this is terrific bryn - I don't know how you do this kind of stuff, it makes my brain hurt just imagining how. But you're such a master at putting these amazing sound textures together into this beautiful mosaic that I can't pull myself away from. Wonderful work, thanks!

That's ambient! &mdash 04/08/08 - 01:34:59 PM
So, it's 6.36 long. Who cares, stuff like this could go on for ever. Lucky they discovered "repeat 1" :-)

Thanks for sharing!

I like your Discreet Music, especially since you do it with one piece of hardware/software. Impressive stuff.

Touch of Budd/Eno &mdash 04/19/08 - 11:35:23 PM
With more textural underpinnings. I like the slightly distorted main keyboard sound - and your use of the stereo field. Quality work!

This is an SK1!? &mdash 04/24/08 - 09:21:47 PM
Holy cow man! Very good! Have you ever heard of Bluetech, Shen or The Album Leaf? You are certainly up there with these guys.

Keep it up!

Peace and love,
Mike
