A slow tempo chillout track with a glacial feel in the trebles and a glowing warmth in the low end - essentially a mix of brittle sounding, reverbed keys and textures over cosy minimalist piano, drums and bass. Very calming, even with the juxtaposing temperature issues.

Calm background track to accompany all sorts of folky, farmy things. Agriculturally simple, yet effective at creating an ambience of life's gentle meanderings, it pushes forward through a lilting tempo and bouncy folk guitar, accentuated by various organic instruments for an earthy and at times, fantasy feel. Honest and quietly optimistic.

A soft piano piece that slowly travels through a variety of emotions. Gently paced with a subtle, modern background beat that drops in and out, it has cinematic qualities due to the added string orchestration and reverb, and a slight lift near the end as arpeggiated acoustic guitar enhances the atmosphere. Soothing thanks to the soft instrumentation and tempo, airy and floating from background textures and uncomplicated thanks to the simplicity of the piano, it has all the features of a relaxing, meditative track with a modern touch.

Having a deep and emotional atmosphere this music immediately opens a whole world to empathize with.

Melancholic ambience with an indie chill vibe. Blending reverbed guitar with synth pads for an airy, spacey feel creates a bed of dark warmth for the female vocal to glide on.

This is a thoughtful, gentle and breezy acoustic track - just effortlessly gliding along on a cloud of tranquility without a care in the world as it contemplates the wholesome nature of existence with a calming introspection.

A mysterious mix of classical and electronic styles to create a solemn, ambient vibe. A pulsing kick drum beat adds tension and movement under the suspense of light strings and an enchanting female vocal melody, enhanced by light brass, harp and vibraphone to blossom into the finale.

The 528 Hertz solfeggio frequency is also known as the frequency of health and longevity. And this is quite a long 8 minutes of haunting, penetrating, meditational soundscape.

Epic ambient piece with huge pads and piano melody.

Spacey, ethereal track.

This very intimate solo piano describes the torn feelings of homesickness, the sadness but also the precious memories.

An indie folk-rock song featuring soft-spoken male vocals, acoustic and electric guitar layers

Deeply atmospheric, ambient track. Soaked in reverb for a spacey and dreamlike feel, it features clean electric guitar melodies and broken chords over synth pads and piano. A light percussive rhythm lends a fluidity and forward movement and helps build a slight intensity, creating a change in dynamics and feeding the listener a vibe of wonder and mysticism. Cinematic and very, very pensive.

Ambient Western track, in no hurry to get anywhere in particular. Soaking up the desert heat at walking pace, it's a beautifully constructed mix of shimmering strummed electric guitar chords, tremolo and slide leads, whistles and harmonica that oozes Americana. Percussive hand drums add some horse flavours to the theme, a theme that at times is sad and nostalgic, at others more comfortable in its solitude, but portrays a lot more than just cowboys and saddle sores.
