New song! It’s called Blackfoot, after the Blackfoot Drum sound that opens the song and continues for a good part of it. The images are once again of space things, for no reason other than the general spacey quality of the music.

New song! It’s called Goblin Pong, because one of the sound patches is called “Goblins”, and another section reminds me of a game of Pong being played in the background, and in the past. The images are of space things, for no reason other than the general spacey quality of the music.

My working title for this new song, Don’t Fear the Reverb was just a little play on words that I thought was original, but it turns out it’s already a thing, so I demoted it to subtitle.
