sad and serene. love the open window field recording sounds and how the organ-y synth blends with the bass

Magical and meditative. Beautiful work. big_smile

Graceful, solemn. Very well done.

an intensive lamentation with a beautiful subtile musical support. very well-made.

Expresses a lot without words.  Sometimes words are inadequate to express what needs to be expressed.

Nice idea, using the pads and having the lamentation like vocals in the back, giving dimension. Simple but efficient.

Love the peaceful calming feeling you get immediately from the atmosphere of the track.  The organ nicely fills out the mix in the low end.  Your vocals really give a sense of reflection and mourning. 

Hopefully I get this link pasty thing right but I just saw this Bjork clip and thought you might be interested in her explaining her new album meaning and such. I still need to sit down and give the album a dedicated listen tho.

that song/floating poem is gorgeous & thank you!

I absolutely love the mixing on this one, your voice sounds perfect and the song is gorgeous & fantastic. Bravo!

There's something remarkable about a dark drone being quite gentle and those high frequency bell-like things that show up around 1:10 or so is just a perfect moment, and I love it, and can't get enough. Really really good -- gentle, beautiful, haunting all at once. heart
