"The Crystal Vale" genre: Mood Music

	Once a year, the sun discovers a magical place: a vale filled with beautiful crystals. As the sun's rays pass over the valley, each gem begins to sing. Soon, the vale is ringing with shimmering, ever-changing song. But, after a few bittersweet moments, the sun leaves the vale, and the crystals return to their slumber once again, lying in wait for next year - their next opportunity to sing.
	Story Behind the Song I found a basic synth loop, layered and transposed several, and panned them individually, to simulate the sun passing over the vale. This song has gone through several permutations, including a version that was over 8 minutes long... too static for mood music, too short for minimalism! =)
