Aftermath of Sunlight (WIP, feedback welcome)

This track is still experimental, but completed enough to put up on the experiments page (in case I never get further with it):

060125:  052325 000001 000072t -- first public version

A slightly remixed version 052325 000001 000073u is here:

Most of the "percussion" is assorted mangled sounds from the misuse of a broken piano, a cello, and other semi-musical-instrument-like things, mostly from a copmany called Sampletraxx.  Some of them are from a free decentsampler instrument Squidpipes but I didn't use the instrument, just mangled some of the individual raw samples as percussive elements.  The kick drum is presently the only actual percussion instrument in there, and that will be replaced with another one as soon as I create it (it's tough to get that just right).

The vocal pieces are assorted mangled and modified bits from a few different orchestral bundles, and some raw samples from a children's choir insturment. 

Some of the strings sounds are also from the same bundles, cut up and modified as needed.   

The background synth is Z3TA2+, and the bassline stuff later in the song is another few different modified and mangled sounds from various bundles.  

The piano is the TruePianos Amber module.  

There are a few other bits and pieces I don't recall the sources of, out of my folders of sounds.  (I think there is at least half a terabyte of stuff to choose from at this point).

Ya know, I tried to use that as the category to put it in but it wasn't in the dropdown...

 

It wasn't too loud, or bassy, this time?

BTW, this (Pre-Cast Shadows) is it's companion track, still very much a WIP more even than Aftermath of Sunlight:

It's built on hte percussive section from Aftermath of Sunlight; so far only has the first minute or so of what will be something longer.   

Most likely these will become a "single track' at some point, or a matched set, or something...whatever they call it in real music when there's several related pieces of music that go together but can be listend to separately.  Movements?
