i will have to check out that temple bell sound you spoke of.
did you have a good holiday?

i'm aiming at a large block of production time this weekend, if all goes well. hopefully i will be able to work on a new project, and try out some of the FM synthesis you told me about.

i'm trying to find some great new VST plugins or synths. any suggestions?

At 9:32am on December 25, 2009, Rounder said…: i'm going to have to give that FM filter a try today when i'm a little less busy.
there was a great FM filter in Absynth i believe. i remember finding some nice bass tones with it.

At 7:06pm on December 24, 2009, Rounder said…: pertaining to your question on whether i make sounds from scratch or not, yes, i do. i find that it's immensely satisfying. although, you mentioned using pure synthesis with adobe 1.5 if i remember correctly. could you elaborate?

i'm very excited about creating more sounds. there's something gorgeous about having a total sound that you created...

At 7:04pm on December 24, 2009, Rounder said…: Reason and Ableton, eh? i'll definitely have to try a setup of that and see what happens. i've been having issues finding a suitable multitracking solution. in the past i was a big fan of Magix software, especially their audio studio applications, which gave me just what i needed to be able to polish off my music, but as of late i haven't kept up on what exactly is out there.

Waves is definitely a favorite of mine, for plugins. although i'm still on the lookout for some really great VSTs. i'm a bit of a collector of them.

i completely understand your comments on being pigeon-holed. i've been trying to find a niche, without having to stick to one strict style. people out there in music land tend to think you're only allowed one style and have a hard time adjusting to an artist that produces several sounds. it's odd, and honestly, a bit unfair.

At 4:40pm on December 23, 2009, Rounder said…: 90 tracks!!! that's what impressed me when i saw your profile, the amount of material. beautiful. simply amazing that there is such a wealth of 'you' there.

i'm trying to head into a different direction with 'Plains' and 'Solitude and Memories'. i want more ambience, more thoughtfulness, and more emotion, specifically that "youthful solitude on a summer afternoon" kind of lonely emotion.

looking very much forward to your comments on the recording process. i'm with you on the feeling versus the mechanics of it all. recently i realized that i am not as cut out for the short stuff as i had thought. i tried, oh how i tried, to come up with some engaging 2-3 minute ideas, but even after a week of work on the stuff, i found that i am just better suited for the longer stuff, the 'epic' stuff. i love being able to spend that time to get a complete theme across.

until next time,

At 8:31am on December 23, 2009, Rounder said…: thank you for the comment on "Plains".
it's nice to know there are still Tangerine Dream listeners out there.

i'm still giddy over most of your songs. i actually spent a good chunk of the day yesterday with one of your melodies in my head. "Shamanic Dream". that's the kind of song that makes my day.

i love that flute!

At 10:15pm on December 20, 2009, Rounder said…: thank you for the comment and compliment!
it's nice to meet someone with the same affinity for long pieces, too!

i don't know what it is but a longer piece just feels right. you can get more of an idea across to the audience.

i am in absolute love with your pieces. if you ever have the chance to chat a little, i'd love to find out a little about your creative process.

cheers and nice to meet you!

At 9:06am on September 16, 2009, AlephNull said…: Bliss and Sacredness on my player is posted out of admiration and respect for the artist on Atmoworks that goes by Holon. I do not want to take any credit for it...but only bring attention to it. Pixyblink and Holon are two vocal goddess engineers I like alot,and have been looking further into...for it is a dimension of electropoetics I'd like to incorporate...also...when atmoworks first started out ...I ran into the artist Brian Howe that I cooresponded with...he did some video/audio/spokenword..."electropoetics" that really gave some substance to some very vauge ideas and inclinations.I've talked to Pixyblink some....I need to write Holon.

At 8:27pm on September 13, 2009, AlephNull said…: My child, I had a visitation in my sleep last night
Something was calling to me from a blinding light
And told me not to fear it, hear it
It said, It's time to make the world a little wiser.
There are enough destroyers and criticizers.
The world needs a healer, healer.
And I awoke, my heart was pounding
'Cause it was not like me to have such dreams
But I could not fall asleep for wondering
Why the messenger had come to me
My child, I am too old and I am set in my ways
But now I realize just what the voice conveyed
You will be a healer, healer
Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice
Because the healer comes
The healer comes
Your destiny I lay before you
But then the choice was never yours nor mine
When it's time to take this burden on you
Then I will take the one you leave behind

Todd Rundgren Healer lyrics

Frater and my friend.... I spent alot of time on your page here today...started listening to the prolific collection of music you have created....I grew incredibly relaxed...had some dragon's blood incense burning and laid down..with candles...and proceeded to go into a "twilight zone" ...a magickal Hypnagogic state...on the cusp of void and form. Your music took me on a journey of deep cartharsis ...I awoke sitting up in bed crying my eyes out about issues long lost rest(or so I thought) of broken relationships and fear of death ..etc...A sort of Goeita....two runes were in my dreams with your music....carved in a cavern Thurisaz...Cathartic destruction...Thorn..Thor's thunder and lighting..Painful messages,warning of cruelity and Deciet..rude awakening to hidden truth. Also Dagaz...The Day, A message of Awakening,clarity and transformation.Transcendence of duality and the break of dawn. You are a wonderful magi/musican....... I know there are others here too in this Atmosphere.....I don't make a very good "fan" or "follower"...never have ..never will...but you have my deepest respect and admiration as an artist...Namaste....your mirror shines true...
