Checked it out.. Sounds like eerie zylophone music played in caverns
filled with pools of water.. I like it :) It reminds me a lot of some of
the sounds they used in the City of Lost Children sound track. Maybe we
should post more stuff. Its neat hearing what other people compose. It
would be cool to have a web site of Linux composed music. Or maybe a site
with links to various composed (and decomposed) pieces. Some scraps and
bits of stuff. Lates..
