Very pleasant and it’s the first time that i hear you using a drums. The construction of this piece, only instrumental, is surprising but it stays coherent.. I’m always curious and interested by your work. Your very personal approach of the music and your work around the sound is enriching for all the others musicians. Your remix doesn’t resemble to any other one…Great..!

Nice soundscape! I like the way you combine ambient and ethnic elements, hold together with this fade in-fade out drumloop.
While I am sitting at my desk, it entertains, qualms down and gives me inspiration though. A surprising and interessting musical idea. T O P! |

Great! A slightly new side of your musical character (to me at least), but with that open quality that you always have.

Really neat collage of sounds here, especially the more organic ones (flute, the metallic sounds, etc). I love the poem too. Very nice work, wonder what would have happened if you gave it some more time (as in length of the piece) to develop. I think it could have become a little more than it wound up as.

Thanks. I think you’re right that this one might have benefitted from being longer. Although I sometimes create work which fits the ambient type as being long-ish ( http://www.negativesoundins... )
I tend to get on a theme lately which I think of as the “Ramones” theme. It goes something like “if the Ramones could so so much in 2 or 3 minutes, so can I”. I wonder if the mp3 player movement has influenced me, because one thing that I notice is that I like the constant variation that shorter songs on my mp3 player offer. Yet, there’s nothing quite as much fun as when an ambiemt piece I enjoy, such as Peter Koniuto’s ambient album Past Andromeda (a free download at http://www.stasisfield.com ) accompanies an otherwise quiet hike at its full 55 minutes of glory. Thanks for the constructive criticism, which helps. |
