This song is about my obsession with Iceland & my desire to vacation there.  |

This is quite an enjoyable atmosphere piece, but the downside is I can't say just what atmosphere it evokes (I know that sounds daft). It doesn't really suggest 'Iceland' to me, although again, I don't know what would!

If you have a poem, I have a tune, and we exchange these, we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.

Glad you like it Folderol,as I was not sure whether or not I wanted to scrap this song.
As for the way the theme sounds,I suppose that if I had added some metallic sounds-such as a glassy bell-like instrument,then perhaps it may come across differently.

Hey Elv, So your really from Iceland?!! Very cool. I've always preffered colder climates & the landscapes there are very mystical.Iceland's appearance looks like that of a video game or some sort of surreal movie-I'm very fascinated,as Iceland just seems to be like being on another planet. It's also one of the the most enviromentally clean places on Earth & the natural warm springs there is a plus too.  Since my song reminds you of being there,I take that as a very significant compliment & it is much appreciated! Elwood |

So brainwashed from tv, that the first thing that came to my mind when hearing New Jersey, was Sopranos  |

I don't have a cable service,so I don't watch broadcast tv. I only watch movies. If it makes you feel any better,my pictures are not from Caldwell,N.J. There are some vile,disgusting areas in northeastern N.J.-which I steer clear of,but the northwestern,central shore areas and some southern shore areas are actually very nice. I suppose that most everyone outside N.J. would rather see this state blown into the Atlantic by way of a atomic bomb,but it's not all bad as most people make it out to be. |

Hi Elwood Good track and somehow 'mysterious atmosphere' Synth textures and rhytmics works great I'd like to visit Iceland, too. I've always been attracted to that kind of places... Cheers |

Nice track! I do miss something like a solo line a bit, but as it is it's very atmospheric and a good choice of sounds. Cool!

Thom,
This one has some nice elements, and even in it's current state, holds the listener's interest.
A melody or theme to tie it all together and provide some direction would be a welcome addition, but messing with the ambience would be a mistake. I'm very interested to see what you come up with.
Had you considered handing it over to Elv to see where a collaboration might go?
Oren.
