Inspiration comes from new toys!!
Early Xmas present from me to me - the Komplete Kontrol S49 and the Arturia V Collection 4. Both on special offers of course! This led to a couple of happy evenings in the zone and I came up with "Autumn Winds Ambience" (it was blowing a hooley outside at the time, as we say in England). I'm really happy with this one, please don't shoot me down in flames! https://soundcloud.com/simon-godfrey-712294552/autumn-wind-ambience

I see you found my secret to 16k posts.  Don't let my post count fool you.....I'm only a hobbyist musician that truly appreciates good melody, composition, and good sound quality........which your music certainly portrays. The others in here are the pro's.........besides, my post count is mostly from the CH.

As Mesh noted a finely composed and constructed piece, I would have called more a Piano ambient piece than electronica though, just my furry thought.
Nice job all round well recoded and mixed thank you for sharing.

Toys are fun! Good mix and blend of sounds, the sub bass is cool.

Hi, Simon, It sure sounds like the new toys paid off! Beautiful composition and playing with tasty melodies, great piano and synth work, and a crystal clear, nice wide sounding mix! Really well done, excellent work!  Best Wishes, Bob
