Took me a while to realise it's Saint-Saens' *Swan* from The Carnival of Animals at the end! Congratulations on this piece. It made me realise how signalwave is as much about the music it sampled as it is the kind of sound treatment that transforms the sound. How a different timbral quality can alter our perception of the same piece of music, just as the degree the music is 'detuned' can also produce a different feeling.

Glad you enjoyed it so much. I didn't even know what song that was because I got all the samples from Chinese test cards. That is definitely part of my philosophy for making this stuff. I know the sample plays a big role but the effects drive it home IMO the best signalwave needs a great concept and the production has to take the samples that sort of match what your concept is and just make it match to a tea.

@@ct57 You know, this album and also 核雪 would be AMAZING on cassette! I just acquired a cassette machine and would absolutely want your works in my collection!

beautiful album, blissfully loafing through boundless fog

[@ct57]

Thank you!!! I'm happy to hear you think it's beautiful. This album was definitely just my interpretation of the image that's the cover art. The album art came first and I just decided to base all the sounds and track names off it.

@@ct57 mission accomplished, I’d say!

that horn melody in the beginning gets me every time, feels like pyrrhic victory. then the melody scatters to static. did i really learn anything? idk. after a while, i return to daily life, just like last time.

Isn't that the Skater's Waltz?

I like that album. I guess you could say it’s kind of similar to signalwave music.
