thank you! i've been doing a lot of stuff like this lately, cold weather always has me returning to drone

clearly a man of taste

thought I recognized it

​@@patrickmcloughlin2954 i'll often make a half dozen or so recordings with the same loops over the course of a week or so, so that when i go back to make an album months later i'll have all of these thematically linked demo tracks that can be linked together into a single more complex track. basically i view every demo track as just being extended variations on a single part of a complete song (but sometimes i like to preserve the original demos as well, if i want to vibe on the more repetitive/sparse version of something)

i would love to put that one out on vinyl some day!

Thank you! I really appreciate you saying that - at this point, you might be one of my longest time listeners (since way back before even the first album came out, and now we're up to album #25). I'm already tossing around some ideas for the next one, not sure when it'll emerge but it definitely will at some point...

@@owengilbride3086I'm excited for it! Your music really cheers me up, and I find it perfect for a sunny day. I'd also be very curious to hear some of your live sets:) What is your setup? Do you do a lot of improvising on the spot, or is it more controlled? I always think about maybe doing some live performances, but my live experience is very limited. I'm terrified of drowning the listeners with sub bass, or having it be too bright and drilling the audience haha I guess if you want to make an omelette... As I'm listening to this again, I can hear it in a Luc Besson movie. Something very stylish and spacey. Like a Fhloston Paradise dance party.

@@tiadiad Glad to hear it :) For my live sets, I guess I've had a variety of approaches: sometimes more DJ style, where I'll be mixing my own tracks live & trying to layer them in new ways, usually not planned out ahead of time (for this I've recently been using a free software called Mixxx which has a lot of cool features like auto bpm/key detect). Sometimes I'll get a bit looser & basically just make a track live from scratch (one time I recall I had a set where I just opened up Buzz and started messing around with gens for like half an hour). And of course during more experimental phases I like to do improvised noise sets using whatever I have handy. When I first started I had a couple of unpleasant surprises hearing tracks for the first time ever on big speakers, but in general I'm usually pretty happy with how a mix comes out sounding in a room (especially now that I work with better headphones!). And funny you mention Luc Besson! I feel like Mœbius was an influence at various points making this album, and probably watching The Fifth Element was my first exposure to his style

thank youu! i played a live set on the weekend w/ some unreleased stuff, will hopefully post it once the organizer sends me a recording

I think no bass dance music has an effect of drawing the listener closer. Bass can be very decisive sometimes, and tracks like this one feel more breathy in a way. I love this! Btw, I noticed you dropped an entire album recently, can’t wait to check it out when I get the time!

@@tiadiad I was actually having a conversation about this irl the other day! imo bass often (not always) has this function of grounding music, of making it feel more conventionally "musical" or structured. With music that's mostly/all high end i feel like it opens up space for more subtle gradations of sound texture. And yes I did put an album out just a little over a week ago! First one in two years, I feel pretty good about it

Thank you!

I’m doing the same thing rn 🤯

ty ty i'm playing a live set this weekend, might try to record it and post it here too

ty i gradually want to get more elaborate with them

yo owen I can send you the discord invite if you want

Finally making progress on the next album! I've got like two years worth of material to sort through though so it's gonna take a minute. Also hoping to do some proper music videos some day soon...

@@owengilbride3086so hyped🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Yeah I figured something like that had happened. Gonna be back from the holidays either tomorrow or the next day, will get this sorted then

@@owengilbride3086 Need a link to Pointyscribes?

have been wanting to get back into physical media, hopefully soon!

Thank u for your support :)

Thank you! I'm hoping to re-upload most of my old albums to this channel eventually because a lot of them currently aren't available online. Probably not in order of release, just in order of which ones i remember the most

@@owengilbride3086 I think that's a great idea! You've made some great music over the years and the world deserves to have it on display. There is a conviction in your work which is inspiring. Like you know that what you are making is good, and you believe in it with your whole heart. I've really been enjoying your work, and am a fan🧑‍🌾

Happy Birthday!

@@owengilbride3086 thank you homie me and cleric always look forward to your uploads keep dropping them bangers

ive wanted to do music + sound fx for a game for ages. it's almost happened a number of times but nothing realized to date!

i grabbed the name of this track from a textbook i picked up the last time i was at the bookstore (which i bought entirely based on the title). hoping to get to it once i finish off a couple of the other books i'm working on
