Another extraordinarily impeccable composition, this one evoking a vision of slow and dreamlike movement through Gas Clouds, Nebulae and effervescent Star Nurseries. So far, far, far from home, a home which anymore only exists as a dimming memory and ne'er to be seen again. The final journey of a once-intrepid Starman, arcing onwards on a trajectory neverending. Peaceful, yet visceral. Beautiful, but bittersweet. Into The Void....
I really like this. I don't have any knowledge of music theory or the technical aspects of how something like this is made, but I really appreciate how music and/or sfx can set a mood or a tone. I love how stuff like this can inspire the imagination or just help the listener relax. So, kudos to the creator!
Hey, thank you for your kind feedback! I'm particularly happy if somebody enjoys a piece like this which can be a bit difficult to approach or just outright boring. Thank you for listening! 🙂
Hey, thank you for listening! I guess, it's holiday season and, perhaps, many take a break from YT. And this kind of very slow and a bit noisy music is probably not everybody's taste.
@MinorRandomNoise Well, of all the ways to approach music making, this might be in the top 10 - contrary to YT traffic. I see a solution here to exactly what I'm after. This went from Steve Roach (desert solitaire) to Pete Namlook (music for urban meditation) and beyond. Perhaps you can make a tutorial one day, or explain your workflow ? Of course we all will end up with different results - I'm just curious how you came to this point.
@@rossimatic2134 Well, my workflow is usually quite chaotic. In most cases, I just start with a small idea and add voices later along the way that I didn't plan up front. For example, the starting point of this piece was the discovery of the Surge XT Tuned Delay. I found that the module could modify the sound in a way that I hadn't heard with any other module. (The module is not self-explanatory for me, I had to read the documentation but it was worth the effort.) The chaotic modulation of the Sapphire Lark LFO is another important component that I added from the start. And I wanted to have microtonal harmonies (19edo in this case) but I believe that they don't have a very large impact and could be replaced by conventional 12edo harmonies without changing the character of the piece very much.
@MinorRandomNoise Thanks for the reply. Chaotic describes my workflow as well but success follows given enough perseverance and being open to happy accidents. But direction matters and what got my attention was some very musical sounds without being overly heavy handed with the sequencers. You've got a nice touch, sir ! I'll look into the tuned delay. I use vcv pro at this point only for midi processing, to add slew for example. For now I use arps and sequencers from vst's like UVI Falcon - but based on inspiration from stuff like yours will likely pivot one day to vcv.

Thank you for this beautiful picture of the music. I'm happy to read how it stimulates your imagination! 🙂

Why the lack of love for VCV? This is so good. Made it to 30min - I gotta work - but I'll be back !
