finally I sorted this out
we start the distribution of cloudcycle using torrents
(our favourite way of distributing content on the net…the cheapest…the more democratic…and the one with less carbon footprint too)

you can get the torrent files here :

cloudcycle__mp3_320.torrent (including all the cloudcycles in mp3@320)

cloudcycle__flac.torrent (including all the cloudcycles in FLAC)

there is also a torrent for the wav files…but we keep this one reserved to our subscribers for now.

we are seeding it from a seedbox at the moment..so it should be always available..

off course we need more seeders…any help is welcome.

we hope you will enjoy it

cloudcycle ends

maybe this is the end…maybe it will morph…
thanks to everyone who contributed…wIth music…with ideas…with support…with $$$…subscribing…and linking us around the cybersphere.
all the mp3packs and flacpacks are from now for FREE download for everyone…no need to subscribe…just go to the download page
the wavpacks are still reserved to those who subscribed…and we still ask for a donation for the wav24.
thanks for listening

download it here : mp3pack5.zip

feat :
mauxuam : mixer – ableton – kaospad
master margherita : bass – kaospad
lingua lustra : microsynth
robert rich : lapsteel gtr – pvc flute
jacques dudon : chandravina – harmonic flute
dymons : percussions
naomi jean – percussions – voice

not too bad….considered the conditions…

I am not too happy about it…I reckon that most of the acustic instruments played too much and all the time…usual problem with live jams…

anyway…enjoy.

for those who like shopping, you can now buy our music in exclusive from only 2 specialized shops :

cloudcycle on addictech

cloudcycle on digital tunes

Cloudcycle is a bizarre experiment conceived by Greg Hunter (Dubsahara, Subsurfing, Alien Soap Opera, who also worked on some seminal albums of electronic music, amongst others with Orb, Killing Joke, Steve Levine, Matrix movie soundtrack) and mauxuam (unpredictable manouvrer who last year released his album Viceversa and has been turning knobs and tweaking sounds for over twenty years on many diverse and obscure projects).
two experienced space navigators who lost their way home, met eachother along the digital pipeline and forgot where they were heading to…and why. Master Margherita met them along the way and while trying to help them find a direction, got himself lost too…

Cloudcycle started one mad night 3 years ago and it is still morphing into new shapes…greg and maux have been shifting and drifting…working online at huge distance of time and space (greg in uk and egypt, maux in oz)…connected by the magic of wand skype….with no timeline, no deadline and no end.
Without knowing what to do and simply bored with the old music biz paradigma, they started to release this music as an audioblog on the net uploading the tracks as soon they finished them….including alternative mixes and demos and the samples to do your own remix.

Deep and heavy beats and out of nowhere melodies, slow techno and endless ambient drones….familiar with every genre without belonging to any trend, cloudcycle is a bunch of trip-a-delic dub-minimal-glitch-world-oddness, a spicy and scented delight for the senses…disappearing before you get hold of it…dissolving without trace…fractalized in micromacro syncronicities.
Richness to resonance, truth to tonality, esoteric emotions and subtle harmonies… a spontaneous outpouring from our side to the world, a musical invitation to experience and join for the pure reason of sharing.

Cloudcycle doesn’t sound loud as fuck…it’s not in your face…we praise the dynamic range…music is the silence between the sounds….pleasure relished in the unsquashed transients…we don’t fight in the loudness war.

in the moment we become so involved in the experience, we lose track of ourself, lose track of time, lose track of our identity…we become clouds.

cloudcycle crashed
and since the php database is lost…also all the posts are lost…(apart of the media files…included the audio)./.

after 24h of php pain cloudcycle is back online (tnx 2 moreno for the help)

it was also my first wireless set
i finally got a wii (just the controller) yesterday for 68 australian dollars
and using the magic osculator i hooked it to ableton…and had lots of fun with it
(tnx to kriss for raving about this)
i even gave it to some friends between the audience to play with…and they also had lots of fun
weeekeeed stuff :-)
soon i will post a simple tutorial about using the wii and the iphone as remote controllers for ableton (or tracktor, or whatever midi).

cloudcycle.net

we couldn’t decide what is it…an album…or a band…
so..for now it’s a website…a simple audioblog….

cloudcycle.net
