Ambientstudy4.wmv

This is an older composition that was done with the help of my friend Michael Mish. He did the mixing, recorded the actual Tibetan Bowls (not synth bowls), and added the ah choir and ocean sounds with his own synthesizer. I played the Tibetan bowls that were recorded. Most of the pictures were from SpaceWeather.com, mainly about the auroras, special eclipses, and noctilucent clouds. Several pictures are from Facebook friends who posted there and gave me permission to use their pictures. I took a few of them from the field near where I live. The movie was created with Windows Movie Maker. The main purpose of these studies to show some of the sonic building blocks that I use in the larger compositions. I like making the actual sounds themselves. I think part of ambient music is that it is based on how our consciousness receives the actual frequencies, that the tones themselves are beautiful enough so that the note or pitch is secondary to this, and that the music is layered so that the tones are harmonically rich. I feel that consciousness can pull what it needs from this richness. Some ambient music is mostly arhythmic, has no rigid melodic patterns, nor has the notes fit into a tight structure. I intend all the compositions to be conducive to shifting brainwaves to higher coherence, to assist meditaiton, and to support emotional healing.

@shahilagh Thank you for your thoughts. I appreciate feedback on how the sounds are experienced. The sounds themselves are very peaceful, but the Tibetan Singing Bowls "vibrate in the ethers" and do sometimes hook into our fears, inside our body (mainly our belly area and sometimes images floating in our brains). Hopefully, they are surfacing and dissolving within the ambient field. It may help to do some gentle conscious breathing, expanding/relaxing the belly on inhale/exhale.

nice. i could study with it for a while, without being distracted ....athough, sometimes, the sounds made me feel insecure,, but frequencies are strong
