This pair of tracks creats such a specific atmosphere and really effectively tell a story. The almost circus-like melody in the first track make sense for :)'s jester-like appearance and outwardly friendly face. I love the use of all the real sounds and samples that bring life to the second track.
I don't think I've ever heard such good use of Locrian. You're really taking advantage of the unsettled nature of its lack of a perfect 5, rather than avoiding it or not knowing what to do with it.
Really cool!
