For this week, rather than the counterpoint-over-chords approach I've been doing lately, I wanted to have three guitars interacting in a sparser way. The structure's pretty intuitive, with a lot of rests in there.

This one uses home-built Res-O-Glas direct to the converter, some larger-space, more-present convolution reverb, and a bit of eq/compression on the stereo mix,

The title comes from NGC 482, a spiral galaxy in the Phoenix constellation.

Nothing really major here, enjoyed layering up a nice texture, basically. Needs more work as there are issues with it but yeah it's alright.

I did not have much time this week so went for a quick track. This is inspired by old swing and also by the Tim Burton's Nightmare before Christmas movie. I am happy about the way the horns sound. Using a question/answer approach with some panning makes it more alive and natural.

The structure of the track is a bit too basic. The end itself is interesting, maybe I should use that for a future track. It's... different from the rest.

This track is kinda like.. throwing paint at a wall. But, the way it came out very much pleases me.. and tbh, that's probably the detriment of everyone else.. but I like stuff that is kind of intense and chaotic.. filled with emotional dread, but also kind of high energy.

Lofi-ish ambient house (techno?) jam. Laidback and groovy. Comments always welcome.
