Languor

Slow, a somewhat mysterious tranquil piece.

Unusual piece. Quite an enjoyable listen.

Thanks. 'Unusual' and 'enjoyable' are more than fitting as they constitute creative aims.

I agree with "enjoyable" and "unusual." I would also add: pensive, ruminating, ominous, tense. This sounds like midnight music, the soundtrack to insomnia.

I like the feedback sound that comes in around 1:30 with the drum beat. I also like the buzzy electric arc sound that repeats many times through the track.

Thanks ! The feedback-like sounds are for me very close to what a synth can be regarding the expression of a feeling - a common trait associated with natural instruments. It is a 'soundscape' sound from the "Borealis" soundset for Dark Zebra by The Unfinished. The buzzing sound, which is strangely likable, is from the free Zebralette u-he synth. The choir is from Soundiron's "Olympus Micro" samples.

What I find astonishing is the added reverb at the end of the choir. It sounds so great. This is from a Linux (free) plugin whose author has posted here. The plugin is called Panagement. Works well in Mixbus/Ardour.
