Ok. I'm not anywhere near an expert on ambient music. In fact...i never really liked it until i started listening to d callen about a year ago. So my experience with ambient music is not good. But i will tell you what i can 
So the intro doesnt do much for me..the sound of a guitar tuning is a little out of place. But thats not really a compliant..cause it only last about 10 seconds. I like the pad you use here..very simple, yet intriguing. Nice "whoosh" fx. The bass hits are great. The cutoff sounds really good on that bassline. I hear some bass drum and some congos...but not really much percussion to speak of. Which is cool..it keeps the song nice and hollow.
The first breakdown is well timed, i already spoke about the guitar tuning. Nice spacey noises here. The little teaser of a vocals is cool. The song takes a really dark turn here (around 1:40). The added bassline is cool...the long sustaining bass gives some contrast to the rest of the song. 2:30 the pads come in a little abruptly..but nothing too extreme. Sounds a lot like the beginning with the exception of the added vox (which is a great addition).
It is a short song...but all and all i really liked it. All the songs on your page are great..very relaxing. Perfect for someone who is looking to calm down. I like how everything is very hollow sounding and seperated...sounds like outer space. Once again...if you havent read the bio...you should 
cheers! |
