The canyon is dry,
drier than it’s ever been -
and it’s been dry, man.

Man I love that ambient pad. Is that the wavestation? That sound has such a dreamy 80's vibe to it, I tend to gravitate towards those kind of sounds. That wind-synth is really nice too. I like how you kept this pretty ambient with a lot of forward momentum without ever disrupting that ambient with too much ornamentation or a rhythm that dominates the user's attention.

this piece is lovely
sad to hear about the canyon sad

Very nice capturing a special atmosphere, with what sounds like wind instruments and the subtle percussions. With the title, this track really takes you to that place.

I like this canyon - Emily got it right with that gif. In a dry canyon in the middle of nowhere the stars come out ~

this music is fantastic. I love the instruments from 2:00 appearing. well done. I hope it will rain soon.

And yet, the streams of music keep on flowing.

Thanks! The synth pad came from a Korg M1 plugin. Haven't used wavestation too much, but I like what I've heard from people who do. wink
