I also redesigned my site's look:

anything called event horizon demands listening

Suffers from overlap, imo, as all of the elements are drones, they end up obscuring each other. Could be your intended or generative goal, of course, but I would've liked some shorter sounds to add interest. My 2 cents from across the West Hills in Beaverton.

No, you're absolutely right. I was thinking the same thing for some of my tracks, and I've been trying to get away from a purely drone/noise style lately. My latest track, "galactic halo", is a bit more beat-oriented, using Ableton's sweet Beat Repeat feature. It definitely is partially intentional. I'm a big fan of drone music, stuff I can play in the background while I read the web, stuff that doesn't demand too much of my attention. But you're right that I should think about adding interest to the tracks as well by breaking things up, throwing in some non-drone elements once in awhile.

Cool to see someone else from the Portland area!
