Oh Lord Jesus Christ! I love this song... I've never heard of MoeRD before,but this song proves at least to me that he is one helluva tracker. Especially from the musical point of view. This song is simple, yet so beautiful that I just have to listen to this over and over again...*sigh* This soft piece of music starts with a lovely,but simple pianopattern. It is followed by some strings, that fill the air slowly. But just when I started to enjoy this song, the artist still adds amazingly lovely choirstrings and at this point I'm so sold that...Gaah! Basically this song is nothing more than piano and strings, but for me it works perfectly - I never even expected any percussions to appear. Chords and that same piano that travels through this song works fine for me. Despite the fact that there ain't lots of samples, there is plenty of variation in this song. The athmosphere in this song almost gave me the chills and the feeling that this track gave to me is something very strong. Maybe the artist had some personal feelings behind this song. For me it sounds like that. But let us not speculate these things. Let's just sit back, relax and enjoy from this wonderful piece of music, but first remember to add some volume since this sounds better with high volume.=) Well, well, well... Artist only used 10 instruments, but that was enough for him / her. 8-bit quality sometimes means blury sounds,but not this time, everything sound great. There wasn't used effects almost at all. Just some fadings and volume settings, but who needs those into this style of music? I don't. Technical side suffers a bit from the lack of technics,but it would be unfair to judge this song because of that. So, I will give a 9 to this, but it might actually be even worth 9.5.=)
