Opinions on a just completed album? ( Electronica, Ambient, Experimental, Piano, Dark )

I've been working on this off and on for over a year, there's a BUNCH more material but I decided to spread it out over two releases this year.. one to come in the fall.. The track listing contains all of the songs on this new release titled Friction, one free download at the bottom and two preview tracks of the upcoming fall album.

You can listen at my ReverbNation page for now.. the material will be in iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Google Play and all the others within a few weeks.

Your opinions are GREATLY appreciated =) .. I believe three of the tracks are also available on the reverbnation store.

I'm not a fan of electronic music but I like the way you have space and breathing room in your works. The rhythms are sweet, the flow is smooth, and the color is dark and the tones are fresh.
Kudos co-member.

Peace,

I appreciate you taking a listen, especially not being a fan of the genre .. very useful feedback!

Needs more bassline. You could play that in a chillout lounge though where I'm at.

I was in my 20ies in the early 90ies with its very own weird tunes.

One of my all time fav's:

I do appreciate the genre, it's just the monotony of the beats that wear on on me after a few minutes. But your electronic music actually has more structure and natural unfolding. Some of it sounds like it could be a sci-fi soundtrack, evoking cosmic contemplation.

Funny you say that - I actually did score a production for SyFy but the project lost funding before it ever got finished.. I had about 20 tracks of music written up for it .. but I do hear a lot that my music ( even before that ) sounds like a sci-fi score, or that it should be used in a game.

That's not bad at all .. But a little too techno/trance for me .. I do have a couple tunes that are heavier on bass, but I'm definitely open to experimentation .. I still have a lot of work left before the second offering comes out in the fall =) who knows..
