Most of the time when I watch stuff on youtube, it's a casual activity. But when you post a new set I get out my studio cans, go to a quiet place with no distractions, and make it my entire existence for a while. And then I usually go back to watch it again a few times over the next few weeks so I can really absorb it. It's that good.

@ToyKeeper 6 жыл бұрын

More specifically, you have a good ear for sound design, harmonics, sound combinations, expressive tonal changes over time, building and breaking, the use of space / sparseness, interesting chord progressions, and painting an overall warm and welcoming scene which feels like a vibrant sunset for my ears. My favorite so far is the set you turned into 35 Winters.

Thanks heaps it really means a lot that you'd take the time to listen to my noodlings so thoughtfully. I just squeeze them out so it's lovely to know that they resonate out there. Cheers :)

It's clear from some of your other videos that you're capable of more... like the theme of 2017, for example. But at this point in my learning process, your simpler compositions are a lot more educational for me. It's like chasing a rabbit -- close enough for me to see, but far enough ahead to guide me a fair distance in the right direction. Meanwhile, your more advanced works are far enough ahead I can't really even see the rabbit. BTW, do you get synesthesia, like hearing colors or seeing sounds? Your sound design has unusually good synesthetic color and texture harmony that I don't often encounter, so I wonder if you also perceive it as more than just sound.

ToyKeeper I have Synaesthesia, I can tell you this melody matches Drax - Amphetamine which many artists do refind and re-imagine. I do agree. Great composition! ;). It’s trance from our generation!

I picked up the peak & was thinking of getting the Digitone next this video has certainly embedded that idea, it's not often i sit through these things all the way through let alone twice so well played. I wondered did you have any external effects with this setup?

Feel free to keep your secrets but figured I'd ask anyway! Killer stuff....bought the album on bandcamp today
