pads, that sounded like a shelter. That contrast makes it even more beautiful and fascinating.

That was a wonderful trip SGN, especially with the headphones. Definitely faved.

Thanks a lot Alxsix. And yup, this is meant for headphone listening, as is most of my music. Although this does sound pretty decent played really loud as well...the bass stabs in particular.

Cheers for the listen and the review.

Glitch is a genre that is rarely seen on this site due to the lacking amount of people who produce it, so when I saw this its like I had to click it. I'm glad to say that I wasn't at all dissapointed with this track. The slow beeping noises over the top of the wind effects, bass drops and other FX were fantastic. The whole atmosphere is incredibly dark. Its not the sort of thing you want to listen to by yourself in a dark room, because you will be scared. The pads midway though are quite nice though, and sort of bring a peacefulness to the darkness that the track engulfs the listener in. The vocal(?) sample in the middle is pretty awesome as well, and the tinkling bell noises are insanely relaxing, but it always feels like theres something not quite right, an uneasy feeling amongst the happier noises.

This is quite an incredible piece of music, able to invoke contrasting and conflicting emotions into the listeners mind.

Well done.

Fav'd.

Thanks for the great review, Stephen. I was initially gonna put this track under "Ambient", but then I thought people looking for a normal ambient track (you know, something you can just close your eyes and relax to) won't exactly enjoy this. I'm glad the "glitch" part appealed to you.

This initially was mainly a peaceful ambient song with the glitchy percussive bits and dissonance in the background intact, and the initial "dark" part was just four bars, but then I decided to develop the eerie side of it and that was probably for the best.

Anyway, thanks once again for the listen and the review.

Description : I'm gonna file this under Drum and Bass due to the beats I used. Though it's probably not DnB in the strictest sense of the word, as it starts off with a Cinematic vibe till the beats kick in (apologies for that, as I don't have a vast knowledge of DnB!). Apart from the beats and a couple of other loops, all synth/bass parts are played by me using ThornCM, Poly Max and Z3ta+ vst's. Let me know what you think? All feedback is always appreciated. Thanks.

Description : Technology is a great thing. But I'm glad to know that if it ever fails ... or simply isn't there ... I can always play my guitar or drums, or just sing. In any case, the power didn't go out during this production ... so it's electric. And eclectic.
