Bravo!
I really like this piece - the simple motif that builds with complex rhythms. Backward-forward thinking on a collision course with past futures - my translation of fuite en avant!

thanks

care to venture a guess on the identity of that little furry creature?

Moviz said 171 days ago
At times
this has a Russian feel to the melody and I love the gradual build up of instruments and the added drums.... sounds like a huge peace march with candles in the night through the town or country.... but in Russia LOL, enjoyed it very much, Cheers M

davisamerica said 171 days ago

Amazing
Amazing piece of work very beautiful done.... LOVE it.

michael2 said 170 days ago
beautiful
such a great melody. i could hear a crowd singing this as they walk towards an uncertain destiny.

now what happened to that poor hamster?

Roxylee said 170 days ago
Is it a Pika?
Whatever it is, it's cute. The composition, on the other hand, is amazing. I love this one, Bill. :-)

lavalamp said 170 days ago
Enjoyed this
Very good work. Relaxing and laid back. I could hear this as a theme song to detective TV show.

Good work.

SmokeyVW said 170 days ago
that little furry creature is...
...not a hamster

...not a pika

clue: there is a really good reason for that pic.

Ejh said 164 days ago
Is it...
...a lemming?

That's my guess...

Ed

SmokeyVW said 164 days ago
yes
it is in fact a lemming!

Dj French Toast said 169 days ago
Very cool song
smoke : ) I love the vox in there ,,how did you do that I really want to be able to sample voices like that but Im not hip as to how its done : )

SmokeyVW said 169 days ago
.
I'm glad you asked!

The vocal synth is from JamPack World Music. Choir/South African Singers. Although you can play chords, it works better if you split the chords into separate tracks, and then pan them different amounts to spread it out. It works nicely while mixed with other sounds, but the voices all alone sound a little fake.

thanks

Vic Holman said 169 days ago
great
really nice production on this. nice build up with the melody.

don't know what the furry creature is. But, if it's anywhere near my house, chances are the cat has eaten it.

Ejh said 164 days ago
In fact...
...this one looks like a lemon-flavored lemming...

Ed

peacepiano said 160 days ago
Modal
Nice work shifting the melody about. Plus the gentle work on the dynamics and backing instruments adds interest. Enjoyed.

Thanks

Beautiful track Bill
I love the patient development and your choices of voices are exquisite. Took me a while to get here - but I'm sure glad I did.
