I listened a couple of times--sounds awesome, and flows really well. Nicely done all.

Totally get it, during the mixing process sometimes I got to a point where I didn't even know what were my samples and what not.

Re: Okta 2: Back to the Skies
Would anyone object to me including my Okta 2 track on one of my albums at some point ?
I'd add a link to the Okta 2 page and try to remember who I got the raw materials from to credit if someone wants crediting.
I only ask because it's still sitting in my completed tunes folder and every now and again I ponder adding it somewhere, maybe as a bonus track.

Re: Okta 2: Back to the Skies
Important update! I did the maths and sent a donation to the ILF hosting fund. From our album sales, we raised USD$47.43. Not too shabby! (And hopefully there will be more to follow!)

Re: Okta 2: Back to the Skies
As a late addendum/slight necrobump, back when I was making my Okta track, there were lotsa sounds in the pool I liked but didn't end up using. A few of those I smashed together into some pleasing drone zones, creating new "Heraclitus Akimbo" mixes of tracks from JM Charcot and Mushrooms in Shampoo that I set aside in a special folder of noteworthy drones.
Add in a piece from one of Paul's albums and there's now a little ILF corner in my latest drone mix, over at mixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/Mechanical_Forest_Sound/drone-brunch-15/
Also tracks from Charlemagne Palestine, Experimental Audio Research, some peeps from my musical neighbourhood and (of course!) a music cue from an 80's BBC cop show. In case you dig any of that sort of thing.
