Importante mise en œuvre instrumentale pour ce concept d'une bonne facture .... Mélodie et harmonies particulièrement soignées .... On entend presque le ressac des vagues sur le sable ....

Such retro ambience. Love this. And the percussion is so beautifully produced.

Ephémérie 6 (Extended Orchestral)

I have always admired music, of diverse styles. Like most of us, I have tried learning to play a few instruments at a basic level in my teenage. But it is only now, in the 21st century, that modern software allows anyone to fool around being the composer, the designer of a whole composition, simpler or more complex, organising together the parts of the various instruments - and to hear the results of this experimentation or inspiration instantly! That is how I have recently begun enjoying the distraction of attempts at composing during my leisure, discovering an amazing dimension of life, and art, perhaps the most intangible, heightening and hypnotising one, and the closest to the soul... (21 August 2017) ... Forgot to mention: music is for sharing - that's why we are all here! (4 September 2017)
