Ambient electronic track: The Sound of Snow

This is an ambient track, recorded entirely with soft synths.  It starts slowwwwww, but after about 1 minute 40 seconds, rhythmns start to build in.
 
Any feedback appreciated.

    Very nice, love it. One of my favourite styles. Nice slow moving ideas, long and drawn out but enjoyable. People should slow down for longer these days and learn to appreciate pieces like this.

    Nice, the sense of suspense licking around the edge, hints of Genesis from Lamb Lies down in the opening.
     
    Very cool track I like music that takes time to develop, time to let the mind wander.
     
    Thanks for sharing

    Nice atmospheric piece. Now I know what snow sounds like. Could also sound like heat, when walking across the desert. Nicely done.
