A very interesting piece, lovely and dark, just the way I like my ambient.
Great use of samples and found sound.

Good stuff
James.

Thank you!

Yes, pressure cookers and drills can sometimes cause brain fog!

Interesting experimental piece! The sounds are definitely ‘dark’. Nicely done!

Speaking of ‘fog’, one of the sounds definitely puts me in mind of a light house fog horn. Would you be interested in sharing what software tools you used to create this?

Thank you! The sounds were recorded using a Zoom H5, I used Adobe Audition to filter out the noise and also make a C major Triad tone out of the water cooker.

I then imported it into Logic Pro X where I reversed the water cooker recordings and added lots of reverb. It's also side-chained to the drill recording, which has a very wet reverb
As for the noise bits, I put the drill recordings into the ESX24 sampler and made a "synth" out of them with a lot of delay and a Chord Trigger.

So you have a hardware sampler? I have a Roland SP404-SX Linear Wave Sampler that comes in pretty handy- samples can be reversed, and effects applied in real time, as well as in recording them into the sampler. The length of the samples also are limited only by the amount of space on an SD card. I cannot, however, assign the samples to a midi keyboard, unless I export them and do it in FL Studio sampler or the Qasar Beach Fairlight CMI emulation.
