Dear friends,

In 2011 I announced project "droning" <https://louigiverona.com/?page=projects&s=music&t=droning>, a project dedicated to longform ambient music. You folks were the first people to listen to it, since the majority of it was written using Linux Audio tools and shared on this very mailing list.

Today I have reached a milestone of 300 tracks, a nice round number. This is also 10 years later! So seems like the right moment to finish the project.

I will, of course, continue producing ambient music, but simply in the more usual form of albums on my Bandcamp <https://louigi.bandcamp.com/>. And project "droning" can be a nice completed collection of longform ambient tunes, almost utilitarian in nature.

The story I tell about project "droning" is that some of the authors of the software I used to make it with were listening to the tunes while working on that same software 😂

While I used most major Linux Audio apps for the project, including Hydrogen and Ardour, the bulk of work was done with Rakarrack, Kluppe, Qtractor, Din and several other soft synths.

Recent tunes were made with FL Studio, which is why I no longer promoted them on this mailing list. The last tune made completely with Linux Audio was droning280, "Twilight Connection".

Huge thanks for being my audience for the past 10 years, your support meant a lot to me, and each time I finished a tune, I would rush to post it here, knowing that some of you might enjoy it.

Cheers!

Congratulations on making such a solid body of work. It is interesting to hear the progression in production quality and composition over the years but it does seem timely to call the project complete and move on to different goals. I will never listen to all 300 of them however.

I was slightly disappointed you have moved away from using Linux but your latest, Mystic Waters, is probably your best release yet (as I mentioned in a message when I purchased it from Bandcamp) so FL Studio seems to be the right tool for the job.

Thanks for your contributions; I'm sure you have inspired others to try new things!

Cheers, Roger
