I remember when I heard this shortly after you posted I was absolutely blown away. Really interested to see how a more critical listen goes and so far it's pretty much the same. Just excellent.

All the sounds are audible. No wall of sound. They sit in the right places. Musicianship.

Elegant and emotional. Really great stuff.

Great intro of sound variety. Lovely keys, in the middle section. The disco-like chords progression in the third section detracts a little from the previous athmosphere.

So many excellent sounds, impressive use of the synth.

nice how you've swung through the movements, really good job

I love this melodic phrase by the EP and this section quite a lot!

Three Movements Of A Complex Pendulum

Leo Amaral - Three Movements Of A Complex Pendulum

"Watch... as a young ambitious camel, dreaming of getting both very rich AND entering the Kingdom of Heaven, sets off on an epic journey in search of the Big Giant Needle. A tale of dusty plains, dazzling cities and, of course, genies and bottles. Will The Eye remain shut...or open to reveal it's wonders ?"
