The lead character reflects on events that unfolded during the 1990s, while the producer struggles with removing audible clicks from his DAW.

this is great :::: the pensive spoken word sounds all the warmer with those hanging chords and cresting arps nestled underneath. i especially like the saturated, atonal tensions that emerge from the three-minute mark onwards.

i really enjoyed your soundscape. thank you.

I remember the 90’s as well… this is such a cool tune. Love how everything works so well together to make something that is greater than the sum of its parts. I like the clicks as well. Really cool listen.

@amelea 2d

Ahhh! Now this is what I'm talking about. Very moving piece. What a cool medium for this story... Leaves me thinking.

Hey, you made it on FAWM and posted a 4+ minute spoken-word art piece! I don't know what happened to your silly song plan, this is like a group therapy session set to hypnotic space music, which is actually pretty cool and creative. Were those analog effects for the feedback?

@zid_xerox 2d

I know like what happened to my plan 😂?! I think this track was born when I picked up an analog overdrive pedal from music-go-round and ran a synth through it. It brought out such a mood in the sound I just wanted to capture. Oh and the echo+feedback? It is (gasp) a plug-in : the PSP Audio Echo 😇.

The music has a great pensive quality to it. It works very well with the spoken-word narration over it. I also like the way it distorts after the echo on "start over again." Very well done.

Thanks man, I appreciate it. The last minute or so of the track was me seeing how this infinite tape-loop-feedback would develop and saturate.
