A little all over the map... hmmm... maybe the medication isn't working? Some stillness and some madness, down tempo of course.

Luckily the meds are preventing me from experiencing the deep sense of shame that normally accompanies a self bump.

Seriously, I'm interested in all opinions and have an extremely thick hide so don't worry about offending me.

Well I think I understand the meaning of the intro. It starts sick and then it goes on healing.
All jokes aside, very nice build, the piano+pads provide a warm atmosphere. It makes sense.
Good job with drums as I was expecting from you
The 2nd part from 3.00 on, is more experimental and closer to my taste, well done

Cheers

the meds are making you odder, which is good. ;-) i especially love the parts that threaten to dissolve. (what a surprise.) phantasmagorical.

Ed, it's been too long since you stopped by to vent at me. Tho I've no idea why you feel the need, I want you to know I'm here for you. Thankfully, I thrive on negative attention as well.

Cheers Rick! I have tons of oddness on the back burner, but I always find it takes a lot more focus to make something meaningful (for me) out of it.

The bass sounds in the first few seconds could make a song in themselves.
Love the title, btw.
Uplifting tune. Energetic even, at times. It's most interesting parts are in the dreamscape that happens when the meds derail. 4:15 and afterwards are like watching a scene from an early 1970's sci fi film (Andromeda Strain?). very cool.

I don't know if you're still kidding or not now! You saw my smiley, right? All in good fun Ed. Happy New Year!

Thanks Jazzy! Andromeda Strain, yes, that's my era and I love the connection.

Man that bass sound in the beginning is really something! And such a stark contrast to the ending, which is equally stunning. great stuff!
