Bonobo Challenges The Electrical Storm - N0mad23

Play 2 now...

The random:
This one takes me back about a year when I first started really messing with ambient tracks (named one similar too- Summer Thunderstorm, more atmospheric in nature).

The good:
I love the subtle bits of synth on this and though the mechanical sounding stuff kinda gets away from the natural element of a storm, they do give it a nice tribal-like edge. All-in-all it makes me think of some kinda storm-within situation (like an assembly plant on the fritz or something)

The bad & suggestive:
Opps, I just looked and this isn't categorized as ambient, it's fusion (my bad, silly me). Hmm, I'm thinkin that given all of the different elements in this track you could maybe experiment with volume fade-ups for each thing (like have a few moments where the drums punch up and are main stage, fall them back and bring up the leads, and so on). Might stand to give the piece more interest and a greater dynamic range. Lates!

lol saw you on the most amazing tracks on looperman forums with this song so i thought that i should check it out. nice work on this one. wow the atmosphere that builds is amazing! the work you put into this one sprays out of my speakers like a brilliant painting! this is awesome. it seems to tell a story too. whered you get that rain loop? would love to remix that!

What a trip! Very cool, this sounds like an awesome trip to the planetarium, lol!! Thought the rainstorm was cool and then "your" percussion kicked in and then the very cool, trance like synths came in and I was sucked in.... Very cool tune dude!!

This is a very exciting track! You can always be relied upon to please my ears, especially with the variety of instrumentation which you use. There is always something fresh in your work, something unexpected. I love all these layers, they just seem to fall right into place together. Such depth to this song, you've really outdone yourself. Very cool work!

I LOVE looking through your track list!!! With no one else's track list have I ever felt like each title is just it's whole own universe of fresh, glossy rooted all the way back to the start and with it's paws in tomorrow, all wrapped up and propriately labeled, ready for consumption. this is exactly like an idea i was thinking about earlier today that i might do for my next "epic" thing. like i was reading a bit in a book on mythology, and was thinking how interesting that these stories that were written 1000-3000 years ago written way back then are still received today, and how far technology has come, and how we here on this site kind of create a universe of perception in our tracks, and where the technology will be quickly - able to create entirely absorbing multimedia experiences and share them across the web, got your cool holo helmet or whatever - and just the possibilities ...... of course, that one day, you wake up, and all your life was virtual and you were growing in some dude's bathtub while he harvested you for teeth and organs. eeew. Lovely universe around me now man. i love this track. so not budging in texture and sticky grit, but still cool and smooth as it glides up past me rough. lovely.

Anther great track with atmospherics - in a word "Intense" - great work.

Every time I hear this track, and hear the way it continues to evolve, it grows ever more mezmerizing. I love the title. I can almost visualize this clash of spiritual entities and natural forces. Like some god like battle between the forces of nature and human kind. Very surrealistic, and hypnotic amongst all the chaos. Just listening to the style, I can see we work along the same lines of creativity. Keep doing this stuff. The world needs this kind of sound exploration!

Hi,
The title is already worth the review!Once again,this track has a whole imagery and madness in it.Very hypnotic track

MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN THAT DAMN GOOOOOOD!!!!!!!
Lets collab)) if this is possiable)))

Very nice, The wall of sounds in this, the mesh that fits so perfectly together, like a jigsaw. The pieces slotting perfectly together. It just works.
I can say no more.

Fantastic.

I really dig the beginning...the storm briNgs a uNique nice touch. There is plenty of creativity in the soNg...caN't wait to hear more. Rock oN!

I love your work. Totally original. This new track keeps the faith in my opinion. Strange, transcendel, organic and at the same time deeply interesting. Keep them comin'

i love the feeling.. there is a fantastic sense of imminent death... in fact, for some reason it made me think of imminent death...
I am gonna be really completely honest with you n0mad23, as , really all we are, are musicians with avatars, and you remember about a month ago? when all those thunderstorms came out thru washington?... i was in east washington, and thru my depressive and frustrated state, i drove into the storm, and parked in the heart of it, and walked around screaming and cursing at God.

I lived, and that has to mean something...

maybe personal experiences have to do with replays on a track?

gonna download this and listen some more tomorrow.

Faved.

yeah its hard to get that revision EXACTLY the way you want it sometimes.
i have learned myself really well when it comes to revisions.
you just gotta know what you want and how you want it.

but yeah, nice track man

nice track man.
this is COMPLETELY different from the music i usually listen to.
its always good to mix things up, and this track is the perfect way to do so.
diggin the drums hardcore!!

Cool track. I like the layered drums : Central Africa meets Berlin electro heads. Thought the drums could vary a bit later on in the track, maybe shift them in relation to the main beat or something.

Another great track, the more I listen the more I like it,be careful if you close your eyes for too long cause you could end up in a place far, far away....
thanks for sharing this !

Great work man... love the work u've done. its really different from the way we've ever used boduberu. Hope i get a chance to upload more loops soon. Thank you.

nice1. True and real. Begging for a remix to give it a even darker side.

n0mad i like this best of ur tracks (that i've heard) - the drone holds it all together and I too found it quite soothing!

ps - did u get to check out Ozric Tentacles yet?

Great Tune! i love the feel your getting with it! Sounds like it could be opened up into a bit of DnB...with some distorted guitar doing a riff and a fast beat in the back. i like it a lot buddy!

Chris

loving this.....you really put a great touch to that loop....love how you can feel out what i was feeling when i wrote it...
