yrie - this is very nice, reminds me of boards of canada with the flutes and brass sounds. it is minimal without becoming boring or repetitive and sort of seems like some of the music i've been making lately (yours is better of course!). why is it called "sitari 2" in the mp3 but "yfie" for the download?
i'll get the others tomorrow.

ah.... its title is yfie but i forgot to change the id on it... it started as a sitar tune, and i named the work in progress "sitari" and then i did the brass version, and just called it #2... forgot all about that... the other 2 would have differant names too :S

i could swear ive heard the yfie harmony somewhere before.. i dig the quality of the brass
snow downs lovely. goes hand in hand with all the old boards ive been listening to lately. i dig how youll just drop the percussion like that and swing into an extended harmonic finish
now the pterodroma track.. i think the rhythms great, if the samples used were a bit louder / more compressed it would really knock me around :) harmonies are great. the backup harmonies in particular really make it. noice!

thanks rokken... yeah... yfie + snow down are demos... i released them for upload because i know i'll never finish them unfortunatly... but they have a nice quality as they are, so i thought i'd share... as for the pterodroma track, its still a demo too... but im trying to make something really cool out of it... korban did the beats, which are awesome, i've done about 30 differant harmonic versions... i cant seem to settle on this one... :)
thanks for listening

Snow Down - Similar to Yfie in how it is so simple and beautiful, I think this one sounds even more like BOC (very much like "In a beautiful place...").
Sysamtix - Very much reminds me of Gescom. Great rhythms and nice harmonies. I think it might be a little better if the drum part came back in a little earlier at around 2:20 rather than 2:40. This one is my favorite of the three. Very nice work!

Nice Artwork BTW!!!
Anyways i am currently listening to snowdown. Interesting that you picked that name because the ambient melody in the back reminds me of yagya. Not like 100% but like 63%. Refer to the album "patterns of a snowflake".
Is has a wintertime feel to it. I don't know why it does but that is my answer. Seriously, anyone who hasn't listened to this should and check this out. It is crazy. All i can think of is snow.
Moving Along. I like the crunchiness that you have for the beat. It just fits. Although this song should be alot longer. Maybe because i have an altered state of mind.... but maybe 7 minutes would be better?
Where is this yfie song? It isn't on the site.

Sysamtix - Ahhh the tell tale start of a large angry mammel scrunching out a Queenish bass line.
Catchy, moves along nicely. Good choice to drop out the white noise around 1:35, simplifies, shows off some other parts. Energy drops a lot there, gets a little open as the ambient/melody comes in then doesn't add anything new which was a little dissapointing.... but it's a demo, good start for something neat.
I want more happening with the melody, it seems to come in as a totally different part than the rest of the song. I don't know how to describe it either, the mastering isn't bad, it just sounds detached, more layered than composed and integrated? That's not bad at all, but it means you can do some interesting things... bass notes on the hits of the melody, so it sounds more like they're following one another, so the melody and the background become integrated, and back out again. I don't know if that makes sense... maybe I can find an example someplace. Also gave me some interesting ideas for something I think I'll pursue...
Will listen to the other two later, still reeling from Squarepusher last night... bliss man, total aural bliss
Cheers!
