Description
This song started as a test of some of the software instruments in GarageBand. When I got to the Metropolis instrument I found it interesting because in a way it also supplies some rythmic elements especially when loooong notes are used. I pushed the record button and played along and hardly noticed time slipping past. It all sounded like a train to me and I added a few supporting sounds to this. The second half is almost the same notes as in the first part, but with another instrument. I still feel they match each other so I kept them both in spite of the 7 minutes 30 seconds result.
It is an ambient piece, so don't hope for too much melody, look for small changes instead or just dream along... To enjoy you should probably not be too stressed out to begin with. It should work pretty well in cars, trains and other transport where you may spend some time.

love how you pan the pads in the early section. the water sounds are a little distracting from the trance. maybe try some reverb to space them out a little.
i really love the non-looped feel of the whole piece too. also the distinct movements give that sense of motion.
