Thank you for describing what has been difficult to describe my entire life. There are certain sounds when I would hear them even as a boy that would make me feel this immense not quite sad feeling but almost a longing aching for something or someone from the past that you had lost. not quite loneliness, not quite sadness, not quite grief. but its that feeling in the side of your ribs when you ache with despair for some reason. That signature Pad from ED makes me feel that way when I hear it. it's almost a melancholic-nostalgic ennui feeling that I am sure another language than English could describe better. For me that was the starting point. to build around this" feeling" with changing percussion and other worldly vocals that reminded you of Late sixties star trek theme or the psychedelic movement out of SF. Thanks for pointing out what was hard for me to pin down in this tune. Thats the sign of great ears my friend.

Ed this project has been nothing but a pleasure to do. I fell in love with that pad loop and started off in four different directions with it. this song is the most reasonable approach. Take yourself a bow, you earned it , on this site your Pads and songs contribute to all of us and inspire us to make great music. so chin chin if you have a glass!
Steve

HE Bleep. The fact you point out the aerian sound of the pad is what draws me to Ed's Pads in the first place. They are very complex and sound amazing. With the first pad in the song listening to it gives me this hollow feeling inside of longing for something nostalgic. So I tried to make some of the vocals have a sixties reverb feel (slightly overdriven mike) Sort of Star trek theme (TOS), B52's Planet Claire. to fill that nostalgic hole and yet use moer sounds (Subs, yes) and organ stabs and cool sounding panned drums. This song went through 4 phases but I was happy with the end result.
Cru

Ahh yes the elephant in the song. The percussion is what pushes this tune along. Thanks for noticing.

Cool, Ed's pads are intricate and not easy to incorporate in song.

Thank you my friend!

Hey Greg, not familiar with your games, per say, but I do know my Techno. You should look into Detroit techno, and Berlin tresor techno. 2 schools of sound that will blow your mind.

"The Halloween is near."

reminds me of a great tune from Judas Preast...Sinner.
Rob sings: "The Sinner is near, sensing the fear
And the beast will start movin' around
Can't you see their souls calling out in their brain
Can't you hear their blood is boiling setting them alight"
