Description : EDIT: I adjusted the ending as per Paperkup's suggestion. I like it better. Maybe you will too.
The realization, and inevitable acceptance that the last ember of life is smouldering into obscurity. Then finally, and peacefully, exhaling the final breath of life.
This is a dark ambient track that will go between two of my other tracks. A good pair of headphones/earbuds are highly suggested for this one.
Opinions and criticisms are welcome. Enjoy, and take care. V.

If you have time take a listen and give ValveDriver some feedback.
bro you are Darth Vader himself always dark and menacing lol but there is a beauty to this, a depth, i felt it, a catharic verse or two could sound ok, you are commander of your own style Aaron and always deliver for the community
Hi ValveDriver, just to my ears, around 1:35, where it hits and there is also a thud. I would have liked to hear it a split second later. But that's me being extremely critical. I hope the feedback helps
Yup. I hear it now, too. That extra hold gives it a heightened element of tension. Good call. I went back in and changed it. Not only that, but I added a new element that I think helps put the period at the end of the sentence, so to speak.
Thank you for your suggestion, I wish more people would do that!
Let me know what you think of the new version.
Take care.

Hi ValveDriver, I like it. Just only one element, the final "blow" to me at least needs a little more time. But I'm prob. on my own there lol. Nice job, it got me thinking.
Hello PaperKup, First, thank you for listening and offering some feedback. But, I'm not entirely clear as to what you mean. Do you mean the final chord needs to be sustained longer, or do you mean the fadeout of the effects need to take longer before they go silent? or both? I'm totally open to suggestions on this. Ambient isn't my normal thing, so any input is good input.
Either way, thank you again for offering some critique. It's greatly appreciated.
Take care.

Hi Robin.
Thanks for taking a minute to listen and comment. I do appreciate it. Honestly, I look forward to the other two as well. Mainly because I haven't even started them yet. This was originally part of an intro to a big-ass metal track, but I liked it so much by itself, that I decided to just keep it as it's own piece.
Anyhow, thank you again, my friend.
Take care.

Hello ValveDriver, I think its great my friend.....the ambient genre is a favorite for me....this is a well done work and should work well between the other tracks.....look forward to that, nice job on this.
Thank you, Glenn. Ambient isn't something I normally do. I've tried in the past, but they always end up becoming some kind of Metal or Industrial type track instead. I always feel the need to keep adding.
Thank you again. I truly appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment.
Take care.

Description : Headphones are recommended for a more immersive experience :P - - - A weary American soldier is walking through the remains of what used to be a small town in the middle east, only to rediscover the horrible reality that sometimes war can affect even the ones who have no part in it.

This is my first attempt at creating a virtual environment to tell a story and convey emotion. Hope you enjoy! Comments are welcome!
Description : the other end of the scale from me, yep people, this is a ballad. its for all the people who have lost somebody long before their time was due,
i used my experience of tragic loss and how i hid my mental health issues that stemmed from it while writing it, its repetitive but has fresh verses
its to Matthias music Du Bist Nicht Mehr Hier almost the same title, He has suffered too that's why he wrote the music and dedicated it to his brother. i hope i have done it justice
Description : This track contains several loops, all of them are from looperman artists - listed below. I don't know if "ambient" fits well for it, but i get most loops from that category. :)
Inspired by the Final Fantasy series and my ex girlfriend. Hope you will enjoy it (not my ex! :D). As always, free to use for a song, any opinions-critics welcomed... UPDATE 2015.10.24.: improved audio quality - lower lows, higher highs. Now in 256kbps!
Description : Working with DarkKZ by Beatskillz, Synthmaster 2.9, Waves Bass Fingers, Microtonic drum synth, Izotope nectar 3 elements, Ozone 8 Elements & several other plugings I'm trying for the first time. The vocal samples are from Ghosthack, LANDR & Sampleswap. Hope you like it. Cheers.
Post script: The word "Ambient" has come up several times in the comment section for this, so I switched the genre to that. Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.
Description : Ambient, psychedelic chill out rock or something or rather. Lyrics, vocals, guitars and keyboards myself. One drum loop used (free Loopmasters ambient pack). If you want a bit of a back story on the words check the lyric page.
Description : I made this with Garageband and was inspired by Anime music, such as Naruto. And if you noticed one little part is very similar to one of the melodies.
Description : Depression and sadness can sometimes serve as motivation for creativity as in the case of this track. A few months back I went through a period of loosing a few friends and co-workers. Attended a few funerals and as a result found myself reflecting on life. One night I had the urge to try to transfer my feelings into music and this is what came out. Some baratone guitar accompanied by synth and accapella.
Final EDIT: Further tweaking on levels and a slight change up in the timimg of the choir section.
Description : I intentionally made this song minimalistic. The drums I spliced together from some drum loops I had, there's one other loop in the mix, the rest of the instruments are played by me (bass and synths). I used the excellent (and free) Cakewalk z3ta+ vst and the BBC Symphony vst. My intention was to create a very simple and dream like ambient track. Feel free to download or comment. Feedback is always welcome. Thanks.
Description : Hello,
this is a track between composition and cover.
Amandine (Sova Berry or Dine on soundcloud) made a cover of the a cappella "Song of Sophia" by Dead Can Dance.
I liked it very much, so i decided to make an instrumental with her vocals.
Hope you'll like it and if you want to comment, you are welcome, whatever you think.
Bye
Description : Ambient, Chill Out, Cinematic .... I´m not sure ... Take your headphones. Close your eyes. Start the engines and have a ride into the unknown. A spacy little trip from somewhere into anywhere outside. - U_P_D_A_T_E - I made a video to this track. So you can enjoy now the flight with open eys. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ON4u0bRZJ4k
