Beautiful background music that refuses to stay in the background and demands to be heard! Fabulous playing and interesting sounds!
Well done! :)

Thanks, glad you like it.

I think it is interesting how people listen to music and I think different types of music work in different zones, I have never thought of what I make as background music, and dislike using the term ambient, but neither is it necessarily foreground music either, I think it sort of sits in the transition zone between full attention and background awareness so what you describe is pretty accurate, I wanted something that enables a transaction between different levels of awareness, I've always been more interested in in-between states than absolute ones.

This is wonderful, both organic and intriguing.
You should do an entire CD working on variations of this style.

I like how the instruments are clear and uncluttered, especially given the kinetic nature of the parts.

Also liked the art work, did you do that as well?

Yep - all the artwork on my Soundcloud site is mine (that one is a watercolour sketch in Painter)

thanks

I've been listening to this whilst surfing KVR. It's a great piece for just playing as a background accompaniment to this type of activity. I assume that this is a sampled piano, but some of the processing gave the mids a sound not unlike the EP-70. The old '80s nostalgia thing.

Good work :)

Then you have achieved your goal! It has a certain evenness with a spiky inventiveness. :)
