Super chill. Really needed something like this. Thanks!

Sounds like spring and makes me think about walking on a beach or by the water. That delay feedback is really cool. 

Instant palate cleanse and wake up call for ears. Simple (probably deceptively simple), effective, great. Love the birds.

The gif matches the sounds so well. Really does feel like a mental cleansing piece

Nice, this is a change up for you from what I've normally heard. The vibe this gives off reminds me a lot of Disasterpeace's work on Fez. Some of the tracks are serene and peaceful but he warps their sound a bit with excessive effects (big reverb, super fast arpeggiation, white noise) something that seemed appropriate about a game where a 2D man discovers there are 3 dimensions, warping his perspective of reality.

I went on a long tangent about Fez BUT this song gives me that kind of vibe. It's a cool accomplishment to take what would normally be disorienting sounds and making it serene and peaceful.

Nice.  Starts off quite intense and almost harsh and abrasive, but I don't know if my ears just adjusted or what but it started to sound kind of pretty to me fairly quickly.  Definitely gave my brain a little jolt though.  smile

Yeah something about this feels really refreshing and reviving, like drinking cold water on a hot day. Love it.

thank you all!  this piece started with the bird sound out my window & was going in a different direction - then the dogs... all of the neighborhood dogs got set off so i took it a different direction

i have sensory processing struggles - this was my attempt to calm myself down - i almost adjusted that beginning synth sound - it bothers me but it kinda felt like it worked somehow - earlier that day i had heard a scientist on an interview talk about how silence used in the middle of a music piece resets something in the brain more than silence in the beginning or end of a music piece - that was the inspiration for this

living in a packed neighborhood it feels like silence is difficult to come by & i wonder about why some sounds like the birds signing affect me so much differently than the dog barking which to me is a lot the same as a baby crying or a person screaming... attempting reset  smile

hypnotic!

Very serene indeed.  It's like waking from a dream state and just staring out into mother nature.  I like the use of the delay on the chirpy chirps smile

This goes from unsettling too serene. It's almost like looking into someone's mind where their idea of serenity is slightly different from yours. The first synth I think is rather harsh to my ears but you acclimatize to it and it it gives you an almost empty feeling when it's gone.
