Still struggle to name the song. Inspired from "Inh lả ơi" NorthWest folk materials. You can imagine the terraced fields landscape in the mid-slow section of the song.

Employed Taiko Drum, Erhu, Guzheng and Dizi Flute. The song itself is quite 'Asian'. Logic Pro did not allow me to sample the Vietnamese Đàn Bầu, pity.

Unnamed no.2

Its not a well polished, presentable composition but I gave in some musical ideas. I wrote this when I was in moody feeling homesick. The missing feeling blended between the natural landscapes, the bonds of people and associated memories. The name of the song is "Vọng" and I think there is no other proper names to label it. 

The beginning of the song recalls by introducing the mantras chanting sound followed by the sound of big Gong. I was influenced by Buddhism philosophies regarding cycle of life, fate and law of attraction and I employed the calm sounds of the Tibet healer bowl. The mid-section I cut loose and try to be immersed by the vivid Kelly green of enormous landscape from Northwest Vietnam rural areas. It goes for wandering a while, support by the delicate woodwinds and then the gong brings us back to the wheel cycle of life.
