I'm impressed by the amount of "tricks" you were able to construct out of these sounds. Your sound design is as good as ever and you're probably the best at it on this board.
The problem is- and it's the same problem with all of Richard Devine's work and even tracks like ae's Fol4- I really have to be in the right mood to want to listen to semi rhythmic sound collages. You have to devote all your mental resources to picturing the alien soundscape. Every sound is assigned an immediate mental visual and you watch them mutate in your head. Sometimes it hits the spot just right, other times the concentration falters and you're just listening to a bunch of spasming white noise in the background.
It's different than raw ambience, which functions essentially as a "mood" in the background. No concentration is needed whatsoever to absorb the mood.
It's different than a sweet locked-in groove that just takes over you, fires off all parts of your brain, makes you want to get up and start break dancing in the middle of your room.
So yeah, I think you're in bold territory with your latest stuff-- you're quite good at it, but even from the first 30 seconds it might prove to be too much of a task to listen to for most people to "get into". But even that doesn't matter for shit, as long as you're enjoying what you're making.

thanks a lot dude!
i really enjoy making this stuff yeah.. im making an album and im trying to make it more interesting.. more varying sounds.. but we'll see..
i think maybe if the sounds are good enough, people will attach to them even if they are "too" abstract in cases..
