So, it's done. It was a F*CKING bitch. A BITCH. I think it sounds F*CKING killer.
Look out Benn Jordan, Squarepusher, and all you IDM bastards. acid_rain is F*CKING coming to town.


This one is called "Black Box".

This is the third track in the Recalling Life album, and follows after "First Glimpse".
For an idea of how I got the name check out these two links:

12 hours on this track today.
Used the following software:
FL Studio 9
Audacity
Kontakt 2 - Heavyocity

Hope you like it. Let me know what you think!

If the intended purpose of these songs you are making is to help people relax, it's working.
At 2min into the track I was expecting it to start hitting hard, but I like the relaxing effect better at this point in time.

Are you going to make some booty shaking tracks?

I've been listening to a huge collection of Paul Hardcastle stuff recently....and I've been digging it, because it's relaxing.

This is my favorite track so far acid

Thanks. It's my complete purpose to have a "chill-out" seal of approval on this album. All the songs I listen to can be extremely hard beat driven, yet somehow I still manage to find myself drifting in another world while listening.

That's exactly what this song's about, which is why it's named Black Box. It should make you feel a bit disconnected with the world around you and give the feeling of traveling through computer wires, etc.

Glad you like it! Thanks!

I'll be honest, I didn't expect to enjoy this.

But I did. Respect. ♥

I really like it man you should put some of this shit on youtube or vimeo to get it out there.

It's an awesome track. For sure gave me that disconnected to the world type feeling.

How many more tracks are you planning on making?

Probably 3 more, for a total of 6. I'm hopefully going to be selling this album. I'm not going to sell it for much, but I think $4 dollars is good enough.

It reminds me of the cool music from the original Unreal game. Very nice :)

IT REMINDS ME OF ONE OF THE SCENES FROM LIFE AQUATIC, also this is most excellent
im going to find that scene and put it in here

eidt: when the drum comes in in :30 of that song it reminds me of this

so yeah......just gonna stop listing to any other music i have... opt for this.

it was pretty good

Thanks guys for all the great comments! I'm still VERY, VERY new to FL Studio and producing Electronica, and your comments keep me interested in this. I'd love to do this more as a hobby when I can't take my telescope out at night, so I'm hoping I'll make a tiny-tad bit of money off the completed album to help buy packs and plugins/vst's to keep the music creative.

I'll be making a Facebook page for First Sun today to help capture a few fans. I've also opened up on MySpace and PureVolume.com as well. If you have any accounts on those websites, please make sure to send your love my way, it'd be greatly appreciated so more people can find me. Just search for First Sun. The myspace page will be changed by tomorrow or so from firstsunmusic to firstsun.

I'm pretty familiar with FL studio, its what I was using back when I first started mixing and what not. It's an awesome program for sure. I should've left you a more complete comment before but alas I was at work and had to make it quick. Let me know when you've got another track done bro!
