Thanks for the thoughtful feedback jonetsu, the mixing will indeed be better for the next album, I learned a lot by working on the first one.

As for visualizing the audio, this isn't "useful" like what you describe with the 3D field, but you may like it: http://unique-result-840.appspot.com/webgl2/webcam_mic1

We are running a contest/challenge which started yesterday if anyone is interested: https://steemit.com/music/@telephonesound/telephone-sound-contest

We are also trying to get the YouTube show Tested interested in it. Let me know if you don't feel like following the contest link but would like more info about it.

Cheers,

Listened to a few pieces.  Quite nice.  This is an excellent use of the
Open Source synths and such.  A fair amount of good ideas,
arrangements, and sound crafting in there that can be developed and
pushed further in next releases.  The voices are good.  The lower tones
can remind a tad Carol Pope.

OTOH, the mix/mastering could be better.  The bass tones in "Crystalist"
is way too forward when compared to the other pieces.  It can be useful
to see the audio field as a 3D field in which instruments are located
right/left, up/down/ front/back.  Having just a bit more depth would
allow to move things around a bit, IMHO.  Ideally the listener should
not have to reach for the controls of the sound system.

"A gangster of love".  Japanese yakuzas seek the blessing of buddhist
priests.  The traditional mafia, the catholic priests.  Many mafias
in Russia seek orthodox blessings.  There seems to be a pattern there.

Cheers.
