Year: 2008

Artist's description:
A companion piece to "Drifting". Also in 7/8, with many of the same stylistic elements. It's much more brooding, however, and simpler in its execution.

Note: play this at *low* volume! The percussion/pad/backing is mean to be *way* back in the mix, with the Duduk (flute) right at the front. :)

Very nice piece with a rather eerie feel! If you're looking for criticism, I'm not sure I'll be able to offer any here.... Read full review

Nice Barry - though you didn't let your flautist breathe!

Thanks for the feedback, Din! I'm glad you liked it. :) // Yes, I am actually thinking about turning this into a series of tracks of the same ilk, tied together by a few common threads... It's a really fun style to write in, because you get to play with pitch bending an awful lot, and the new "World" instruments in Kontakt 3 are much fun. :D

Nice and relaxing. The time signature went mostly unnoticed by me, probably because the rhythm section is pushed deep into the background. This might also sound good with an exotic plucked or strummed string instrument (ahem: sequel). Good stuff :)
