You see, listening to this song again I remember now. 8)

It was at night as the calming melody of the flute opened the door of my subconscious mind. The Trojan horse is quickly invited deep into my thoughts as I enjoy an Arabian carpet ride over the sands of Persia...by the songs end the seed was planted and all lived happily ever after. :hihi:
LMAO - it's all good bro. :)

Thanks to all who have a listen. :)

I've remixed this as a slightly more ambient track using the same sound sources with different processing.

Love the piano on the original, especially the dissonant chords. Always a sucker for echo. Flute (or pan pipes ) is lovely.
The last synth sound is also great. The drums carry the whole track along well.

Music with progressive intent.

OMG I LOVE this drum sounds ! (Are there any similar software based ?)


°°° Shrouded in mellow:chilly:waves surrounded by DisTonality °°°

°°° Duality of infinite protection and strained awareness °°°

°°° Ascending ethnoesk:mysticism enforcing deep:stirring:covetousness °°°

°°° Resigned in breathy Kaval:esk spheric:clouds °°°

°°° Flawless flow °°°


Great track.

Thanks a lot folks!

Daniel - there are most definitely software drums layered in there... the hihats I'm sure. The Machinedrum doesn't necessarily have mind blowing sounds, but the overall writing experience with it is a pleasure, and in this case the sounds created on the Machinedrum suggested the entire groove to me. Great video clip, btw, beautiful and calming, thanks.

Ah ok !

What I thought at first was, that this bass is a part of the drumgroove as well.
Because the Machinedrum do have other sounds too, right ?

However, it was the conjunction of bass and drums, which kicked me that much :)
