PhonoBrainer 1,819 Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) Thanks y'all! Cleaned up the mix a little, and made a video - any comments are most welcome! If you can take your Youtube resolution up to 1440p, maybe let me know how crisp it looks? Experimenting . . . Would love any mix comments or anything else - thanks! cheers, -Tom Edited May 10, 2021 by emeraldsoul 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Sprouse 795 Posted April 11, 2021 what is the background picture? At my age, slow ambient pieces have enormous appeal. I believe you have done a great recording here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhonoBrainer 1,819 Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) Thanks David, and yes I feel your age, and the occasion to calm oneself in this world of irritating uncertainties should not be passed by. The picture was kipped from the internet, it looks like an artist put some Norway fjords into a Photoshop fisheye lens thing. just a guess. Many thanks for listening . . .

noynekker 377 Posted April 11, 2021 Yikes, I can't feel my toes after this. Very peaceful and effective escape from all that's happening in life these days . . . I will surely play this on on my Monday AM commute. Especially like the outro with the water and birds. All through a great touch on the keyboards . . . thanks so much for the interlude. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ruralrocker2010 21 Posted April 12, 2021 One thing I forgot about this forum was how inspiring other peoples work can be. The first note of this piece inspired me to want to jump on to my machine! Now that I've finished it I have to say it's a GREAT piece. Thank you for sharing. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lynn Wilson 642 Posted April 12, 2021 This is a relaxing and meditative work of art that is needed in these times. I've been in many waiting rooms that could use a piece of music like this to calm anxiety while waiting for an appointment for whatever. Fabulous! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hidden Symmetry 1,447 Posted April 14, 2021 Excellent Tom, I agree with the others regarding the feel & soundscape. Very nice flow & vibe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canopus 527 Posted April 14, 2021 Soothing. There are only small variations to the main theme but yet it feels constantly evolving and never repetitive. The recurring base note gives this piece its unique character. I really liked it. As for details, maybe the water at the end flows a little bit too fast to be consistent with the overall serenity. Just my two öre. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
