Here comes AUSPEX's soundtrack part 7. Which means we have five more albums left.

Five tracks for the weeks of July 1st to July 29th, 2024. And we're still drifting somewhere in the blurry territories of handpan-driven ambient techno, with more texture than structure. Except, of course, the purely chronological evolving structure of each week's loop.

At the beginning of each week, I record a new loop with whatever I find inspiring at the moment. Usually, but not only, handpans and steel tongue drums. Then, every day of the week, I recycle this loop and add it to the ambient soundtrack of the game.

Each loop iteration becomes the music of a new level that I also create daily, built upon the previous one. All loops are set up in chronological order to compose weekly tracks, with a few additional effects and tweaks.

Think of it as a kind of abstract musical diary, with mangled lo-fi samples and drones, occasional ambient sounds, and an absurdly Sisyphean atmosphere.
