As usual, your track defines a landscape and an atmosphere in a special way.
The melodic idea that builds the ground for this track is very good; nice touch with the little vocal parts.
Pristine production and clear mix.
Liked it!
Ciao, Domenico

Another stellar effort from you Dan. It is always a pleasure to have you describe your inspiration for each piece. This song fits the image of a beautiful flower nicely. Really well done, minimal yet extremely effective. I hope all is well.

A beautiful and serene piece.
Reminds us to stop every now and then and smell the flowers along the way!
The reverb works well with ambient type of music. Well done brother Midi. Stay strong. :) -B

Great track. Leaves me with a nice feeling...

Really nice track. Love the ambience of water in the background. You captured the essence of a foggy forest perfectly :)

I'm so glad I grabbed a fresh cup of coffee for this one Dan. Beautiful work with the glass bow synth. It is not easy to work with an instrument that has such a dissonant sound, but you did so with remarkable results. My only complaint is that it wasn't another two to three minutes longer, haha. I loved it. Time to hit play again and finish that cup of coffee. This one proves that less sometimes can definitely be more. Well done. I hope all is well.

Very interesting tack here. I think this would work good in a film of some sort. Probably best in a horror or a thriller. Ambient tracks always put me in a mood that is indescribable. This one certainly didn't break the cycle. Nice work my friend!

Really strange yet peaceful sound. Could really feel like something was being painted onto my consciousness while listening. Props to you sir! The only thing I could say is to get a new water sample because its looping pretty hard lol.

But great work!

I love the glass bowed effect, I have worked with ambient sounds like this before and it makes the best dissonant effects. This is a great effort my friend and i tthoroughly enjoyed it.

funny all the places that musical inspiration can come from...I suppose my enjoyment of this one results at least in part by the fact that nature, atmospheres, feelings, places tend to influence some of what I try to do myself...it paints the picture you describe very nicely Dan...nice clean mix...looks like Spiv has some further contributions to make so hope to get back for a listen later....very nicely done....keep on....Ed

Hey buddy! It's good to hear this WIP on looperman! I think you have some really cool concepts in this one. Apologies that I have not gotten to contribute to it as of yet. Hope to find some time today. You asked about the stereo/mono thing, and I guess I'll start by interpreting how I hear this one. Within, I definitely hear effects which are stereo in nature, and possibly stereo samples or synths (though I can't say for sure because of the effects). Beyond that, there is very little actual placement (panning) within the mix, which is I think where your question comes from. Even if you've used a stereo sound or plugin, everything will seem very centered. That doesn't mean it's mono, but I also wouldn't consider it a finished mix. With just this one track, that's all I can really say, and I realize it is "in progress" so don't take it too seriously. I will try to send you some contributions by the weekend! Great work so far.

hi Dan. I really enjoyed this one. Very 'eastern' and 'contemplative' music. nice work. Alex

Brilliant piece of picture painting...same horror as on the photo...:-)
Modern age impressionalism in music!

Congrats Dan, Danke

really fitting: I am in the middle of a foggy afternoon... unfortunately I am surrounded by concrete buildings and not by a forest, but your track worked as well.
Once more, your track serves perfectly the picture.
Ciao, Domenico

Very interesting feel for this. Has a beautiful airy feeling to it. I like the uniqueness of this one haha. Great stuff.

Different in many ways and that's a good thing...
Has a nice space to it, I'm not sure where the feel is
but the sounds work in the mix...

Solid piece of work...

Peace...TG.

Quite an enjoyable expression here! Found it funny reading about your willow tree experience! I am enthralled by our willow tree in the front yard sometimes. It showed up in the background of the photo of my new microphone. We planted it and have had the pleasure of watching it grow for many years now. I like the bass part quite a bit here, very classic electronic sounding. Definitely the sort of art that I have come to expect from you. Had fun listening my friend!

hi Dan. I really liked that futuristic sounding chord progression at the beginning. the tone of this instrument is also interesting. nice fretless bass sound at the end. I downloaded it - I think it is some quite interesting idea which might be developed into somenthing, we will see.
Best to you, Alex

when i was a teenager a few a friends and I took some lsd at a freind's apartment, on the wall was a painting of a large potted plant. That damn thing literally grew when we looked at it! I see that crysanthemum doing the same listening to the music with it!! :D

Would you do a ranunculus song for me if I painted some for you?

While I was listening I had my guitar in hand, tried a few things that
didn't work in the traditional ways...
Going outside the box, that far is not familiar waters, for me I've learned
early in life never swim in water, that you don't know what's on the bottom...

So it's cool Man...Movin on...

Peace...TG.

Sounds a bit more like ranunculus to me.

This is a really nice soundscape. Your stuff just keeps getting better and better. Love the simplicity of the piece with the big reverbs. Excellent pads and it goes really well with the pic as well.
Good job Mr Sparks.

Cool sounds, very theatrical in it's nature tone wise...
Well that's the box I've known that sound to be in, I can
remember anyone using for anything other than...I guess
it's just the way the formula's played...
Huuuum...Jazzy kinda ride might work...

Peace...TG.

Very well presented with the picture Dan!

Deep... Real... Soulful.. Meaningful... And full of Nature!

In a pensive mood now and i dont wanna come out of it... :) Thanks for this...

A Very Good One!
