Highly processed and oddly played piano makes up the harmonic base of this piece. Sort sort of ticking clock thing... This is a brash mix, but probably not as bad as you think!

"White Lotus"

Instruments: Metals, Synths, Psaltery, Piano

Feel: Calming, Relaxed

Interesting new age sort of piece, that meets you halfway in the beginning with a lush, but brittle metallic soundscape. As it progresses - the metals fall away, and you're left with a bed of pure sine waves, and a piano tuned exactly to go along with them.

"Symbiosis"

Instruments: Piano, Percussion

Feel: Calming, Dark

Quiet solo piano in 3 parts with additional percussion bit adding in more and more to the end. My normal "feels" that are used to classify pieces are largely inadequate for this piece, as are the genres. In other words... I have no idea what this is.
