A Solderbox Soundscape: Crom Does Not Answer Prayers
…and his religion confers no benefit.
Ah, Crom! Robert E. Howard was a friend and correspondent of Lovecraft’s, and even dropped the odd bit of oblique Yog Sothery into his tales of the brooding barbarian warrior king Conan as an Easter Egg for Those Who Know. But Crom was wholly his own creation. Crom is Conan’s deity. And could there be anything more perfect than a God for the Godless? Utterly indifferent to humanity, maybe… he isn’t there at all? 
Saw the @brambos @jakoB_haQ team up, instabought. Made this with one instance of Solderbox in drone mode, knob twiddling by MIDILFOS, and some Alteza reverb. No keyboards were harmed in the making of this piece, everything internally sequenced by the, er, internal sequencer.
I think I’m going to like Solderbox.

Damn…. This sounds like delirium!
I was waiting for you to drop something with this. Didn’t know it would be today!
Thank you. Amazing as always. What’s the longest mix you got? Pretty sure I could listen to an hour rec of this just fine.
Oh this is fucking brilliant work Irena!
If I didn't already purchase Solderbox based on the names @brambos and Jakob Haq, this would've been what made me purchase it. Yes I tagged Bram so he can listen to this brilliantly-crafted Dark Ambient.
I hear the lamentation of the women in this track
@Svetlovska have you thought about or do you do writing in any professional manner? You seem to have the track intros down to a science with descriptions teases and mystery all while providing interesting facts or perspective. I click to listen mostly based on what you write -- lol
and his religion confers no benefit
other than succor from the unknown of death what religion confers benefit to the living
very well crafted !!!
crafted with love or ahem lovecraft-ed
That's wonderfully dark!!
Hey everybody, thanks for the listens and the kind words. It is very much appreciated.
@magnusovi : Delirium? No, that’s my next track
@offbrands : (great handle, btw!) Yeah, I generally consider my biggest sin is letting my noises run on too long, though in fact I am sort of tempted by the challenge of a really long, mega mix sort of thing, perhaps to post on YouTube rather than SoundCloud. I deliberately make nearly all of my stuff in the same key and at the same tempo, so in theory it shouldn’t be too hard mechanically, but, ahem, ‘artistically’ it’s another thing, to kiss the razors edge of maintaining a mood without boring the listener to death… Food for thought.
@jwmmakerofmusic : thank you!
@audiblevideo: Oh, great line! I see what you did there. We have John Milius, screenwriter on Arnie’s Conan to thank for that, I believe, but he cribbed it, reportedly, from the GOAT barbarian himself, Genghis Khan, whose own version was a bit more, um, direct: “The greatest pleasure is to vanquish your enemies and chase them before you, to rob them of their wealth and see those dear to them bathed in tears, to ride their horses and clasp to your bosom their wives and daughters.”
@Syn : Thank you. Indeed I try to make all my noises a Craft of Love.
@brambos : Thank you! I mean - I literally couldn’t have made this without you. So you only have yourself to blame
This is excellent!!!!!
How in Crom’s name does anyone come up with something this amazing within hours of picking up a brand new app??
I was just thinking that!
Stunning work, Irena.
I guess it’s a good thing I stumbled on your YouTube last night and followed you 😅
That is food for thought. Thank you for explains this. I’m probably on the outside of that demo considering I’d be content with hours long mixes of all kinds of different noises but I definitely see what you mean. I watch some modular long plays of 4 hours with no problem and less variation in a lot of ways then yours 😅
Probably sacrelig but I randomly thought of some big almost ethereal / bombastic drums out of key coming In an out on a slow LFO maybe intertwined with some rhythmic almost hi hats compressed to shit doing the same 1/16th or 32 looped for a bar. Add glitch and mutation. Just to bring unexpected variety.
I barely understand what I just wrote so literally no worries if you don’t either 🤪
There’s this artist I really enjoy (Floating Points) and the things he does with a Bulchaans a drum machine while bringing them in and out and on an XY I imagine for variation blow my non-musically inclined mind. example track if curious between intro - 2:27 the variation sweepings is what I mean. Don’t let the BPM put you off I picture it at a much less 20-40 😅
Aside from the time frame, this is my thought every time there’s something new from @Svetlovska. Inspired, and inspiring.
Hey guys, thanks all for those gracious comments and listens!
Re speed and violence of execution: I just have a rule that if I buy an app, I have to use it asap in a track, ideally the day of purchase. It’s brute strength and ignorance, a matter of doing my chimp with a typewriter thing with it until the poor thing starts sounding sad enough to Dark Ambient 
I checked out Floating Points, @offbrands , I see what you mean, an interesting approach. I tend to stay away from percussion other than the pulse of the odd Doom Drum or random middle distance spanners down a well noises, courtesy of Fractal Beats a random trigger like Physicles Gravity and a lorra lorra reverb, but there is something to be said for using fast busy snare hi hat patterns a La Roni Size almost as textural layers, smeared and indistinct, something I should look into.
sounds like an impressive "synth". what exactly is happening in the last 30 sec?
@jo92346 : I stopped the AUM transport, (leaving the feed into AudioShare running, of course), faded everything down to nothing, then slowly faded the ‘trails’ up again to max into AudioShare, then sliced the end dead. My idea of what constitutes drama
These things would be cleaner but unless/until Jonatan decides to add editable automation to AUM, I’m working with what I’ve got: a cracked touch screen and fingers like a couple of pounds of Cumberland sausages. Precision instruments, every one…
Good insight! Means a lot you took the time to understand my nonsense. 😛
Interesting insights. I might expand on the idea and share it but who knows if I’ll get the courage 🤣
This was good. Sounds like West-Coast inspired synth.
This is one that benefited from volume. So good when the speakers are rattling and the desk is vibrating. Would love to sit in an empty auditorium with this playing through a huge PA.
Wow... amazing as usual... and extremely up my alley.... can't wait to jump (or well wade) into the murky potential of this instabuy. Thanks for the inspiration and looking forward to your next first day jam
also.... I hope you consider playing live (if you don't already)... I think it would be a real treat for the audience
