Description It is created between the cracks. it is amplified. if you listen, you feel the space between time. it is created in a life without time. caught in a shadow of light. nothing can exist here. but this does. it is beautiful. it is ephemeral. it is gone.
Hardware quicksilver. stopped time.
Software: innumerable subroutines. software-generated-music.

Automatic Download
You realize that I just hit the download button when you post a new work? It's true.

I do feel the ephemeral nature of this song. It reminds me of the exhibition space where I transmitted one of my own soundtracks over a field of sculptural debris. This composition would fit perfectly in that space. I'm going to email you a link to the images so you know what I'm talking about.

I'm crazy about this piece.

Bob

compliment surprise
it is such a great compliment to receive a download. however, to receive a download without question or listen... it is a humble surprise. thank you so much for such action. i anxiously look for a message with your artwork. it must be quite satisfying to create art display with music. thank you for such support and friendship. hakucho 0x0

dag bend bamboo. sigh. i am glad you are back. beautiful. don't know what else to say. ja, i would recognize this as an ic42 piece amongst thousands of other ambient pieces. terrific stuff, mean that from the bottom of my empty heart.

ic42 said 245 days ago
bamboo turtle
the bamboo bends far today, dear turtle. my friend, you are made of bamboo too. you are so strong. you and bob are constant friends. it creates strength here too. it is now a great forest of bamboo. it can fight against the constant tsunami here. it is a hope that this music and this friend can give you some strength. it is a dark place to be alone. we are not alone. i come here and remember that it is true. thank you. 0x0

Diviner said 245 days ago
Very nice
Brilliant sounds, love the space you give this. A lovely searching soundscape of delight. Nice one ic42 its a beautiful tune.

ic42 said 245 days ago
a poet too
"a lovely searching soundscape of delight". it is a phrase of beauty. it is not deserved. but it is humbly accepted. it is a longer music. thank you for listening. 0x0

michael2 said 245 days ago
nice
really very beautiful. love the way that you put this together. sounds great with my eyes closed.

ic42 said 245 days ago
blind music
it was created with eyes closed. perhaps it is to be heard in the dark. it is a great compliment to have you listen. you are very talented. thank you. 0x0

reciprocation of compliment
it is your music that is a delight. a comment is now on your ean bardsley song. it is a great accomplishment. my world is small. it is a surprise that you find it. and so nice for the compliments on the music. thank you for the time to listen and write these words. they make the world better. 0x0

Roxylee said 245 days ago
So... Between...
This is worlds and worlds of timeless floating in undiscovered places... OK, I need to know what the beings are speaking when they utter those little syllables. I hope they are friendly creatures. Seriously, this is amazing, and I wish I knew how you did it. I suspect I wouldn't understand if you tried explaining it, though..Hmm... 1415... ADAE.. anno dominioi anno eterno? OK, I have no idea. but it's fun to guess. :-)

ic42 said 245 days ago
it is between worlds
it is a good discovery. this world lives between time. the beings who live there cannot be seen by us. we rush by too fast. we must stop and listen. in the silent dark cracks between night and day. they are there. they do not see us. we rush by too fast. this is only a dream that created the music. thank you for stopping to listen. 0x0

Wall of air
with jabs of synths in a sea of foam very cool downloaded Thanks

ic42 said 245 days ago
bubbles in air
it is a pretty image. perhaps colors flowing on soap bubbles. they float beyond reach. it is your artist eye. it creates worlds of color from the grey canvas. it is your talent. thank you for adding color here. 0x0

tokai said 243 days ago
The universe is just
a symphony. Very nice description to a wonderful piece of music.

ic42 said 243 days ago
it is true
and there are infinite symphonies. it is time to discover another universe. it is time to discover your music. thank you. 0x0

wow - this is just stunning! I always love how, when you plug one of your songs in chat, you always say something extremely intriguing and mysterious before giving the link. It always makes me want to go hear! You're so good in this genre. So, you created it with closed eyes, or you also MADE it with closed eyes?? Did you just close your eyes and this all came to you? Amazing! Total total download!

ic42 said 241 days ago
it is electric
it is difficult to communicate. sometimes music carries a message instead of words. there are so many things to say. they are hidden in the brain. it cannot come out as a word. it must be said as music. this music is created automatically with computer software. it is invented by machine, so "eyes are closed". however, in the beginning, it does not communicate well. then i change many things in it. the message is hidden, but with changes, it is heard. it is understandable. if you understand the music now, then i have done a good thing. the message is communicated. thank you for communicating in return. it gives hope to communicate more with music. 0x0

