different enough... Interesting, this sounds moderately different than the first, could be the slightly faster tempo. Were the initial two synths panned that far apart in the other one? It gives this spatial separation that practically tickles my brain. There are parts in here that remind me a LOT of the great Christopher Franke (from Tangerine Dream) and some of his movie background music for Babylon-5. This is dreamy spacey goodness, and the percussion is so much nicer now, bolder. And, as with all great things, too short... it stopped just as I was reaching escape velocity.... sigh. Excellent work Kristine! I am critique-less :) ttfn, Drakonis |

wow - COOL! This is the first ambient track of yours that I've heard, and I'm quite impressed. It's great that you have a variety of musical styles. Good choice of sounds and good pacing of layers. I particularly like the sixteenth-notes cascading downward. The tympani sound is also a nice, unexpected touch. (I am very interested in the ambient genre and hope to write some music like this, but don't know much about it.) However, I would venture to say that a lot of ambient tracks I've heard are longer than this one -- seems to be part of the style, sort of timeless, stretching into infinity -- so I was hoping to hear much more here, because this track has such a pleasant, kicked-back mood. I hope that you might consider lengthening this to about twice its current size. This music is very cool! |

One of my... ...early loop & midi pieces was called SOLAR WINDS (long since deleted). I love the concept. I think you have done it justice. There is some similarity between your tune and mine UNTIL the change-up in the mid-section in yours, which is magnificent. Bravo! Be well! |

Ohhhh, Kristine Too short. That's my only critique. This was pure pleasure to listen to. Sometimes ambient tracks go on too long. But this one could have gone on longer for my money. Super job--it just swept me away. |

Tangerine-esque Reminds me the old days sitting around my dorm room with the lights off, a certain something burning in the water pipe, and Tangerine Dream cranked on the stereo! Very peaceful, builds nicely--in fact, it lacks the crazy crescendo that many Tangerine Dream songs would build to, and thankfully so... Jim |

Burrr... This really got my imagination stirring, Kristyjo. You got some wonderful ambient sounds flowing here. Of course, I really liked the percussive work in this. As hot as I can imagine solor winds to be, I felt the eerie cold emptyness of space on this. I was transported, to say the least. Nice work! Thanks Macca |

thoughts from the bull... i can't really add much to what has been said. this is simply a lovely piece that deserves as much attention as it gets. it's a keeper and i'm glad i came across it. actually, i discovered it by chance at MacIdol where it's received some very nice praise, as well. great music! big applause on this! |

Great comp I love those deep tones. Very nice environment. Fullness. Makes me want to go solar sailing! |

Mesmerizing... It did take me a while to get into this space, but as the chords keep changing at the same pace, and different percussion elements come and go I was quite fascinated by the atmosphere you create here! Unhurried, poised, almost mantric. I am still hitting the repeat button, so I guess I'm hooked! Really interesting, beautiful piece. |

Right up my alley I like what I hear, and it was my first pick too. The synthesizer's pads with a saw wave edge addition always mix nicely imo. When the drums and appegio patterns kick in; it smoothly adds to the atmosphere with a little bit of drama. Thanks for sharing. I'll be listening in for more. Patrick |

hearts of space.......i used to listen to hearts of space on npr radio.....this piece is just what the programmers were playing then....love the otherworldlyness of u r track.....the transporting thru music to other places and spaces.......
