Death Valley Sand Dunes (video)
This is a slide show of photos I took at the Mesquite Sand Dunes in Death Valley. I wrote the soundtrack in Sonar Platinum using Omnisphere 2, Alchemy and Trilian. Thanks for any comments. http://www.bjornfredricks..om/p869285128/e7001770eBjorn

I loved it. Beautiful pictures and soundtrack.
The footprints were good to get a feeling for size.
At 3:00, I thought you were going to change up the music. It would have been helpful. Maybe its just a bit repetitive.
Really nice job!

Rimshot, thank you.
I think you're right about a change at 3:00. Going to think about that.
I was trying to find areas in the dunes without footprints but hard to do.
Depends on how windy it was the night before.

I enjoyed this soundtrack as well (great photography too!!), and also thought it would be nice to have a change in the middle. Very nice use of those synths. :)

Nice! Cool electronic ambient with just a hint of Middle Eastern "desert" feel.

Very Berlin school, I agree that change at the 3:00 mark would add a little lift perhaps bring that ARP a little more forward. Some other ear candy would also make it a little more engaging, mix is not bad I detect a couple of resonances on the xylophone thing that could do with gentle taming. But all in all nice job, thanks for sharing.
