Shizen – Earth

Description

This is the first in a series of several soon-to-be-completed experimental songs – the "Shizen" series. "Shizen," in Japanese, means "nature." I seek to capture the spiritual feelings of Earth in this composition. However, there are as many different sets of ears as there are listeners, so various impressions have been made. Future submission will include "Shizen – Heaven," "Shizen – Fire" and "Shizen – Void." I welcome and encourage all feedback. Thank you for listening.

	Shizen what an awesome concept for a series of songs. This is absolutely stunning. Great depth and texture. The sound just surrounds me and moves right through me. wonderful use of sound effects and layering. This is truly an incredible piece. Check out my latest song called Deep Majesty

Really?
I forgot that these old songs were still receiving comments. Thank you! Hadn't listened to this for ages... and after reading what you wrote, I put on the headphones and realized what you meant. There's some potential here. I shall revise. Your encouragements have been most useful. :D

Hmmm, you flatter me. I would like to make some songs downloadable. I keep most of them close due to copyright issues, but not all of them are like that. Perhaps I'll remaster this and make it publicly obtainable.

Check out my latest song called Hark, You're Alive!
