Description:
'The Space Between Your Ears Is Not Enough'

Picture in your mind and endless tunnel, through the universe, that beings can travel along, stopping where they must, to tap an entry into 'another reality' with some, all or no reference to any reality they either came from or could speculate about.

(At around 3 minutes into the journey the beat changes in a subtle way, to denote a change of perspective, then again around 3:45, where the new reality dawns on the visitors, each seeing/understanding the world
based on their previous knowledge).

The changes denote perceptions changing in context with the new surroundings, the constancy (where
evident in the music) denote periods of time in different environments. The changes, though slow, are fast and dreamlike (relatively) because these new contexts have not been experienced before and therefore need assimilating into the traveller/visitors perspective. Everything is internal as far as understanding and awareness. In their minds.

It all has to be seen, experienced, reasoned, understood, assimilated.

Then understanding dawns.....

Reality IS.

(The background, occasional noises are neurons firing, wherever you hear them).

This tune is best listened to on huge speakers, not headphones, hence the first line of this note.

(I guess it's just another one of the musical itches that I had to scratch).

The programming of the various parts was somewhat of an ache.

I had to hear it on my better equipment to really enjoy this. Very driving mood, some times rotating like an worm hole. Interesting work!

Thanks a lot for sharing!

I'm glad to enjoyed the 'spaciousness' of this track. I tried to use an 'outdoor' reverb effect, to give that space, after compression was added to the original mix.

The effect used was Magnus's Ambience Reverb (from Smartelectronix).

Thanks for listening.

Paul.

Love the wording here - &mdash 05/28/07 - 07:17:56 AM
I am inspired by your striving to go internal with images-senses unseen and pull out a visionary experience through music!

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a few words....

I try, occasionally, to describe the picture any piece of music I create evokes in me.

The description of 'The Way' is mine, the idea being Greg Bears', a truly wonderful Sci-Fi author. All I've done is try and mirror my ideas in sound, minus the Jarts, who don't appear in my picture (for those who've read Greg's work). The Jarts are too warlike for my tastes, except probably roasted in honey and served with nan bread.

Paul.
