Bob Macc of this forum liked it so much he sent me £2 for it on Bandcamp (that link).

I don't know how it will do really, but it's nice to know someone wants to hear it.

Took a lot of my time since Christmas. 3 months on an LP instead of a live album (which takes as long as it takes).

Drop a comment if you're feeling it, I think it's one of my best albums on the page, very similar to the first 4.

Thanks
Just listening to Benny Goodman while feeling thankful for an email alert of £1.51GBP funds sent to me for this music I made.
Like the library lodge jungle of my music? Then check out Next Phase Records and this track, "Zoot" by K3Bee.

Hi Foci's Left fan club. Got a ambient and noise soundscape for your ears. More visceral than my last. Contrasts in tone.
It starts off with cockpit check field recordings, and progresses to layered reverbed acoustic guitar.
Was aiming for a cross between Merzbow and Goldie's "Sea Of Tears" guitar timbre.
Hence I've named it "Ghost Ship Transistor Radio", as if we're breaking through to another dimension through gravity.
I won't be returning to this track very often, it's pretty filler, but someone out there might adore it.
That's the blessing of fans: everyone has a different experience of the same track.
I'll post this in the Ambient Lovers (FTAL search) thread when I get the track exported and cleared.
The closest comparison in my whole catalogue of mixes is my remix of "Untitled 3" by Statto's Metamorphosis old band.
latest upload from the sound design studio is 1411kbps Wav, "The Fate Of The Idle Randomite" by Longformacus, the alias of Foci's Left for drone tracks longer than four minutes (this track is a whopping twenty).

I'm intrigued to know what you think.

There's a lot of automation in this one - and I mean a LOT. Live playing, tweaked filters, coloration, reverb snapbacks, delay adjustments, volume shifts. Yet the pace is totally uncluttered and you can tell I have influences from Harry Bertoia and Delia Derbyshire CDs in my collection. It's a very analog sound, yet the production method is totally digital. It's very peace, very demure. There are frightening moments perhaps, but nothing bad.
Would work in a lot of DJ mixes or drone radio podcasts. And hopefully, it should attract more people to the upload site that haven't been there.
It is kinda weird how, as Liz Harris says, over time you get to the point as a producer and artist producer where you just feel, well, hopeless when over ninety per cent of your audience is always offline, but always, totally wilfully ignorant. People here aren't wilfully obscure, they're just wilfully ignorant. I don't hate anyone, especially people here, I'm just doing a Roy Walker, saying what I see like Catchphrase.

It's a good answer, but it's not right.

They (talent scouts, false people, complicated people, uncaring people) only care about themselves. Men, eh? Usually. What the fuck is wrong with them. No wonder so many here have broken up with their girlfriends. No wonder SC has exploded into a tragedy of love and war, Private Eye joking.

First, there is the distinct feeling of not being supported. People say they support you? They won't buy your stuff. I can guarantee you now, very few will attempt to listen to it. Everyone here on the whole is a hoarder, who disappeared up their own backside because the music was "cool" then.

After a while I lose so much hope in people who come here that I'd rather just put music out there in the way that a musician secretly dumps a large rock into a secluded lake. I did used to think of their ears, now I realized they don't care, so I can't be bothered. Hahaha

And in the end I do this cycle of disdaining the common listener again and again, because 99% of the time these people are brainless.
They listen to exactly what they want to listen to, they never compromise, they are like Kevin The Teenagers if you ask them to try anything.

The only reason everyone's a lurker here these days is because everyone is too busy being a truly antisocial piece of dog muck. Roll
End rant. What do you expect me to be, positive? There are no sales detected. One person bought this. I know things happen, but, mehhhhhhhh...

I am too far content to care about being paid, I do this for life, my lady et al, but honestly, get a grip and get involved. It's the internet...

Ed: on a lighter note..."Ten Times The World Lied" LP by Bvdub is on my stereo right about now. Smile
Been playing it loads. Got the download and Digipak CDRW. Smile

I'm sad, but I smile. I'm glad, I got out the bile.

Shhh Mike, if you accept a hug they might think you'll go away.
Another bright reality is that 340 people have viewed this thread.
If the website style interaction is anything to cheer- I forget this is basically a website- I basically love life even further.
Unfortunately, until the next relapse.
I can only apologize for being Mr Grumpig online. Thanks for the attention and love. Always helps.
