I've just been cleaning up the desktop on my computer and stumbled across two recordings dating to February. This was a spontaneous live session using a pre-alpha version of a new tangible interface i'm (still) developing.
A friend operated the interface and i manipulated the output signal (afaik only FM Synthesis + Phase Dist Synthesis at that time) w/ Ableton Live + added some drones.
Unfortunately the software (again pre-alpha at this time!) was quite unstable and crashed 2 or 3 times which can be heard in the recording (of course everything is fixed by now). However I think the result is still worth listening.

Urgh.. titles are hard and only for 'real' tracks.. those are only improvisations with lots of errors... ergo no tracks, no titles

I think an ambient song is really REAL when it is captured and created in a specific moment, improvisations are one of the most natural ways of creating music in general and in this genre especially they are ways more suitable than endless sequencing, slicing, cutting, touching here and there... So I'm really offended that you don't call these magical, live and how to say... primal pieces of sound real tracks/songs etc.
Perfection in many cases kills music, impulsiveness in creation on the other hand is a gift....

Every track needs a title, improvised or not - I have over 2 hours of live improvs that I have recorded in my archives all with titles... I can see where you are coming from, but I think you really should try add a title to those two pieces, just whatever feeling or emotion they give you. It is easier to catalouge all your work.
Great stuff.
Darren.

I agree, I believe this also, you can just get lost in your own world and sound and let the music take you over - it is about capturing a moment in time and space (like taking a picture) Now you cannot go back into that picture it is a passing moment in time just like a live improvised piece of ambient, it is something in THAT MOMENT.
Personally I record both live improvised pieces and also work on more detailed pieces which are not recorded live but sequenced and structured.
