It is crazy, this song was not here this sunday morning. I picked it out of the cosmic neighborhood and planted it into the OP1. I did only one mix and I do not want to have another version of it. I feel like I could have taken any other gear instead today, I would have done well, because the vibrations are good finally. at the moment I can enjoy making music again and also discover beautiful moments on the records I lately bought, what I did not experience for a longer time. the reason must be, I finally quitted my job as intensive-care-nurse in the emergency department this week, after 32 years in the job. I unfortunately got ill and I was suffering there since a long time. I had to get out of it and have to start something more tolerable and normal. of cause the work enables my music and everything else, but it became so depressing and unhuman for me. I feel better and lighter now, with a little sentimental look back, but a greater view into the future for shure. music is some kind of therapy for me right now and helps me to focus into some pretty nice dimensions. cheers!

32 years is a long time and I can imagine that would be a very intense job.  You've certainly put in your time and I wish you the best of luck on whatever endeavor you take on next.  I feel like I can feel the lightness coming through in this track.  It sounds like freedom, hope, and optimism.

Congrats on new horizons! This track is beautiful, breathes of hope and dreams-come-true with a tasty side of excitement and mischief heart

congratulations on letting go of a job that wasn't giving you joy. I'm happy for you. coincidentally, I'm doing the same, although I haven't been there for that long.
very cool harmonies you found here.
enjoy all the great new experiences in store and savor those wonderful moments.

Impressed you have been able to stick with it for as long as you have, especially after the last 2 years! Hope you can heal now!

Congrats & enjoy! Love the improvised nature of this one.

32 years in that kind of intensive and very stressful environment is a lot of hard work! But also a lot of service towards human beings. I hope now you can relax and enjoy something new.

Beautiful sounds in this track again. The subtle percussions are really nice, having a beautiful subtle texture. You posted a few weeks ago a video of yourself playing with different instruments and objects to produce the music. It reminded me videos of foley artists that have these cupboards full of wonderfull mish mash objects that produce all these wonderful sounds. It's like an antique shop, where you open a drawer and have coins, little swiss knives, packs of cards, sewing kits, and all of this is used to make sounds. This music captures the joy of serendipidity and sense of serene calm.

wow thank you for your service q-rosh! it's so nice to hear the lightness in this track
so glad music i helping you process and heal - it is so magic that way isn't it?
sending you

from across the pond heart

beautiful bubbly sounds, feels like there's a lot of heart in the piece! and amazing to read about your story! I really wish you the best from the bottom of my heart! sounds like an amazing thing to work 32 years in the healthcare system, you should feel so proud. On another note, doing something a bit more low intensity and spending more time on music is a great way forward - both for yourself and for everybody who gets to listen!

the wind instruments are so nice - some kind of mellotron? I just snatched the mellowsound iOS app cause it was on sale, gonna be fun to play with it. even the glitches in this piece sound kinda pleasant! big_smile

Truly a cosmic gift to us all

I’m very happy for you, great you can make that move understanding it is the best decision for your body and mind.  Healthcare can be very draining and exhausting.  Beautiful piece of music, you always have a great way of pulling together these nostalgic melodies that remind us of the past but have hope for things to come.

Super trippy.  Sounds like old mellotron flutes and string swells behind all the glitchy textures.  Like SGT Pepper meets Twilight Zone! Sorry to hear about the job and illness but sounds like it's for the best.  This track is bursting forth with positivity and wonder. An indication of next steps in life. 

Yes, a trippy, magic little journey, just in time for your new journey. Some really cool sounds in here, like many of yours it makes my minds float to the places of creative wonder.
Much respect to you for quitting a job that did not feel good, seems like a good choice! and best wishes to you on the next phase, so glad it feels good so far and that the universe is giving you good sounds and feelings, yes music is a great therapy for us!

Def hear ya on the music is therapy.  Glad to hear the music is helping you too.  I love the child-like feel of the vibes.  They transform into a kaleidoscope of sounds.  The percussive elements with the chord sustains gave me some slo-mo-firework visuals.  Love that mellotronny sound.
