Soothing This is a great piece and suits the genre well. You've done an excellent job here. It take your mind on a journey. It reminds me of some David Sylvian stuff, of which I am a fan. Check out my latest song called In Difference

shake it out a little Love this overall, except for one thing, which is probably just me (others may completely disagree), but the rain-stick sound, panned over to the left, that comes in fairly regularly throughout the piece got very distracting. I really liked it the first two times, but having it be constantly rattling through the piece detracted from the music. Possibly have it show up in the beginning, the middle and the end, just a few sprinkles? The switch to major at the 2/3 mark was almost startling, and was a good thing, unexpected and intriguing. Overall, very nice mood music! Nice orchestration & pacing. ttfn, Drakonis Check out my latest song called Belle Aire (for Mandolin Orchestra)

shake it out a little Thanks Drakonis! I'm not sure if it's the mix or the headphones we're using. On my Sennheiser Px200 (admittedly not the most expensive headphones) the mix seems fine; would be curious if in fact my headphones are inaccurate when it comes to trebles. Should look into that. Appreciate the comment though. Check out my latest song called Tosh Frenzy

Headphones I thought I might add my 2 cents worth here about the headphones. I'm not familiar with the Px200s, but I've got a pair of Sony MDR-7509 Pro headphones and I can hear every little nuance, almost to a fault. They are excellent for mixing! I too used to have a lesser expensive set of headphones and I noticed that my mixes were off. I'd try out my music in my car and everything sounded weird. After getting the MDR-7509s, I re-mixed everything and it made a world of differance. I am VERY happy with them. You might check out eBay to see if anyone has them available. I would try there first. I believe they list for $285 a pair. I got them on eBay for about $140 in PERFECT condition. Anyway, just thought I'd give a helpful hint to a fellow member. Peace!

thank you for the transportation. that's what this feels like. I'm here, physically, but I'm not. What an amazing thing to create music that can lift a part of you and send it to a different place... even for a moment. I feel different. Next time, can you make it longer? I'm afraid the 'vacation' didn't take. :-) This is perfection. Check out my latest song called Little Perfect*

thank you Wow! I overlooked your comment, when I posted this song. I'm not even gonna take credit for that experience and just thank you for your generous comment! Isn't it great that music can sometimes do that?! Still think it depends on the listener's own receptivity and creativity, though. Thanks again! Check out my latest song called Tosh Frenzy

lush and atmospheric I've always liked your tracks, but this particular one is my favorite so far. It does have a certain maturity of concept, and the production values are very high here. This music has a very pleasantly contemplative, almost meditative mood. The insistent triplet beat (or 3/4 time) throughout the song is captivating, especially when the beats shift emphasis. This is consistent and unexpected at the same time -- a very artful arrangement of beats! The choice of sounds is excellent, and especially the way you layer them. The rainstick sound could have been used a bit more sparingly as an occasional "spice", but it wasn't too much for my ears, anyway; there was enough interest in the other sounds to carry it along successfully. I liked the melody line which you introduced in the middle, which appeared again towards the end. It provided this track with more focus and "identity". I would have liked this theme to be used much earlier on, but actually the way you built this piece from the repeated chords at the beginning to the thicker texture including melody later on did work WELL. The juxaposition of major and minor chords was nicely done, and infused some tension without being tense. It created a lot of interest in this piece. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this track, enough to download! (rare for me) Thanks for sharing and please do compose more music like this! You're onto something very good here.

lush and atmospheric Thanks, Cameron for your time and musical insight! Your detailed comments and thoughts are invaluable.

very smooth` sort of like James Newton Howard - really nicely done. There's a nice subtle surge to the rhythm throughout, even as instruments drop out, that pulse is there. I love the impressionism - lots could be happening on this screen, very complex and sort of wild sounding. The ascension with the winds is astounding. Very enjoyable!

Great Music. Beautiful. Meditation, indeed. You capture it's dream-like state, stillness and peaked awareness at the same time. I love the piano approach; it's use. It's short almost unsustainable chords in contrast to the other instrumentation. It makes me feel as if it's brief sustain is our brief reality in the sea of musical textures representing the one true reality. Curious. Do I detect a bit of a Lyle Mays influence here, maybe? If so, he couldn't have done better. Check out my latest song called Christmas Time Is Here

Lends itself to Cinematic Treatment Hi Parichayaka: This piece would really be good with HD nature footage which is becoming more and more popular with the new "inexpensive" HD cameras....I suggest you go to some of the sites devoted to people doing HD production and let them know you have music for their films...one site is DVX.com....Go to the thread for the HVX HD camera and post part of your song there and see if you get any bites....Would go especially well with footage shot in Kauai.....Peace, Norman Check out my latest song called Blues in the Night 2.0

Beautiful I've always liked your stuff - every single piece - and this doesn't change that a bit. You always manage to create such a smooth, soothing atmosphere that one can't help but be taken aback by it. Drak has a point about the rain stick, but if he hadn't mentioned it I'm not sure I would've noticed it. Yet another favorite, yet another download. Wonderful.

New age calm Calm, peaceful, but enough musical interest to make me want to hear it several times. Nicely paced. You've got serious compositional chops. The ending caught me a bit by surprise; it feels inconclusive, but maybe deliberately so? I also agree with drakonis' rain stick comment. There are a lot of options for what to do with it, if in fact you would like to do anything different with that rain stick sound. One is it use it more at the begininng, but gradually discontinue it, allowing us to focus entirely on the music, and as drakonis suggests, perhaps bring it back a bit towards the end. Another is to explore other kinds of sound effects, like bamboo wind chimes, metal wind chimes, wind sounds, sparse vibe notes played with soft mallets with slight pitch-bending, etc., and have them enter periodically, and see how you like that. One of the basic strategies I advocate in composition is "less is more," meaning try not to overdo anything to the point where the listener can no longer take delight in hearing it. Except when the point of the piece is to be loud, aggressive, climactic, boistrous, etc., in which case, "more is more!" Check out my latest song called Momma's Song

New age calm Great comment! I listened to the mix only on on set of headphones, and realised afterwards that there is a little too much percussion going on in the higher frequencies (rainstick etc.). I also agree with you "less is more" viewpoint. Really appreciate detailed comments like that. Thanks again! Check out my latest song called Tosh Frenzy

Beautiful and unhurried. Beautiful unhurried piece which you just let unfold and happen without forcing anything. Loved the delicate touches you included. The interplay of the flute and piano was gorgeous. At times it reminded me of early Yanni without being sickly sweet. I also loved your colors and sonic palate. Great work.

Grazie Ho meditato prima di fare questo pezzo. Volevo combinare vari tipi di strumenti ed influenzi musicali, e mi sembrava una buona idea di iniziare con un'energia un po piu profonda. Sono molto contento che ti piaceva, e si - hai ragione, ho visto molti paesi, e spero che si senta anche questo...Grazie del tuo interesse! Check out my latest song called Tosh Frenzy
