Ambient Esoterica
Original Microtonal and Ambient music.
Composition techniques: generative, data sonification, aleatoric, microtonal, mathematical, stochastic, indeterminant, randomization, algorithmic, atonal, serial, experimental, polymicrotonal, polyrhythmic. . .
Inspiration comes from correspondence systems, mathematics, alchemy, the occult, astronomy, data sets, frequency theory, sonic geometry, synchronicities, and other oddities and curiosities.
Ambient Esoterica does not use AI to create/produce art, music, or video.

Spring Equinox is here for the Northern Hemers!
What better excuse to create a piece of dense atonal music based upon today's Astrological Chart. š¤
Most of the classical planets are currently in Aries and Pisces with Jupiter being the lone weirdo vibing out elsewhere.
The music strictly follows the color schemes and note assignments for the Planets and the Zodiac as shared by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and Paul Foster Case (B.O.T.A.).
Even if all that is a just a wall of text littered with psycho babble and mumbo jumbo. . . it still sounds pretty cool if you like downtempo spacey dark stuff š§š

Ambient Esoterica
To explain the uncharacteristic delay in posting snippets of my ambient sketches...
I was busy building a polymicrotonal synth for Reaktor and prepping a walk-thru/tutorial -- then Native Instruments went into insolvency, ugh.
While experimenting with the synth, I created a two-song single that I released today directly to streaming services (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, etc.): Subterranean Obscurities & Terrestrials.
Yes, there is additional Ambient Esoterica content on Spotify for your playlists!!!
There's a weird issue when you link your Artist Profile on YouTube with your actual channel -- YouTube does not let anybody know new content was uploaded/released... or my previous EP 'Amorphics' last year LOL.
For now, it's back to work on my sketch pad of endless ideas and a more consistent upload schedule š

Have that fascination with with math and patterns? Today is a coprime date 9:13.
There is also a tuning where the Cents per Semitone and the EDO (Equal Divisions of the Octave) are the same number: ā1200-EDO
This is an experiment with what that tuning could sound like (fuzz-pedals + synth pads).

Ambient Esoterica
After a few years creating esoteric ambient music/video content for YouTube, and having more fun than ever expected presenting these strange concepts and ideas into music. . .
The debut Ambient Esoterica album, 'Amorphics' is live and available on streaming platforms.
Five pieces at 10:10 each in length.
I explored an array of generative music techniques to produce this, including evolving randomization, aleatoric algorithms, modulations, cycles, stochastic methods, sonification, oscillations, and more.
All original atmospheric compositions for you to enjoy at your leisure.
Thank you,
Shawn
