Love it.

Why doesn't everyone else?

[InsertNameHere131]

Haha, glad you do (: I suppose it's because a lot of people find ambient boring :/

Incredible - but too short!

I once made the mistake of playing some of my favourite ambient tracks for a couple of work colleagues. They looked at me like I was nuts, and one of them said "I don't know how you stay awake..." They couldn't understand how enthralling I find this music. For me ambient isn't a sound - it's a place. Listening to it is like going farther and farther into a new, undiscovered landscape.

this is almost like the beautiful start to a 'streets have no name' or 'with or without you'. (which is, incidental, the best bit of both songs).

Zero dislikes. Well, that sums it up :)

[Andrew Zeegers]

that's because they're so darn asleep
