Lynn Wilson Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 This is one of the best things I've heard from you, and it cheers me up! You have such a sophisticated library of sounds and the knowledge of how to use them, and it just gets better each time. It makes me want to go back to the drawing board 1
Douglas Kirby Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 The dark side of Bjorn - I liked it - I always enjoy your stuff - well done. By the way, that Heavyocity Vocalise is cool.
bjornpdx Posted January 30, 2021 Author Posted January 30, 2021 Jack and tom, I appreciate the comments. Thanks Lynn, wow thanks for the kind words (where do I send the check, ha ha). I truly appreciate them. Doug, Thanks. Yeah Heavyocity Vocalise has some of the best and useful sounds out there. 1
Bajan Blue Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 this is way cool Bjorn - i really really liked this - made my Sunday Cheers Nigel 1
paulo Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) This has a very cinematic quality to it - I could easily imagine this set to some kind of slo-mo dream sequence / memory / recap scene. I do like textural pieces, though some can be a bit boring to me if they go on too long, but you managed to keep it interesting. Edited January 31, 2021 by paulo 1
garybrun Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 Well done Bjørn. Some really high frequencies in there. (pan well and somehow grab your attention) Strange slurry notes too... felt like I was being sucked into something with this track. 1
Hidden Symmetry Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 Enjoyed this Bjorn, also think this one of my fav tracks of yours. 1

Starise Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Good mix here. The theme is definitely dark feel to me. The moving drone in the background gives it a meditative feel. 1
bjornpdx Posted February 2, 2021 Author Posted February 2, 2021 Nigel, Hidden, Daryl, Paulo, Hidden, Tim - Thanks for taking the time to comment Gary - Thanks. NI Reaktor has some strange sounds, well suited for drone-y ambient music.
Amicus717 Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Hi Bjorn, This track sounds great, and develops nicely. I really like it a lot. Great use of Vocalise, by the way -- very organic and natural. Rob 1
SUPAREELS Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 It reminds me of Pink Floyd .. sort of an Ummergumma'ish .. Just needs Davids guitar to come in .. Love it Bjorn ..really ? Steve 1
Wookiee Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 The only darkness was that caused by the closed furry eyelids @bjornpdx this is sweet, nice evolving sounds, very Tangerine Dream I like 2
mark skinner Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 Bjorn , I really enjoyed this. I thought it sounded very "cosmic" Your vocals were great , but you sing like a girl .. mark 2

bjornpdx Posted February 7, 2021 Author Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) Rob- Thank you. Steve- I didn't make the Pink Floyd connection but now that you mention it.. Thanks Wookie - Thanks. Earlier versions of this sounded way more TD than the final version. Mark - Thanks. The girl singer is from Vocalise. My singing is sort of Leonard Cohen on helium. Edited February 8, 2021 by bjornpdx
noynekker Posted February 7, 2021 Posted February 7, 2021 Bjorn . . . very nice bit of ethereicity . . . didn't find it so dark, more relaxing and reflective, but maybe that's just me. Lol, "Leonard Cohen on helium" . . . my best laugh this week. It's very introspective . . . and kept my attention in that vein. Well done, once again ! 1
