The Cautious Optimist
Turned an old Reason 5 demo from October 2013 into a wee ambient piece. Recorded everything 2nd Nov. 2023. The (kind of lame) piano patch is from Yamaha TG500, through some pedals and recorded on my old 70s Pioneer tape deck. End arpeggio is 101.
Footage is from the viewpoint at Castle Semple Loch, Lochwinnoch.

'Treetops' (2013) - 2023 Rework
Переглядів 627Рік тому
Revisiting a very old recording of mine from 2013/2014. The original track was one of my first attempts at ambient/electronic music (pre-EPs etc.) and was based around this really broken sounding, heavily filtered organ sample. For this version I took the full original sample and made a tape loop from it, which I'm playing in live on the Tascam 424. I think this just makes it sound a bit more u...
'Up With The Dawn': 4 track tape demo recording
Переглядів 1,5 тис.Рік тому
linktr.ee/paulgstewart Taking a break from recording my new album to mess about with the 4 track. Tried to adhere to a pretty strict old-school approach of bouncing down tracks to another deck then back into the Tascam for overdubs, then back into the second deck again for final mix. I enjoy the challenge and limitations of this method of recording, its a bit humbling and forces you to be organ...

'Skipping Stones'
Переглядів 354Рік тому
From a trip down to the loch on 12th November 2022. I was working on a tune and really wanted the sound of skipping stones on ice, but couldn't find any decent recordings or videos online to sample from. I was hoping the loch would freeze over a bit at least this winter so that I could go down and make my own recordings and it did for the first time in a while which was cool. I've kept the vide...

Recording Impulse Responses in a Stairwell (April 2022)

A sort of "part 2" to my previous (and much cooler) video of recording impulse responses in a derelict chapel (ua-cam.com/video/YG2Ys8awtSA/v-deo.html). Still got loads of ideas of places I want to do this in, so I intend to make this a bit of a series. I love the whole concept of IRs. I always forget that all you need is a balloon and a mic (you could totally get away with a phone nowadays). A...

    This song is a liminal space, a quiet, warm and sad liminal space. Listening to this gives me the feeling you get when you are running a high fever and on medication, when you are shivering under the covers but you feel strangely cosy and eerily high on those medicines, those moments when you can't distinguish your waking moments from your dreams. You feel afraid but calm at the same time. A truly existential experience, this is how close I can get to putting this song in words.

    I have watched enough of your videos to know your influences I think. And it comes through in your music. I get Brian eno vibes from this one, but with a touch of William basinski, Harold budd. But the other day I heard an amazing ambient song for the first time and I literally was like, “this sounds like a Paul g Stewart”. You are up there with the best of them man. What ever you do, keep exploring and experimenting and making music. There aren’t that many people making the type and quality of music you’ve been putting out.
