Dreamsteep

This song was probably influenced by my playing too much Diablo near the turn of the millenium. Diablo was an addicting game where the task was to slaughter lots and lots of demonic appearing monsters. It had a haunting soundtrack that enhanced the game very much. I slayed many a pixel beast in those digital underworlds, but after a long gaming session I kept seeing little animated monsters in my head when I closed my eyes. I think some of those little pixel demons are still crawling around in my mind, but they hide well enough that I don’t see them most of the time…

This isn’t really a song, but more of a fun effect using an autopan. If you listen to this with headphones over and over with your eyes closed and the playback set to “looped” you might feel as though you’ve touched your toes in the astral plane. Well, it works for me.

If this were to be formally classified it might be considered “cheesy jazz.” Then again there are parts of it (a note or two) that kind of stick.
