The arpeggios at first sound a bit generic, but the crisp snare kick adds an element of surprise, and the synthesizer lead hovering over all of this is surreal, serene, and disarming. I immediately feel myself immersed in a lush, dreamlike environment that can only exist through the mediation of these devices. This is the sort of Muzak I would listen to for hours just to be able to focus, to ground myself, or to meditate. (Who does that any more?) This gets Five Stars for Quality. The dark chords, nebulous in their mood and character, oscillating dynamically between minority and majority, are also a smart choice, and this becomes even more obvious during the martial track. The drum backbeat could use more variation, but it's just subdued enough not to be a blemish but a flourish.
