When i press the STOP button, this album still plays. My dad died very sad. I wish he would have known this.

my dad died sad sad , and it wasnt until the next day that he got up, took his medicine and went back out to work. Thats when he came to visit me. We had been talking about how he would miss his little boy that much. “Dad, you know I love you. You always told me that you would come visit, so I knew youd come. But, how did you find out Im alive? I mean, did I send you am Eluvian record

Wonderful album. Sadly my dog died shortly after listening to it but that was just before my cat jumped to his death. I am feeling so much right now just with everything going on in the world but also a spark of creativity that had been lingering before all that happen. So I guess there is that.
Also I am expecting major sympathy likes for this comment since I know thats what you ppl nut over❤ Wishing all of you Love and Light.

For anybody wondering why this album appears longer here than spotify, the concept of the album is that it is made up of many little musical cells that are meant to be played in any order, preferably set to shuffle mode. This makes the album potentially infinite.

you should have written a “my dad died” comment for this music

what is up with this comments section?

c.f. the back half of discreet music (basically this but rendered out, i think), that one eno installment that was also basically this but rendered out, gescom - minidisc apparently, pistachio island because we can never forget about her, maybe others, likely many others.
which isn’t to say that i don’t like it, because making something that retains potential perfect coherence with everything else is one hell of a thing to make and debug. but also coherence gets dull after a while and i start to want something else to mix up my observatory sessions uwu.
and i guess speaking of the observatory, this mixes with itself perfectly fine, but since each track is only 32 seconds long, how well would it mix with any outside of its own system? i don’t think they’d work well in a playlist, since they’d be so infrequent that any would feel like a tone ident… though maybe when two or three line up then it’d end up being magical, if for a moment.
