Very nice. Just as the high pitched melody started I thought a bit of Edgars guitar here, and then moments later in comes a guitar type lead.

To these TD-drenched ears, it's better than anything TD's done since "Canyon Dreams." Even "Goblin's Club" had its great moments, but this just sounds better and captures the spirit of melodic sequenced EM sooooo much more enjoyably, minus Edgar's miserable penchant for outright "commercialism!"

(I.e., most of the crap he's put together on his own sounds like extended incidental music or jingle material.)

This has plenty of detail on which the ear can "chew," so while the mix is definitely "dense," it's a most-delightful kind of "thickness."

Honestly, this brings to mind Rudy Adrian's best work from the "Sequencer Sketches" series. Very nice job! Got any more? Make more stuff like this, and I just may have to make a few purchases.

(And could we please have this in a higher-quality mp3 sometime - like 256kbps?

)

My only criticism: the guitar part could be a little more dymanic, perhaps a bit more "fluid"-sounding (a bit more "liquidy," so to speak). It makes its point well and has enough presence, but the sound's just a tad too static to really "speak" to me. (Sampled, right? It shows.)

I'm on my fourth listen, so...

Very much enjoying this. I think I'll be keeping a copy

Agree about the guitar lead though. Is it sequenced? I think you should try playing it live with a touch sensitive keyboard, and not quantising it. Just gives that little extra 'feel'.

cool, love the beats coming in at 1 min, and the voices sound very other worldly, lots of detail with the beats and percussion. Sounds really good.

Many thanks for or your friendly comments.

To the guitar: Unfortunately I cannot play guitar.
So it is a sampled guitar from the Kontakt 4 library.
That is the reason why it sounds a little bit static.

Hi dhalfen,

Now that's an enjoyable piece of music

Much better than anything i've heard from Tangerine Dream (though i haven't heard all their work).. very inspirirational and it's indeed a journey

Thanks for sharing this!
