Not another spacey instrumental? Lumineferous Aether

[Xoo]

Should be subtitled "Groove on a G for 5 minutes", this is a new track that's going to be on a forthcoming album "Dusty Starbursts and Luminous Quasars".

It's the first track I've played bass guitar on for a few years, so I may have over-egged it a bit in the Rickenbacker department.

Very cool sounding track. Nice job!

Interesting; spacey, that's a good description.

I don't think so.

Only crit, bring that guitar track up so its a bit more in focus (but I'm a guitar player, so its always "more me")

 Cool track ! I really expected an all synth production but got a bonus with the guitars and bass. I liked the tension you brought out with the Indian/Arabic sounding runs.  Enjoyed it ..  mark

@Kevin Perry Elements of Steve Hillage's Luna Musick Suit, this is nice stuff.

Thanks everyone.  I love Steve Hillage's guitar work, so that's an amazing comparison for me ?

I really loved the soundscape with the opening synths and pads.   And then the guitar hit and that took it too another level. But as I listened further, it seemed to me that it had trouble resolving into whether it was in a major or minor key.  The opening synths seemed to be mostly on major chords, when the guitar came in the backing synths were minor, but the guitar was still playing major scales.  So the sound was very cool, but also left me a little confused trying to figure out the tonality.

Really like the spacy sounds at the beginning

Nice backing bass track and the guitar sounds really good playing over it. Might be a bit repetitive though?