Confounded said 242 days ago
Dreaming
To me it was a great patiently looped music, as you said, in a life without time. It's perfect for dreaming time, relaxation time, to go through your dreams with it. I like this type of music.

ic42 said 241 days ago
it is escape time
many times the world is a terrible place. it is good to escape to a new safe place. there is no place here. but there is a place to go inside music. a place where time stops. i think you have found this place too. it is a beautiful dream place. your music is this place too. thank you for sharing, listening, writing thoughts. it is a better place now. 0x0

Confounded said 242 days ago
P.S.
...and thanks for sharing it.

wow - i got lost in my head...
amazing - now i gotta go and get fixed - thank you for the experience x

ic42 said 240 days ago
lost
it is a great compliment to be lost in music. it is hoped that you enjoyed the journey and return safely. however, if you ever wish to get lost again, the music is here. thank you for a listen. 0x0

GnosticVelvet said 238 days ago
WoW !
This is AWSOME !!!!!!!!! Like a perfect Audio-sonic painting , enough space , tone color and balance -
You can listen in an active or passive manner and
STILL GET ALOT OUT OF IT! Love IT !

ic42 said 237 days ago
it is much work
it takes time to create music that sounds simple and smooth. extra time is spent adding nuance. if you detect both, you have listened very carefully. it makes this worthwhile to spend so much time on this music. thank you for taking time to listen and respond. it adds warmth to this world. 0x0

the greatest gift
it is a great gift to share music. thank you for sharing your music and dreams. it is heartwarming to know that you like this music as well. 0x0

It is created in a life without time, and it succeeds in taking me to that space between. When I was submerged in these sounds there was no time. Beautiful. Exactly what I needed after a long day. Thank you. You have cradled me safely as my mind floated away for a moment.

ic42 said 188 days ago
the world is a harsh mistress
it is necessary to escape at times. the world is abrasive. people cause pain. music insulates. it is a safe place. it is a comfort to know you can find this place too. your music is a comfort as well. thank you for taking time to escape. 0x0

floating...
As I listen to this, I gaze at bright and distant stars.
I feel like I'm floating in space.
I here the echo and sense the distance.
The pulsing synth is warm and comforting.
It wraps around me and engulfs me, like a cyborg mother and child.
A timeless moment, a place without time.
Would this be what it sounds like inside the Matrix?

ic42 said 172 days ago

it is a success, if it takes you to a timeless place. it is a hope to use music to create worlds in the mind. thank you for travelling. 0x0

VicDiesel said 129 days ago
timeless
This has a stillness that is mesmerizing. Static, yet moving. Quiet, yet dynamic. Great stuff.



ic42 said 128 days ago
such thoughts
it is a delightful comment from a master musician. thank you for listening to the careful emptiness. your music is always a thought provoking journey also. it is time to fill the emptiness with your music. 0x0

Henke said 124 days ago
Like good OLD TD
But made by software you say? That IS pretty amazing. You must be a very good programmer, as well as musician. I like the poetic song description as well!

Thank you for such meditative music to enlighten my iTunes playlist(s)!

/Henke

P.S. TD = Tangerine Dream, but I think your mix and overall "sound" is even better, perhaps because equipment has improved since the 70's ;-)

ic42 said 123 days ago
td?
it is an extreme compliment to have a comparison to tangerine dream. it is appreciated, however it is difficult to accept. thank you for such a generous thought. there is much repetition of small group of notes and slow morph of sound timbre in td music. it is attractive to me. i enjoy td influence. of course, it must "rub off" with my music. the recording equipment is much less expensive now. it can achieve high quality sound. it is hoped to achieve high quality music as well. programming experiments in music is a rewarding hobby. many experiments are wrong and ugly. then there becomes a jewel. thank you for sharing the sparkle of this jewel. 0x0

Beyond what you do with the computer
you have impressed me, dear one, as a being who has wisdom and compassion. I would like to think of you as a patient teacher and your music as thoughtful lessons. I sense no turmoil but acceptance and celebration of what is. Whether or not it is your intent, know that your music and your words always uplift my spirit. And so, I am indebted to you. Many Thanks.

ic42 said 123 days ago
uplift a pretty spirit
there has been much turmoil. too much. it is past. now there is peace. there is small enjoyment each day. today there is great enjoyment. a friend is visiting my music and is uplifted. it raises my spirits to the clouds. however, you have no music yet. i cannot reciprocate. i offer pure friendship in return. it is hoped to be acceptable. thank you. 0x0
