    Rik,
     
    Very relaxing soundscape for sure.    This would be a great track for acupuncture treatment or other instances where relaxation is important.   Cool listen.

    Regards

    Hi  Mark, thanks for listening, glad you find it relaxing.
     
    Hi John, thanks for listening. This is three Z3ta's ,one Dropzone and a Rapture. This started as a 16 bar loop at 120bpm slowed it down to 12 bpm ; )

    Hi Rik
    This would be good for meditation - I like the sounds you used. Maybe a bit more overall reverb would add to the space a bit.
    Why can't you play guitar?

    Hi Daryl, thanks for listening, I can always add more reverb ; )   It's getting more and more difficult to play the guitar due to medical reasons, first it was just the nerve endings in my fingers dying off, now the muscles are getting affected.
     
    Hi Mark ,thanks for listening, you're right, this is a soundtrack looking for a movie ; )

    This is very cinematic sounding indeed.  I don't know a thing about promoting song but good luck in matching your song to a film.
    Very nice indeed!!

    Hi, Rik,
     
    Very nice, dreamy ambient piece with a definite cinematic feel!
     
    I've been away from the forum for a couple of months, so I'm very sorry to hear that you're having trouble playing your guitar.  I always enjoyed your tasty playing, and I hope you're medical condition improves and you get some relief.  Happily, after hearing this track, you can still channel your creativity into cinematic composition!
     
    Nice work, and sincere best wishes, my friend!
    Bob

    Well, I think this "noise" works pretty well!  It's similar to the material Andy (synkrotron) typically does.   While it aint easy keeping interest for 4:00, it seems you've done that (he says, as the tune ends  )

    Hi Rik,
     
    I am so sorry to hear your condition is getting worse. I hope you are dealing with it okay. Life can be such a bummer...
     
    Hirundine is a really nice piece of work Rik... Right up my street at the moment. From a tiny of research I see that it is a songbird of the Swallow family. Fitting...
     
    I've downloaded it for my offline listening pleasure.
     
    Do you intend creating more of the same? Would be great if you did, at least for me anyway...
     
    cheers

    Hi Andy , thanks for listening, glad you like it.  I don't know what I'm going to do next, but it's nice to tinker with sound.

    I'd be lost without my little explorations...

    Hi Andy, ditto ; )
     
    Hi Phil, thanks for listening, glad you like it mellow.  A couple of dibilitating diseases make guitar playing too painful and/or possible. ; (
