    Really nice this one Wookster.
    Every sound is perfect for the piece and when that ARP kicks in, lovely jubbly.

    As I said on the soundcloud comment (gentle alien music ), its so hypnotic with those arpeggios and soundscape going on but with a very catchy progression. I really liked it. Nice one and great mix

    Its nice to be important but its more important to be NICE :-)

    Thank you Daryl, nothing like a little bit of feeling jubbly. 

    Thank you Simon, you are most kind and thanks for the soundcloud comment.
     
    Thanks to you as well Mark, please you enjoyed my piece.

    You did a good job of keeping the various sounds under control and not allowing any of them to overwhelm the song or mix. I have a hard time evaluating stuff like this because my mind's ear keeps hearing other songs branching off of your themes, lol. Very nice though, and I love the synths you chose.

    Thank you Dan, always nice to hear that another may have been inspired by my furry noodles.

    Love those filter sweeps and nicely arranged throughout. Nice to hear those synths too.
    The arpeggio parts reminded me of a couple of electronic musicians known as Software back in the 90's

    Enjoyed this 'furry noodle', there is a nice build of tension up to when the arp kicks in. Good stuff.

    yep, that's a fun one, nice job with it. That initial filter sweep brought me back to Clockwork Orange!

    Someone also commented about the tension in this. You utilize some very subtle pitich bend techniques that create some of that.  I enjoyed this. If I were the producer, I might suggest some dramatic tympani persussion at times....   and pedal steel ;)

    Very cool, your furriness.   Airy, yet still solid.   I liked those bell-like tones mixed in...
     
    Benevolent or malevolent I'm not sure, but those slightly dissonant bends makes me think they're at least impish.

    Finally, I got to listen to this Wookster and did enjoy it very much. Loved all the different synth sounds you used on this......they fit very well and flowed quite nicely. Nooooiiiiice one mate!!

    Nice one John. Once again you've captured the mood and feel of the title. One of my favourites from you, very full and lush sounding.
     
    Edit: sounds terrific through headphones, really moves around, just like the subject matter.
