Here comes part 9 of the AUSPEX soundtrack.

The game is available here: https://lectronice.itch.io/auspex

This stands for five weeks, from September 2nd to September 30th. It's a bit special because the last track features a Plinky synth loop instead of the usual hanpan. Spoiler: next month's album doesn't include a single handpan sound.

I suppose it's a logical progression, as my workflow has been slowly leaning towards a more electronic approach over the last few months, for no particular reason I can think of.

//////////

At the beginning of each week, I record a new loop with whatever I find inspiring at the moment. Usually, but not only, handpans and steel tongue drums. Then, every day of the week, I recycle this loop and add it to the ambient soundtrack of the game.

Each loop iteration becomes the music of a new level that I also create daily, built upon the previous one. All loops are set up in chronological order to compose weekly tracks, with a few additional effects and tweaks.

Think of it as a kind of abstract musical diary, with mangled lo-fi samples and drones, occasional ambient sounds, and an absurdly Sisyphean atmosphere.

Maker of sounds, games, pictures, and various other digital experiments.
