Puritan Opiate - Some Rough Beast Slouches Toward Us All (FULL ALBUM)
Full album of ambient synth music. A nocturnal, minimalist album of notes and textures.
Ambient 0.1 in E - 0:00
Ambient 0.2 in B - 9:19
Ambient 0.3 in D - 15:06
Ambient 0.4 in C# - 23:37
Ambient 0.5 in F - 35:22
Ambient 0.6 in A - 42:11
Ambient 0.7 in D# - 52:00
Equipment: one Casio full-size electric piano, one Vox StompLab sound processor, one Scarlet Solo preamp, and the free version of Audacity multitracking software. Nothing else.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
-W.B. Yeats
Originally released May 7, 2023

Just subscribed and love it. I've Ctrl-C/V'd your equipment list statement to my notebook for inspiration. It was the title that caught my eye. Great stuff. Cheers.
Ruinous columns collapse into an endless sea under a maelstrom of sparkling clouds. Beautiful.

Thank you! It was recorded in March 2023. If you'd like to see how my ambient work has developed, here's my more recent album as well: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yn6KtbuQnM7QlbQ.htmlsi=C_dkUhForTx8SxdU
Great background music, I found it very relaxing. All I keep thinking while listening, is that this would be good music to go with a survival horror game.
A similar timbre and cadence to Varg, though it does it's own thing too. Patient, but not so repetitive. Very nice work.

Varg as in Burzum? That's quite interesting. I've only ever heard Filosofem and Aske, never his ambient synth work.

I really appreciate it. Thanks for listening.
I’ll be honest, this sounds like BoC from the nineties, ie, Boc Maxima, Acid Memories or even Hell Interface… I love it! Great job!

By BoC do you mean Boards of Canada? 'Cause that's a hell of a compliment!

The ceremony of innocence is drowned...

I wonder if that falcon ever came back. Doesn't seem like it.
Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert A shape with lion body and the head of a man, A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun, Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds. The darkness drops again; but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

What an amazing poem. I was thinking about it quite a bit while I recorded this.
