As the title stated, it's a dark ambient track. I guess that's what you'd call it. This is the first track I've posted here. I made it late last night. I'd love to get some feedback on this one. I quite like how it turned out. So... please have a listen.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. Donnie Darko is certainly within the realms of atmosphere I was trying to get though I can't remember what the soundtrack sounded like.

I liked what you did at 56 sec 107 sec mark. I love soundcloud for the waveform view, you can see some of the changes in the music that way .

Dark it is - well done. I also like that little bit of drama a little before the 2 minute mark Very Happy

Still uber-jealous of you "I did this track last night" or "Took an hour to do this" guys!

Thanks for the kind words. I'm not usually the usually a "did this in one night" kind of guy. I've got as much unfinished stuff sitting around as anyone else. This one just flowed, but I certainly missed my bedtime. I was on an all caffeine diet the next day.

this is cool, I like the vibe, sounds quite primal. Well done.

I listened to this 3 times now. Definitely creepy with nice rumblings. Really digging the Oriental flute sounds. The mix enhances the darkness (in a good way).

Good work Cool

Thanks for listening and for posting the comment (my first) on the track itself on Soundcloud. I'd been waiting for that big day. Very Happy
