Description

Back in the day when I joined, I posted tunes as fast as I deleted them.Maybe due to my lack of confidence (which still looms) or my mental state at the time...
This little accoustic number was part of something much bigger.Fortunately, I abandoned the idea of an epic (!) and stuck with this little part.
So, I (as always) sent it to Michael 2 and he liked it only then I posted it here.
I remember only Dee1962z commented at the time (I guess it remained online for a week, maybe less) so this is new to almost everyone.
I cleaned the track, added a coda and a new introduction (the previous intro was nothing but the remains of the abandoned epic).
This was a demo and it will always be.It´s nothing special, only my small contribution to this great festival and a safe way to spend time while staying home instead of going to work this monday...

	Peaking Those bell sounds at the beginning nicely foreshadow the gong reverb at the end. I dig the backward vocal tracks; the whole vibe of this thing has me concerned about my mental stability. I've taken a drug, and it will wear off eventually but what changes will come between now and then? Check out my latest song called LIOLI 9 (Interlude)

	Niiice! I love the environment, here. There are a lot of nice layers. Great overlaps towards the end. All comes together in the wash... Check out my latest song called Capitalist's Drag

	So many interesting and mesmerizing sounds that I got lost in the whole piece as if I was lost in a dark maze, at night, but sure that if I keep trying, there will be an opening back into the world. Completely different and worthwhile. Thanks. Check out my latest song called Break Away (Mark Holbrook & Awigze)

	Very cool Love the sonic dissonance and the ethereal, haunting vocal. The sound washes over you, and the backwards effect works very well. A very cool, kind of psychedelic piece. Nicely done. Peace. Check out my latest song called Across the Wire (MJRF)
