Biography
Visions of Solitude is my {Piro24} dark ambient project. He started this project after listening to various artists of this genre, and decided it was exactly the kind of music that he wanted to, and could create. It is also a genre without any real limits, which allows for experimentation and individualism. The themes of this (although this is pretty much instrumental) revolve around solitude, and the music is meant to be uneasy and interesting, the second it stops being interesting, I typically end the song. For technical stuff, please continue down.

Hardware Used -
Old Keyboard (no idea about brand…)
Sansa E260R microphone (for recording external synths/sounds/keyboards)
Most of my sound samples (background synth drones/sound effects/sound samples) have come from www.freesound.org . However, I never use the exact files I download, if I download a drone/atmospheric synthesizer loop, it generally undergoes heavy editing, and sometimes even modified with several other sound files. Sound Samples are also usually edited to fit my needs, but not usually as heavily as the drone effects. There are some samples/effects that I simply went and recorded myself.
