i have a couple of projects on the go at the moment. this is one of them.
it's a side project that me and my friend Glynn are working on.
One of the obvious influences here is Boards of Canada (yes i know there's a million BoC soundalikes out there), but this project's purpose isn't to rip off BoC...it's to expand our techniques a little. It's influenced but not completely facsimilising.
the first foray for Low Winter Sun is Crimson Vector, a track to which i contributed most of the percussion and a little bit of the melodic content and general feel.
as always, it's a work in progress, but it's pretty much done...just needs some little tweaks here and there i think.

Ha ha! White Winter Sun is already a track by BoC-soundalike "Pycho". :D
Not a bad track though, but it needs a bit more dirt to the sound generally and more delay/blurriness on at least one of the synth parts.

really? i did not know that :) heh!
thank you very much...i'm hoping to go round to Glynn's sometime for a session (i prefer to work with people face to face, rather than over teh Webz of Intar) so we'll see what we can add/subtract
appreciation of your listenings is tenfold dear Ceri
:)

I love that bass sound: How would one go about making such a sound?
It's a good track, and I agree with Ceri: More dirt, and especially a bit of occasional crunch on the top of the drums to make them sparkle through when suitable.

Needs a lot of work if you want to be thought of as a true pyche ripoff of boards of canada ripoff

heh
thanks, i'll take that as a compliment
as said originally, the aim of the project is to have some influence from BoC but not to be complete rip-offs
so the fact that most people are saying we need work to get more of a BoC sound is good, because as already said....we don't wanna be BoC wannabes
heh

You don't sound like them in a bad way though. The synth in the first half is well good. The drums need to be muddied up a bit and the stuff in the second half needs to be more blurry and dream like. Basically what Ceri said. It has potential though, even if it is very derivitive.

yay for derivative works :)
otherwise, it'd sound like something you've never heard before!
