This album is so beautiful. Mood reminds me of some kind of soundtrack for a movie about self-discovery. The kind of music you just want to wake up listening to for that tackle the world mentality. Really beautiful musical sequences with dreamy ambience. This is a really great instrumental album.
1. (1:20) Beautiful guitar opening to a great rest of the album.
2. (2:51) More dreamy string work with light percussion.
3. (5:53) Throws in a little vocalization for musical depth.
4. (5:05) Cool beeps in the middle sequence of this one.
5. (1:55) Nice, easy going acoustic guitar and piano accompaniment.
6. (5:14) Somewhat of a gloomy piano opening.
7. (12:00) Cool guitar and synth combination in this one. Cool battle tone.
8. (4:11) Mixes in some recordings of people talking.
9. (8:30) Happy song with electronic instrumentations.
10. (5:11) Continues with the electronic style from the previous one. A little slower percussion.
11. (6:05) Very spacey, sci-fi stuff. Cool mad scientist work music.
12. (5:37) Back to the dreamy ambience from earlier in the album.
13. (3:47) Ends on an electronic note. Upbeat music with some male vocalizations.
