Been thinking about posting here for a while after lurking for a while. Here's my soundcloud for my electronic project, Wave Collector

I have a lot more on Spotify/Bandcamp, but some faves are up here. Would love to hear what you think!

Probably my favorite track that's up there is this one:

Thanks for listening :)

Well, in hindsight, I changed my mind. I've updated the mix. Same link: https://soundcloud.com/roadsofbalatran/time

This was awesome, by the way. Beautiful, great vocals!

Great stuff. I love those kinds of sounds. Did you sample striking a glass with a piece of silverware?
Thanks so much! I'm not sure which part you're talking about, but the main sample that comes in at the beginning is a wind chime. There are some other fun samples, like a time stretched machine from an antique store, though honestly I recorded it so long that I don't remember exactly what it is! It's the part that kinda sounds like a typewriter. Also some guitar samples recorded in a friend's studio.

Thanks for listening!

I like the sound that starts at about 1:54, along with the way the whole mix pulls back a bit there and sounds more open. It's a bit avant garde compared to the rest obviously but when it hits that point I feel like I'm sitting in an actual space hearing the sounds around me, it's cool and pretty unique.

Thank you! I am always happy when something feels unique or interesting. That's the one I mentioned in the earlier comment, I can't actually remember what it is, but it was some kind of mechanical device at an antique store. I used flex time to sync it to the beat. I just wish I could remember what the device was! I recorded a lot of sounds at the same place in one day and some I didn't use for 5+ years.

Ah that’s what it was, yes the wind chime! Sampling stuff is fun, and so redeeming when it sounds nice. I recorded someone’s staple gun from far away, amplified the heck out of it, and got some great drum sounds.

That is always so satisfying! There are amazing kicks, snares, hihats, and toms happening all around us every day
