A distant summer's day

Exactly how I felt.  I like the episodic phrases (probably not the right term), kind of like Brian Eno. The little tweets fit right in. Beautifully relaxing.

Love this. Love the tweets which sound very authentic, monkeys and birds. That came from "Kinetic Metal" ?

 I listened on headphones and the bass was present yet not overwhelming, a very good foundation.

I liked that the durations for each chord felt right, as opposed to a rhythm from the grid approach.

cool stuff!

cheers,

What are you using for the bass?

[TracingArcs]

Thanks again DeeringAmps. The bass is a Kontakt freebie I have had for some years from Sample Modern called Deep Bass. Sample Modern is now defunct. However I've searched around and have found it here https://nouveaubaroque.weebly.com/blog/sample-modern-is-off-but    From the originator (along with some other stuff as well). It's a very solid but tweakabke bass sound I've used a lot.

Great! I like this a lot -- very soothing and hypnotic.

I think you struck a really nice balance between the ambient sounds and the music, and also between the various layers of instrumentation; from the low-end to the high it meshes together pretty well to my ears.

Enjoyed listening.
