Here is another one I did, also remixed and remastered since it was last posted.

Comments are welcome.

Amazing!
Another break from the mundane and cliches.
It is amazing how well you can express your ideeas and feelings with music. The notes are so simple yet the whole composition is very complex.
Fascinating!

Thanks for your support. It means a lot to me. I know I can not please everyone but it is nice to please some people.

I'm genuinely impressed and not biased in any way.

braincell thats really great!

which synths did you use for the intro synth?

The way you use the sounds is perfect....
nice electronic sounds... and very classic sounding.

I would call it "abstract elctronic style"

Congrats!

Thanks, I feel a little less depressed now.

It's a problem not fitting into a category for internet radio air play I have discovered.

I have found that I can not make great music when I am shackled by the confines of a genre. My philosophy is to try anything and improvise a lot in order to reach into my subconscious mind.

I couldn't tell you which synths I used because I did this so long ago. Perhaps if you are more specific. I own so many of them now, both hardware and software. I sometimes use free VSTi synths and effects, especially SIR convolution reverb at the time I made this.

That's exactly what I felt. So many musicians online are trying to imitate a certain genre, beat or style with song that are meaningless, trivial or that don't convey anything of importance or that hasn't been said. You on the other hand are arranging songs in an unexpectedly delightful fashion. The remarkable thing I am impressed with the most is the unexpected juxtaposition of totally different parts of the song or styles, strange or ominous parts juxtaposed to mellow parts, to create songs that convey ideas in very powerful way. Your songs definetly are chalenging the music status quo.
This is the best I can describe it.

That is really nice to hear. Thank you so much!

By the way someone else who didn't like it at all in another group described it as "psychotic".

He's just jelous and possibly stuck to one genre (a genre bigot)

Besides "psychosis" is a human characteristic not something that can be ascribed to songs.

lol,
music is also some sort of process...

how often did I start with something in mind and ended up in something completly different and maybe even more impressive....

its all about emotions and how you put them down in sounds...
