Sitting under a tree in the sunlight watching the wind blow the grass around on the plain below - then a shiver as a cloud passes before the sun - something's not quite right with the world. I actually love your music so much man, it's so good. I always drift away somewhere.

Love how you build up such a rich texture, luscious tune!

Ah man, I loved this track about 8 seconds in. Great job! Reminds me a little of Chrono Trigger.

Les cloches tubulaires c'est grandiose... Le piano seul est déjà excellent.

Belle pièce qui fait du bien.

That is great haiku! And a lovely song. Swaying. I feel like with this on repeat writers block could go away!

Very nice little tune, love the instrumentation.  The bell hits with the piano chords sounds great.

This is such a nice track.  I love how it slowly builds.

So beautiful. This is the sort of music that makes you wish you had a creative project to hire a composer for!

A mesmerising arp, a hypnotic chord progression, moving and developing towards a satisfying final section. Brought to mind the soundtrack to Death's Door (which was fantastic).

Gorgeous music fit for all kinds of exploration! Lovely stuff

Thanks! I struggled forever with adding a melodic part - the bell melody came in just an hour before the deadline. Glad it seemed to work out okay! though I wish I'd blended it a bit better.

Really kind of you to say - it's how I think about your tracks too. Not particularly proud of this one, but getting to read your poetic description makes it worthwhile!

Thank you so much! Not sure this comes close to Chrono Trigger, but I’m very much a fan so I really appreciate the compliment.

Thanks, both for the feedback and the soundtrack recommendation! People have been talking up the game quite a bit, so I'll have to check the music out.

Much appreciated! And likewise. Plenty of projects would benefit a ton from your style!

Such a beautiful place

I've been stressed the past few weeks and I've just been taking a step back from weeklybeats and not really listening to people's music, which was a total mistake with you because yours would have given me some peace of mind. Calm and relaxing, wish I could bust out tunes like this occasionally. Still using the M1 for this stuff? Curious what patches you used.

Ack, sorry! Hit submit before I got to finish the comment. Anyway, I really appreciate the kind words - especially since I was feeling a bit down about this one once the deadline hit.

As far as VSTs, I mostly used Logic's stock instruments. The exceptions were for the synth bass and mellotron flute (those were Korg Legacy Collection M1 sounds), the string staccato / pizzicato hits (Taylor Davis violin VST from Cinesamples), the piano (CinePiano from Cinesamples), and the choral pad (Voices of War from Cinesamples). Hope that helps!
