I've still just been listening to stuff while out walking, letting my ears find sounds I like. I was out strolling on a bridge that goes over Allen Road and the subway tracks and your bass feedback track was rumbling in my ears right as a train passed underneath me, and I involuntarily stepped back as the sounds meshed so perfectly with the slither of the train below me.
Shikawkee, one of your longer, buzzier tracks turned out to sound really sympatico with the cicadas when I was strolling another time.
That's what I'm going for, communicating with cicadas (or aliens; I'm not sure).
I'm pretty sure cicadas are aliens. Source:
Also, I'm glad I could give you that moment of hesitation. I was definitely going for slithery subway car rumblings
I managed to download the tracks and listen to a few. I still have no put anything together through. I ended up being way more busy on my vacation than I expected, but I really need to get on this!
I've also just been gathering like a magpie, finding little bits in some tracks, stacking up big chunks of other things. Hopefully this week should have time to mix/mangle/mutate.
Happy to see some of you guys are going on and are almost ready with the tracks.
I am super late on everything. Barely got time to pick up the guitar in the last weeks and my PC has decided that needs a fan change or it blacks out after 2 minutes I turn it on. I should repair it by the end of the week and proceed to work on the track in the following days..
Still thinking about cicadas, so I went and sat under a tree today and recorded some to mix with some synth-drift from last night:

I got sidetracked into noodling instead of fiddling with Okta tracks, but it's not all time wasted, seeing as I intend to send some of y'all's sounds through these wires:

Nice ironing board setup!
Started the project last night, finally getting some of my shit together
Song almost ready, just did some processing of a couple submissions through the effect board to add some movement, should be ready by the end of the week. I don't remember what the deadline is, gonna take a look at previous pages.
Finally finally going to sit down and patch for a while tonight to come up with something. probably won't get it recorded but aim to get a patch and general sketch of it at least.
So I took a sick day today and it's apparently what I needed to finally get a track going!
I've put something together with sounds from ChamberPain, coldbrightsunlight, ognoy, and ProCarstenNation so far. Still listening to others though so it might change a bit
Edit: just added some sounds from Dowi and now I'm actually really happy with the track. I'm going to leave it for awhile and see if there's anything I want to tweak later. If not, I might actually be ready to submit something
