Matt, nicely put together. Good to hear from you again. Well, thought out. Maybe you can throw a
story into it.

Cheers Killerbill - I think (hope?) one day I will feel confident with including a lyrical component, whether my own, or finding someone who shares my own ideas about how my tracks are formed.

We'll see... that's the thing with this funny old life... things have a way of changing!

nice when i was listening to this it almost became background music to me thinking i was in my own universe, but then again thats the power of weed! matt how old are you?

matt's picture

Ha! Glad ya liked it mate. I'm just about to turn 27 :)

I loved it. It first started reminding me of Silent Hill 4, when he first found himself locked up in the apartment.
Now i'm gonna have nightmares though of zombies tonight. Way to go Matt. just kidding. Good job! :0)

I'm in with the chorus, very good stuff. What I heard from the tones and the title was a political commentary being read in a monologue over the music, on the futility of government policies and plans - however well meaning they end up coming to nothing or even backfiring, through indifferance, apathy, incompetance, ambition or greed. Lots of stuff to get you sparking there.

I don't know your political leanings so I won't even attempt it ;-)

Nice track!

Ha ha cheers guys - glad you liked it. Hopefully I'll be able to post a few of the bits and pieces I've been tinkering with lately in the not too distant future!

This track to me conjures up a futuristic world a bit like the film I Robot, also as it is playing it's very easy for me to think of outer space and in particular a space ship slowly and smoothly passing by a glorious close-up view of a planet like Saturn.

Did you intend for it to sound futuristic Matt?, also do you agree that it sounds futuristic? As things can sound different to different people, and unfortunately I'm not on any weed at the moment ;) Very enjoyable track by the way. Ultra smooth and relaxing, well done!

I guess quite often I tend towards a pretty future techy sound ;) Sometimes its works, sometimes not.

Pretty sweet descriptions of the track around!

coolboy's picture

I know what you mean, some of my tracks are a little on the sci-fi sounding side too. It's all good!

Yeah they are...and funky too, and it IS all good. WAIT! I've got it... Combine a futuristic and reggae beat together for the ultimate funk...

I'm taking a little break at the moment and just keeping an eye on what's happening on MakeTunes and also trying to spend a bit more time upstairs with my family, but that's a nice idea for a future track Sole. Thanks for the compliment. ;)

Ya. I keep saying I need to take a break to. I mean, I created all those songs including Fmaily Man...since October. You know? That is alot of music to produce. Merry Christmas and enjoy the holidays. You and I can take our time anyways. We will be the third and fourth highest users ranked on this site anyways. Higher up the food chain. Breaks are allowed at this level. Hahaha.

coolboy's picture

Yes I'm proud to be up there with Matt and you too, and imikon but I've not heard from him since I joined.
Thanks Sole, you too, have a very nice Christmas, that's a mighty fine family you have there.
All the best. ;)

Matt...our Music Savior...if not for him, where would
the Musik go....

jimzsta's picture

i like this sound, when i listen it conjurs up an image of floating around in space with meteors and stuff floating past me,its a really strange and unusual sound. coooool!

matt's picture

Cheers man, I need to get some more of my studio tinkerings into a more complete state and upload em!

The Sole's picture

It ain't happenin' Matt. Remember? You don't have ninja-like concentration... or was that organization? I cannot remember which you had said before in a previous comment.
--Yes please upload them when you get them though Matt. Can't wait to hear!

matt's picture

Hehe yeah that was the ninja-like organization that is ever absent from my life. I better get that sorted ;)

brownedmund's picture

Matt,
It's interesting how you get such balanced and smooth mixes. Everything comes together so well. Curious where you're going with this one.

matt's picture

Hehe where I'm going with it - as with most of my musical tinkering these days, I have lots of unfinished snippets like this. Perhaps one day I'll get more focused on completion, but I ain't there yet ;)

Pitbull's picture

Hey matt!
Nice track especially the riff that sounds as if you were on a trip in the universe
if youve got time could you guys please give me some feedback on my track "another day chillin"
thx P!tbull

dereckhiggins's picture

This is a nice track with warm sounds. Reminds me a little of music by David Sylvian or his brother Steve Jansen, two of my favorites.

matt's picture

Hey thanks very much fellas - appreciate the comments.

Plazmatix's picture

Yeah man... Looks like you are in experimental music. Sounds like microscopic sound. Am i right? Why to me it is pleasant its accessory to the basic direction to electronic sound of my native country and... of course because it's a great track! Special for ukrainian Nexsound label. Good job. Very good!

matt's picture

Yep a lot of my tracks are quite experimental electronica I guess, keeps things interesting for me!

Thanks for the feedback Plazmatix

Plazmatix's picture

For real my project's name is !Plazmatix, could I change it?

matt's picture

Sorry usernames can only be letters and numbers.

The Sole's picture

Matt is right. But once you upload the song then you can tell it the name that you want again. I have an exclamation point beside my 'Welcome To Wonderland!" song. Just rename the mp3 differently is all you have to do.... You should be able to update it now.

matt's picture

Oh I thought he was meaning his "Plazmatix" username?

The Sole's picture

Now you have me wondering too Matt.

D.N.A. Experience's picture

Really good , very relaxing i enjoyed that .

I love the ambient feeling ...

Great stuff mate good work [[[]]]

matt's picture

Thanks dude - hopefully this year as well as work stuff I'll have more time to put together some more music into a relatively finished form ;)

D.N.A. Experience's picture

Nice i look forward to it ...

your music is something special mate ... keep going ;P

illusivemind's picture

Yeah this is sweet, whenever I try to make more downtempo stuff I get overexcited and invariably the tempo goes straight back up!

-just a thought-

matt's picture

Cheers guys, thanks for the support.

Yeah I know what you mean Illusive... I had a couple of years where I was producing almost entirely frenetic drum n bass tracks, and actually ended up remixing some of them at 1/2 the bpm as the core of downtempo tracks, which I also like ;)

Great quote Sir_Input, and a real nice track Matt! I know you spend a lot of time with this great site, but it's good to know you still find time to create good music too. Hope you keep it up. And thanks for creating a place like this where we can support each other. Thanks!
