Thanx so much Janne. I'm not so sure about that talented mind comment.

Hi, Mario !:))

....and a Happy New Year to you too !

Now, you took me on a trip thru space
a very delightful one may I say and
Space Odyssey came to my mind but
it is Mario allthru - really superbly
done !:)

Film music without a doubt - but
a special film naturally - maybe that
long journey to mars ?

Cheers
Dani

Nice demonstration of where BiaB can take one.

We completely agree with floyd's comment regarding marketing this tune.

Heck, we've had blues rock songs licensed and I know there is a MUCH larger market for this smile

Well done ... again.

Mario,

You are leading the way with these "experimental" type song generations from the program! This piece is certainly mesmerizing and has a tremendously good sound to it! I don't have to be meditating or in a yoga class to appreciate your work here! I grew up in the 60's and 70's but the LSD thing passed me by! I smile every time I listen to something you post! Thanks, Torrey

Thanx Dani. A lot of people think my music is fit for the movies. But I doubt any movie producer will ever show up in this little hamlet where I live grin

Thanx J&B. Did you register your songs with the patent department? I'm thinking about doing a CD with this kind of music.

{edit} - We probably should carry this conversation via PMs.

You, Mario, are such a mind trip yourself. Love your creativity, man. You're one of those special folks that shun LSD because it would only bring you down from your own glorious mind trip. Thanks for sharing. Yes, I love that about this program, how it encourages us to explore new options in our writing, and you do a great job of following your muse.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hello Mario
I am really speechless
This is really absolute top class
When I heard it for the first time I closed my eyes and suddenly saw underwater shots in front of me.
I found this so exciting that I watched a whale video on youtube without sound and played your song to it.
Awesome, Mario
This is just perfect
So if I would make underwater films then I would already know who composes my music to it ;-)
Give it a try... as an example take this whale short film :

Great work, Mario
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

This is great Mario. Terrific sounds and so peaceful.
I was going to describe it as ethereal but then I checked my trusty thesaurus.
So, this song is heavenly, airy, divine, celestial, fragile and ethereal.
