Greetings Patrons,

This didn't have anything to do with Mind Flayers when it started. It began as an orchestral tension track, but the longer I worked with it, I kept seeing these floating, tentacle faced creatures in my mind. 

For the ambience portion,  one of the things I did was create a sampler patch out of all the squishy, brain-like sounds I could come up with. Then I 'played' this on the keyboard along with the music. I do this occasionally and it's a fun alternative to placing clips on the timeline and allows a slightly more organic flow. Obviously this technique doesn't work for everything but it's a nice alternative and a more tactile way to design sounds. Additionally, there are some creepy tones and whispering which should add to the slightly disturbing reality that mind flayers live in.

I've included ambience-only versions as well as music-only versions here for patrons. I hope they'll both be fairly useful on their own.

Thank you all, as always, for your continuing support.

Best,

Tim

This is already one of my favorite tracks! To me the music sounds like the perfect embodiment of the Lawful Evil alignment, illithids or otherwise.

On the too bad side, my party is past Seadeeps and the Mind Flayers there. But...oh look, Far Realm approaches with tentacles sprouting from the walls in Shadowdusk Hold. The full track should make good battle music!

Also, I'm wondering if you'd consider making remixes available at your higher Tier Patreons? Nothing fancy; hopefully just changing balance etc. Or making individual tracks available for us to remix.

Great work Tim!
