1Overall Description
This is a classical ambient tune - sound effects, pads, slow progression. Consists of several parts, each with a slightly different impression, yet all parts fit well together and create an internal atmosphere. The biggest specialty of this track are tasty electronic sounds, which give you an impression that you can touch them. Probably sounds a bit weird, but true.
The melodies are written out carefully, with nothing out of the place and all the sound effects are so closely blended with music - they're a part of it.
However, no matter how deeply you analyze the tune, it's impossible to say any more than that: this is a very good tune which puts you into another world. The world where you want to stay!
 
2Creativity Description
This is a tune with lots of creativity put in. Slowly progressing, it never repeats itself, everything is always changing.
 
3Artistic License Description
The samples, taken as a whole, work just lovely. Rarely can you see sound effects used so properly with the music and the choice of instruments makes the arrangement stand out.
 
4Sound Quality Description
This is a tracked tune and for a tracked tune the quality is amazing. However, compared to what we are used today, this track misses some stereo surround in the beginning - panning is there but generally the piece is stuck in the center. Later on in the song this changes. Also the track is muddy which makes you want to make it louder and louder to make out details, but it doesn't help.
 
5Does it work as a piece of music Description
It does. With the sense of introduction in the beginning and the feeling of completion in the end, it takes you on a trip and then leaves on the end station, reborn.
