I didn't have any ideas for this week's song until Friday evening where I thought I could try to do something in the style of Philip Glass. There's a lot going on in the song despite the minimalism influence. Perhaps there could have been a better ending, but it's hard to know when to stop with minimalism!

really does sound quite glass-y in every sense of the word. the fade out ending could've been a lot worse!
i like this! i wish there had been some kind of key change to the underlying chords to really drive it home.
Really nice. Even the synths sound glassy to me. Also reminds me of earlier Sufjan Stevens (which I guess is Glass-y.)
big fan of glass (koyaanisqatsi!) and this is an enjoyable riff off his work, thanks!
I agree with Scott, the title's awesome. I'm also a long (long) term fan of Philip Glass (and other minimalists of his era), and while I get the reference, I still feel your own work has a uniqueness about it : ) More please!
mmm, this is nice. definitely like the lead that sneaks in in the back half.
