Over the weekend I experimented in some new ambient pieces - all improvised. I got through them rather quickly so I spent litle time sorting out things like sound levels, but what was important was to get the mood right. I guess if anything some of it is simiilar to Translucence/Drift Music or bits of Cathedral Oceans... those albus were the main source of inspiration anyway!!

See what you think...

Ambient piece 1

Ambient piece 2

Ambient piece 3

Ambient piece 4

Ambient piece 5

Ambient piece 6

Funny that, I got the Active X, accepted it and then got disconnected from the internet frown

Safari? Firefox?

Easy peasy. Download in seconds and now sitting comforatbly in my iTunes library.

I always find its easier to download first and play later, rather than using the bwowser.

I don't see why not??
Surely you can install as many as you like?

I have three browsers in the event that a website doesn't work or looks crap in one or the other.

IE for MAc has been long overtaken by the others I mentioned.
You sure you need all that Micros*ft stuff at all? eek

Downloaded Firefox,it works but is slower than IE,also doesn't work with my companies website which is all ASP/.net.

Love the music.

Track 4 in particular bought images of rippling water & a lighthouse beam shining at me.

One day soon I will post a link to my own (& my brothers) musical projects

Sorry, Alex, I'm way behind with my posting here, but your tunes are indeed beautiful.

You know my love of creating ambient tunes, and you've certainly created some lovelies!

Nice one!

In contrast, I'm working on a more upbeat tune at the mo, but I'll let you all know when it's ready for a listen!

Finally was able to listen to it (did not open Active X this time).

Ambient 2 is beautiful, Alex.
