A hypnotic and meditative ambient composition composed/produced in September 2013 employing: analog synthesis, granular synthesis, minimal acoustic piano, and lots of reverb and spatialization from 2CAudio B2 and Aether. This piece is on the more human and emotional side of the Wayfarer spectrum.  It represents returning to something innately familiar to us all after some form of long journey.  What that journey is, and what is being returned to, and whether this is metaphorical or literal is for you to decide.  I invite you all to co-create your own narrative, and explore wherever the journey takes you...  There is plenty of space here to fill in the blanks, and there is no wrong answer...

Wayfarer is a project name Andrew Souter uses for the deepest of deep ambient space music. This is music that is meant to invoke a sense of traveling without moving to remote and unknowable reaches of outer and inner space. Wayfarer projects are more sound environments than music in the traditional sense. They are intended to invoke a sense of ineffable awe at the magnificence of the universe, and give a fleeting sense of connection to some form of universal non-human intelligence. Despite, or rather perhaps because of, its humble abstract nature, this is meditative music that implicitly asks big questions, and hopefully inspires big ideas.

"Whitespace" is the first of the Wayfarer series. This two hour sonic odyssey is a collection of thematic and textural ambient deep cruisers that are certain to be the impetus of a myriad forms of outward journeys and inward discoveries. The atmospheric, mood-inducing soundscapes of Whitespace make a perfect compliment to mediation, relaxation, deep concentration, lucid dreaming, quiet introspection, various spiritual practices, star gazing, and various other formative life experiences. To borrow words from Stephen Hill, founder of Hearts Of Space, this is "slow music for fast times".
