Second week submission to WeeklyBeats.com. This one started out kinda trippy and I really didn't have any direction, but once I started to layer and added the transition effect, the concept seemed to gel. Had fun finishing this one. And now that it's done, I'm thinking it'd be a cool soundtrack for a short time-lapse video of airport operations... may have to try and fabricate one to go with the tunes big_smile

Included samples are the default Jet samples from GarageBand: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2931

Feedback is welcome!

hahaha, your concept for a time-lapse video of airport operations feels spot on!

got a great 70s-era Kraftwerk vibe from this.  liked it a lot.

Thanks jjensen23'! Didn't purposefully base it on Kraftwerk, but I've heard so much of them over the years I likely channeled it big_smile

Nice one! I'm sure if you had enough time you'd add more orchestration at the later half right (where I think a cello comes in) But totally get the airport vibe. :-)

Good call greg.igaya -- I've just started exploring orchestration and yeah, I could do more with to continue the buildup. Thanks for the suggestion!
