The beats relationships are great.. the sound transitions.. so it constantly feels fresh but cohesive. Love it, keep doin what you do.

@frozenlonesome 2d

This is so different from “strangely”. As you say many different ideas crammed into this one. I get a distinct eastern vibe. Like how it builds to suddenly stop. Great work.

@clocktoys 4d

You’ve crammed so much in here! Great use of delays and fx here giving a special momentum to the piece. There’s also a killer riff in there that you could build a song around on its own. 3rd listen now.

@itneverhappened 3d

Thanks Pete, good to hear! Parts of this had been lying around forever, don't think I've found the optimal order of them yet, but it could be something.

@freshspotlessyouth 4d

I really like this. Lots of ideas, yes, but also lots of execution. I love how all those guitars entwine. It invites one to enter the most meditative mosh pit ever. Rather like El Ten Eleven

@itneverhappened 3d

"The most meditative mosh pit ever", haha, i love that! Makes me want to start a new subgenre and really go for that.

@sollis 4d

Loving the bold panning choices once again! And your boldness with your arrangements is something else I adore - You give us a taste of one catchy section and then, wham, pull it away but give us another great riff. So much good stuff going on here. It's got the feel of a post-rock song but with a punk-like attitude of getting the whole song across in two and a half minutes or less!

@itneverhappened 3d

Haha, yes this one's a little too restless in stuffing everything in under three minutes, I think. Want to work with this a bit more and expand on some of the sections and cut others. Great to hear you like it as it is, though!

@danieldeshon 4d

Absolutely fantastic, intricate, searching tune! Love your tones, the fuzz was really awesome. Can’t wait to hear what you come up with next!

@itneverhappened 3d

Thanks a lot!

@mtmelodie 4d

Absolutely a lot of cool ideas crammed into this one, could probably make several songs by refining a few ideas, lot of great guitar sounds and riffs, nice

@ttg105 5d

Interesting progression ... almost sounds like Indian music. I like the layering of the different guitars and that squelchy sound and the classical guitar.

@headfirstonlyMod 5d

This feels like the sort of thing that the Surfaris might have gotten up to with today's technology. It really motors along splendidly and you're right—those ideas keep coming thick and fast; this is a masterclass in guitar production, from heavy fuzz and regeneration feedback to dotted eighth-note delays and reverse echo. Plenty of nods to instrumental classics from the past sixty years or so to savour from start to finish, too. Had to listen to this several times for maximum fun.

@itneverhappened 3d

I think you've commented on surf vibes in one of my tracks before, that's so interesting, how different musical styles and ideas travel around and influence each other and evolves and enters you subconsciously, I never thought of surf music when making this but you're probably right that some of the sounds originated there. Also got me to look up the Surfaris and be inspired to make another track. Thanks!

@theodamus 5d

This went darker and more intense than I thought it would at the start, i love the build - there was a moment in there i suddenly felt like we were heading industrial which is a real good vibe. Strong early 2000s hacker movie energy

@itneverhappened 3d

I love hearing other people's references to my tracks, feels like they come out of isolation and see all they really are. Early 2000s hacker movie was unexpected but fascinating! Thanks for listening and making me hear new things.
