4. Stirring Spirits 03:44

A very warm and appealing track. Hard to pin down, with elements of ambient, pop, new-age and urban. Repeating patterns of guitar and electric piano create a dreamlike, textured sonic image. Great for use with visual media, carries a lot of emotion and reflection. A sort of kaleidoscope of sound and music. Thoughtful, unique and interesting. This track is available in many different versions, with or without the high guitar notes, and with or without the drums.


Stirring Spirits

Relaxed, ambient piano track with occasional acoustic guitar notes and soft pads. Melancholic, tender, impressionistic, inviting. A time for quiet reflection. Semi-classical; reminescent of the works of Erik Satie and Brian Eno. Available is also an alternative version which cuts out the pads, leaving only the piano and guitar.


Ambient Singularity
10. Dream Bell 03:17

There is something strangely reassuring and comforting about the completely random way in which rain drops fall on water, or wind chimes play in the wind. This aural painting aims to capture that unpredictable, random nature. The lack of any system or recognizeable pattern instills calmness and clears the mind.


Dream Bell

Mid-tempo, rich and lush ambient electronica with a downtempo electronica beat and a deep bass groove. This is a pretty long track at over 8 minutes featuring varied parts throughout. Somewhat magical, floaty and 'otherworldly'. Could be good for ice caps, space flight, space imagery, underwater footage, flying / traveling, technology and science, visual presentations of many types.


Ice Planet (No Drums version)

A beautiful and melancholic ambient piano track. A simple, nostalgic piano melody played with grace, finely balanced on top of a strange ambient background texture. Excellent for drama, film soundtrack work, or any sincere, thought provoking web site or film footage.


Hard To Say Goodbye
19. Daybreak 03:18

A moody and atmospheric ambient piece with ethereal pads and ambient slide guitar. Soft, yet deep and evocative, like an unfolding story or a magnificent sunrise. The track has a slight sense of ethnic mystery or the ancient world, maybe India. Very dreamy, reflective and rich on atmosphere, perhaps something spiritual.


Daybreak
20. Trip In Time 06:27

 Dark, looming pads overlay the time warp reverse rhythm track. Trippy, other worldy sound bed for anything spinning, moving fast or blurry. Kaleidoscopic interweaving textures with continual drone. Sci-fi, nature, industrial, corporate, space, mechanical, dreamy


Trip In Time

Subtle, low key, background underscore for film. Mysterious, like distant echoes of the past. Great for history, mystery, ancient tales, drama, and fantasy. Musical backdrop which provides a nerve and atmosphere, without standing out or grabbing the attention too much.


Dark Ages Shadows In Time

A beautiful and melancholic ambient piano track. A simple, nostalgic piano melody played with grace, finely balanced on top of a strange ambient background texture. Excellent for drama, film soundtrack work, or any sincere, thought provoking web site or film footage.


Hard to Say Goodbye (Piano Only mix)
24. Ice Planet 08:29

Mid-tempo, rich and lush ambient electronica with a downtempo electronica beat and a deep bass groove. This is a pretty long track at over 8 minutes featuring varied parts throughout. Somewhat magical, floaty and 'otherworldly'. Could be good for ice caps, space flight, space imagery, underwater footage, flying / traveling, technology and science, visual presentations of many types.
