Me In a Crowd. ODH original

[ODH]

I don't always function very well socially in crowds. I inadvertently made a piece of music that illustrates how the inside of my head is in those situations.

Three ukulele tracks principally (two reversed),drums from DM1  and GarageBand, Melotron flute. The crowd noise uses a sample download from a freesound.org contributor oliverbrotzman.

I guess it's kind of contemporary psychadelic, if I have to put a label on it.

Oh and if you reverse the whole track you get a slightly unsettling version of a familiar tune.

Very cool sound.
This is an example of a beautiful and creative background to play electric guitar with, as a background.
Love it.

I don't like crowds either - it's definitely one of the autism anxieties. I find this very calming and uplifting though. The backwards stuff fits in seamlessly and musically - just a lovely texture. The whole thing lilts along in a lovely way. Excellent work!

Very clever. This is really morning coffee music. Well done sir

[Redler]

This is very meditative piece of music...

Beautiful!

Yes I can relate to the crowds thing. Lots of people talking together can throw me too. You've done a great musical interpretation of your feelings. Strange and quirky, kind of unsettling, but equally lovely too.

Meditative and quirky. The kind of track that looks back on you. The ukuleles reminded me of chinese kotos. Somehow you're able to bring peace and quiet into the imaginery crowds. Perhaps you in fact love being surrounded by people while getting drowned in your own head music?

A song that has a chinese feel and made me think of burrowing turtles.

made me think of burrowing turtles.

I'm glad someone picked up on that...

[Ray Brookes]

Lovely cool reflective track at once soothing then unsettling. Love the sound of those ukes.

A wonderfully creative piece of work. I'm not familiar with Burrowing turtles but it did
remind me the Jim Carey movie, "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind".
