Third (and final) of a series. More long-form focus. Total length 48:42.

Thanks for listening. Comments encouraged.

Another shifting, evolving soundscape, but with a longer cycle-time between each variation/generation. I found this difficult to listen to with other things going on, so switched of my screen and the lights.

Good work

Thanks Seismic. This one is definitely different and serves a different kind focus

Just a bump to say that Presence was featured on Synthtopia today for their free music Friday series:

If you like pure electronic ambience and haven't heard it yet, give it a download - it's long @ ~ 42 minutes. It's name-your-price including free, so give it a spin.

I like me some long form ambient , and this is a fine example ...
driving music ...

I'm only four minutes in, but I'm LOVING this!

Thanks for the kind words, guys. Made my day.

Presence started strong and did not disappoint. Wonderful textures and soundscapes throughout.

It kinda reminded me of the music at the beginning of Close Encounters of the Third Kind (the very beginning), and parts of the end of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I may need to pick this one up.

Thanks, Kitty. Needless to say, you're golden. And thanks again.

Just wanted to thank all of the KVRians who downloaded this, and offer my heartfelt gratitude for those that purchased - you guys & gals are amazing.

I downloaded all your albums, what I've heard so far is great! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks SampleScience. Those three were conceptual pieces linked in a chain - a trilogy I guess you'd say. I have some stragglers in that same style that didn't fit in ultimately. I may finish them and make them available on Bandcamp if there's enough interest. It's looking likely at this point.

How many listeners would you say you have?

I thought I was one of the only ones actively seeking out and listening to this type of music.

I recently found Meg Bowles and I find I'm really taken with her stuff.

Hard to say re: listeners. I put the first album up on Bandcamp on August 1st and since then I've added the two others and the plays have been way, way above what I ever thought it would be in a little over two months. And while the plays have been great, downloads/purchases are a small percentage of that number - a very small percentage.

Still, for what is basically a word of mouth operation for some very niche ambient/electronic, I'm very pleased with progress so far. I love this kind of very quiet & minimal production, always have, and I'm always pleased when other people do to - because like you said, for a long time, I thought I was one of the only ones! It wasn't until I started putting stuff out during the Myspace boon that I found that there actually was an audience for this kind of material.

If you want to hear what Phase47 sounded like half a decade or so ago, there's this old abandoned Myspace page:

I may yet revisit some of that old material. Who knows. Thanks for listening.
