Howdy,
This song is more "new agey" than true "electronica" (at least as I understand the labels). Anyway, my son Aaron was the inspiration for this piece. He has figured out a way to get the music from one of his favorite computer programs to override the sound on most any of his games (they only have educational ones http://www.notation.com/discus/clipart/happy.gif ), and so that was the grain of inspiration which started this one. As I was messing around with some soundfonts in the file I had started for this, he heard some (the johnnypad 2 and the jungle effects), and he said "Play that again! I like that one!", so we started messing around with more stuff, and after cleaning it up a bit, this was it. I used soundfonts for the recording that I put on my site at www.soundclick.com/beanfieldcastle (http://www.soundclick.com/beanfieldcastle), and this is the .not file that I used for that:
<center><table border=1><tr><td>http://www.notation.com/discus/icons/attachment_icon.gifAaron's meditation at soundclick
Aaron's meditation.not (http://www.notation.com/discus/messages/35939/Aaron_s_meditation-26843.not) (55.4 k)</td></tr></table></center>
I tried re-doing the file a bit for GM sounds, and of course it doesn't sound as nice, but here's a copy of the re-done file:
<center><table border=1><tr><td>http://www.notation.com/discus/icons/attachment_icon.gifAaron's meditation GM version
Aaron's meditation GM.not (http://www.notation.com/discus/messages/35939/Aaron_s_meditation_GM-26844.not) (55.0 k)</td></tr></table></center>
For those who aren't trying out Composer Pro, here are the .mid files for each:
<center><table border=1><tr><td>http://www.notation.com/discus/icons/attachment_icon.gifAaron's meditation at soundclick
Aaron's meditation.mid (http://www.notation.com/discus/messages/35939/Aaron_s_meditation-26845.mid) (4.7 k)</td></tr></table></center>

Aaron's meditation GM.mid (http://www.notation.com/discus/messages/35939/Aaron_s_meditation_GM-26846.mid) (4.6 k)</td></tr></table></center>
Aaron seems to have an innate rhythm going on endlessly - he plays his guitar quite a lot, as well as messing around with the keyboard, dancing a lot, and even when he's being funny, he often sings things to me. And when he's done, he's done http://www.notation.com/discus/clipart/happy.gif
