Try to hear the resulting choir in the background during the fade out.

Enjoy!

P.S.: not an April Fool's joke...

Thanks!

I thought I would post this ambiant tune as it sounds like a representation of what dying might sound like. With those angels' voices creeping through in the background near the end. Hear them?

My condolences Paul…

There is nothing better than a mother on the whole of the earth. We all have to go one day, but when your father and mother go away to the other side of things; you fill in a way you need to face life up by yourself like if it was the first time. It is like the last growing up bit to be a woman or a man in this world.

I have not heard the music, it is too late, and I came here rather by chance than on purpose, and so your message. I will nevertheless, review this with care and respect Paul.

A big fellow caudle for you!

Sorry for your loss Paul.
What sound were the vocals using?
They sound Angelic I suppose and I like the effect they have.

this has a sound which reminds me of a bowed clothes airer with treatments or an aeolian wind harp
Its encouraged various visual emotions, Edvard Munch - the Scream, city scapes, outer space and ambient plateaux for example.
The angelic voices at the end reminded me of the voices at the end of Pink Floyds Echos

An ambient relaxing piece good for my Monday morning, Thanks

Paul I played it and was surprised because I expected something softer and sweeter to be truthful in using my words. But who knows… perhaps the experience beyond matter has this particular characteristic for some people through the beginning of the experience.

I found the harmony of the chords somehow obscure. I felt kind of a chilling sensation into my body hearing at the song, and could not link together what I know about death and your song. I think this could be perhaps the beginning of the experience, an introduction to it, but certainly not the whole thing.

For the piece represents the fear that somebody may feel while dying, but after death has gone through your body and you are out of it, floating somewhere, things must be pretty different than described by your song, I modestly understand.

I think that you know me already quite well fellow, and it is clear that I don’t mean to be disrespectful or something like that, least of all in this painful period of your life, I just wanted to tell what I really felt with the song. Thank you for sharing it with us

well, it seems like this captured a feeling or mood, one that might be just about right. i couldn't say what it might mean, though. i'll leave that to you.

the singing flowers on the planet in The Managerie, and Spock smiling over them, comes to mind, then the transporter beam. poisoned by TV again....

Sorry to hear that. Good music. It reminds me of StillStream. You should send it there.
