Description : Another ancient tune I collaborated on with a great friend of mine back in 1992. If anyone knows a Ken Moran who once lived in Hilo, Hi. and worked at Boulder Creek Round Table Pizza in Ca. I am searching for him. He did all the guitar work and we both did keys. This song really takes you somewhere else. Update March 2011. Ken found me on Facebook! He lives in Camboda currently!

It's a drag loosing touch with musical friends. I still do the search for some of mine about every six months, and have found 3 this way (lost for 12 years), so don't give up.

I really like this track. It easily could be a cinematic piece, yet works perfectly for ambient as it really reaches in and plucks the emotional strings. I love soundscaping strings like this, and it reminds me of some 4 track stuff I did in grad school with a Balinese rebab running through a Boss DD-2 into my Laney Linebacker (https://www.looperman.com/users/detail/247253) - it's like whale songs, but not. A musical metaphor? How your pieces shifts into a more rhythmic intensity really brings Tangerine Dream to mind, too. Yeah this is fabulous, and I hope you do more ambient stuff sometime. Cheers.

You are right about this tune taking you somewhere else. Could easily be music for a battle scene in a desert, or futeristic sci-fi....wherever the imagination takes you. This is the sheer craftsmanship of this track, sounds blending together causing the listener to go places. Immensly enjoyable and gets my vote.

I know a Berry Morgan, but not a Ken Moran. LOL. Makes me think of whales in the ocean. Interesting track. Everything you do is at a professional level.

Hi Rei,
This was my Westone Spectrum DX with a Bendmaster Deluxe Whammy bar, Going Through a tiny amp called a Rockman by Tom Scholz, going through a Digitech DSP 256 FX processor. He used the volume knob alot. From that, straight into the old Tascam 246 four track cassette recorder.

Awsome quality. This song captures the essence of ambient muzak. Despite the dictionaries definition of muzak, this song isn't bland at all it is full of emotion and gives you a certain feeling of eerieness to it. Very smooth and moving. I like everything about this track. Your friend Ken did a phenominal job on the guitar. The delays create a nice padded sound. This was nice collaberation effort. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.

Description : Draft from my old defunct laptop. Lost some plugins and not sure I'll come back to it. The wee vocal sections were never added to and the mix probably needed more work too. But thought I'd post it for a bit anyway, if people like it maybe try to finish it. Pseudoble played some synth. Music made by humans.

Description : I wanted to create an EDM-nostalgic pop type track. Liek the ones Kygo used to upload in 2016. With a euphoric trance feel but electronic vibe. Highly melodic though. This can be a summer anthem. Although winter's coming. Cheers.
