Hi there!I have tried my hand at Ambient/New Age kind of music before some years ago but not with BIAB, so here is a new New Age tune with BIAB. Critiques always welcome. Enjoy.
No time like now

Style is CLOUDS.STY (Clouds - Slow Ev.8 Pop)
Style MIDI Instruments are : Fretless Elec. Bass (36), Acoustic Piano (1), Pad-New Age (89), Crystal (99), All sounds are from my Ketron SD2. Drums are with midi with Power Drums

Hi Mike,

I like al most all genres of music. I've done a lot of ambient have posted very little of it here. That change just before 0:50 was subtle yet added another dimension. And the flute was real nice! Loved it! I always enjoy your instrumentals - this one is terrific!

Nice work on this! It has a very "spacey" sort of vibe, and I loved the change up around the 50 second mark. This tune is super interesting, and had me paying close attention the whole time with all the unique sounds that are present. From the flute, to the interesting drum patterns.

Thanks so much for sharing smile

Thanks, Joe, Alan, J&B,Deryk, Furry, and Scott for your nice comments. I didn't expect such positive reaction. Like I said, I have done this before but not with BIB. I will experiment some more.

Hello, Mike

Very nice melody!
IIm7 - V7 - Imaj7 - VIm7 - VIIm7 - III7 - VIm is one of my favorite chord progressions.
This tune reminds me of Francis Lai strongly.
The tone of the synthesizer playing the main melody is very fitted to this tune.
Very enjoyable listen.

Best regards.

Mike,

Soothing and unlike so much ambient music, continuously interesting! The percussion is very well done - surprising in a good way. Lovely melody as well.
Most enjoyable.
