The Picture of Dorian Gray

[TracingArcs]

The last demo for Pianobook https://www.pianobook.co.uk/ for this year. I was re-reading The Picture of Dorian Gray. and three interesting instruments popped up on the Pianobook Advent Calendar. That prompted this cinematic cue type thing. Americana Tapestries by Joshua Meltzer,  Etheral Guitar Textures by IN House Instruments, and Marimba Clusters by Saturn V Sound. Time to put up the feet and indulge till its 2022.

I love the way  this subtly builds up and becomes mesmerizing as it goes along.  It's very haunting, as it should be, and that's easier said than done.  All in all, brilliant!

[TracingArcs]

Thanks Lynn. It means a lot when it is understood what you wanted to achieve. ?

[DeeringAmps]

I think Lynn said it best...

This is a slow burn and a good ride. My ears and brain enjoyed every second, and the mix clarity is out-friggin'-standing! Well done!
