MINDS AND MUSIC MINDS AND MUSIC Ambient AtmospheresAlbum Theme: Ambient Atmospheres. Listen to Walled Gardens, Fine Art Galleries, Low Density and Punctuations. Is it quiet enough for you to be able to hear the sound of a pin drop in your current surroundings? If so, what kind of a sound would that make? Would it sound like the sound of something trying not to make a sound? Or would it be so faint that your ears wouldn't be able to hear it at all? AMBIENT ATMOSPHERES magnifies various outside and inside background settings without distracting its listeners from what they are in the middle of actually doing. Moving and stationary images will remain in the foreground of the viewers mind and these sparse yet intriguing tracks will serve as a warm encasing around the entire picture. This is most definitely music for thought. |
